pre-cum

A cornucopia of "Can I get pregnant if...?"

Scared asks:

Does precum contain enough sperm to get you pregnant if you have sex when its present? Also, if the guy pulls out and the cum gets all over your vagina and the a few minutes later he re-enters you, is that a pregnancy risk? My friends have told me that it's impossible, but I don't know. I'm scared, please help!

If we're just rubbing genitals, are there still risks?

Gena N. asks:

Hi I'm a 17 year old girl and I've been sexually active with my boyfriend for a few months. We always use condoms. But recently we have been trying this new thing where I sit on him, facing him (naked obviously) and his penis is straight up and we just kinda rub up and down for a little bit. He always pees before we do stuff cause I hear that lowers pre-cum risk and also I always watch his penis as we do this so I can make sure I see nothing coming out. Also, My vagina never touches the head, it just rubs the base. Is there a pregnancy risk here? I thought it sounded safe but I still wanted to know for sure. If it's not we'll stop!

But then he put a condom on, is there still a risk?

Griz asks:

So this all started a month ago, I had been on my period for five days and I had sex with my boyfriend during my period. Around four days later we had sex again. Then we had it once more a week after. He usually goes in me for like 15-30 seconds without a condom, and then he puts a condom on. We've been thinking that I am pregnant, but instead of going anywhere to get checked, we're just waiting for me to get my period, because he thinks he didn't pre-ejaculate and I didn't know you couldn't feel pre-ejaculation until I read other peoples questions and your answers. We're just so afraid that I might be pregnant. We're both young and not ready for a baby. I AM SO SCARED! I can't even explain I have a bright future ahead of me. Is there a possibility I can be pregnant? I am going to keep waiting for my period its supposed to come next week, but what do I do? I am so afraid to even think about it. PLEASE HELP ME!!!! What are early signs of pregnancy?

Is there REALLY a pregnancy risk from fingering?

fender12345 asks:

Hi Scarleteen community,

Me and my girlfriend are super scared. But after reading a lot of stuff "online" it seems like our problems is solved, but not quite. This began almost last week when I finger my girlfriend. (we are both virgins). We are scared to death now she could be pregnant. I remembered inserting my whole finger into her vagina and I don't remember if I had any precum on my finger. (Definitely not cum). But the precum could be very minimal and If there was any I would of probably whipped it on myself before entering her vagina because I really do respect her and I would never ever want to do anything to get her pregnant because we are both not ready for that yet. Is there a minimal chance that she could be pregnant? I hear answers all over the internet from "50/50" to "1 in a million if the precum was less than 1 inch", but I still am not sure, and she won't be getting her period for another 3 weeks. Is been really frustrating so far... and today she spotted "1 drop" or blood on her panties. She kept telling me that it was no more than "1 drop", could this be a sign to anything? And again I searched on internet and all these answers saying "she's pregnant", "1 drop means nothing". Can anyone give me a clear answer? is really no more than 1 drop of blood. Please...any help will be great, me and my girlfriend is having a really difficult time right now.

P.S: I also heard pregnancy test could tell us the result right away? If so where can I buy them at?

Thank you everyone's help!! Any help IS appreciated..

When does pre-cum come out of a guy's penis?

Love11 asks:

When does pre-cum come out of a guy's penis? Does it come out when he gets an erection or does it come out when he is actually having sex? Does it depend on the guy?

My boyfriend doesn't get pre-cum!

Love11 asks:

Is it possible that some boys just don't pre-ejaculate. I don't believe that my boyfriend ever does. I have checked multiple times to see if there is ever anything on the tip of his penis after he gets an erection and there is never anything there. Also, does pre-ejaculate always contain sperm?

Can dried ejaculate get me pregnant?

