I’ve been on the birth control patch (ortho evra) for over a year now and my boyfriend and I recently had intercorse and he ejaculated inside me a bit, and I am a couple days from having my week 4 (the week I don’t wear a patch and menstrate). Is there any chance I could get pregnate? Am I still protected against pregnancy? Should I go get Plan B?

As long as you have been using your patches consistently and correctly, yes, your protection is still effective during you period week (week without a patch). Just remember to replace your patch when its due. You do not need to take Plan B, and chance of pregnancy is unlikely.