Love11 asks:

This may sound very stupid. My boyfriend fingered me twice the day after my period ended last month. I never gave him a hand-job and he says no pre-cum ever came out of his penis when he got an erection. He washed his hands thoroughly before I came to his house and he took a shower. The last time he ejaculated was 24 hours ago when he masturbated in his bed. The first time he fingered me was about an hour after I arrived at his house (mostly just heavy petting, no penetration). The second time was about 2 hours after the first time. He went to the bathroom and washed his hands before this. This time he stuck his finger in about 2 inches for a few seconds. He also ate me out for a few seconds. I got what seemed to be my normal period except for the fact that breasts hurt for 2 weeks beforehand instead of the usual 1 week and my period was about a day short. My breasts stopped hurting once my period started.
Could I have become pregnant from any dry sperm that was left on his bed sheets from him masturbating the night before?

Pre-ejaculate, could I be pregnant?

kendra asks:

If you don't know that your partner pre-came and you were having sex...but then 2 weeks later you didn't have your period could that be that I'm pregnant or could it be other things??

Manual sex + pre-ejaculate = real pregnancy risk?

Lucy asks:

I'm 17 and my boyfriend (16) and I have been dating for 2 years. We have decided to not have intercourse, but we do have manual sex sometimes. The last time we fooled around was about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks ago. I had my period last week, and it was on time, but only red blood for 2 days; then it was pinkish brownish stuff. Today and yesterday I've been peeing nonstop. My boyfriend doesn't think he pre-cums, ever, but I did feel something at the tip of his penis--was it urine maybe? I'm worried that maybe he had pre-cum on his fingers when he touched me (he went in pretty deep) or that I touched myself with it using the bathroom. I'm really worried that I'm pregnant; please help.

I took EC one day, and then the condom broke the next. Am I at risk?

mm12 asks:

Okay, I am really frustrated. My boyfriend and I had unprotected sex 2 days ago. He pulled out, but I was still worried so I went ahead and got EC the next day and took it. I felt a lot better about the whole scenario. Then, the day after THAT, my boyfriend and I had sex again, this time with a condom. He literally JUST went in when he said he felt something funny and pulled out right away and noticed it ripped a little. I FREAKED OUT. He probably had it on wrong or something. I don't know what to do now. He didn't ejaculate inside of me but the chance of pre-cum scares me to death. He did go pee before, so does that mean there was probably not any pre-cum? I can't get EC AGAIN. I just took it the day before and I don't have another $45 on me. Plus, I'm only 17 so I got a friend of mine who is 18 to get it for me and I don't wanna ask him again. Am I freaking out too much? Are my chances of pregnancy pretty low? Oh, and don't worry we both don't have any STI's (he got tested and I was a virgin before him). That's at least one less thing to worry about.

Is there a risk from dry pre-ejaculate?

Eric asks:

If I had somehow (which I don't think I did) got pre-cum on my fingers, and then immediately wiped it off, and it was completely dry, and I then poked my girlfriend a few hours later, what would be the chances of pregnancy?

Dry sex that isn't dry at all.

Turquoise asks:

I've never really had sexual intercourse, and hence I would say my hymen is still in tact. But the other day my partner and I had dry sex, unclothed, and he might have had his pre-cum on my vaginal area. So is there a chance I could get pregnant, even though i'm still really a virgin?

Unprotected sex and pre-ejaculate: is there a risk?

Stephanie asks:

I just had unprotected sex for like 5 mins on the last day of my period, and my partner had pre-cum before we had sex, is there a highly risk that I can get pregnant?

Is there still a risk if I don't orgasm?

DarkyDark asks:

I am uncircumcised and I was wondering, there isn't anyway that if you have intercourse that sperm won't come out while inside of her unless you reach orgasm right? Like if I'm having sex with a girl and I'm not using a condom there's no way that anything could seep out without reaching a orgasm. Just want to make sure, because condoms don't feel the best when having intercourse.

What's that fluid?

Ediohgbv asks:

Recently, my boyfriend and I have engaged in sexual activities. Not sex, but just touching & rubbing of the genitals, etc, as we are too young for sex, or anything. I was touching my boyfriends penis, and there was this liquid there, and I have no clue what the hell it is. His penis wasn't erect or anything, so it couldn't have been sperm, so I have no clue what it could be.

Do you know what it could be?
