Pregnancy

If the condom broke – which is the only way semen would be coming out of the bottom of the condom – then you were at a high risk of pregnancy. On the other hand, if your boyfriend seemed to think the condom looked intact, but just had fluids on the outside/bottom of it, he may have been mistaking…

If you feel you are at risk for an accidental pregnancy and are past the 120 hour mark for emergency contraception, you can wait until 10 days after the incident or after the first day your period is late to take a pregnancy test. It is much more likely to have a false negative pregnancy test than…

Depending on when exactly you ovulate, that may not have been a safe time at all. Some people ovulate fairly early in their cycles, so for those people – let’s say someone who ovulates on day 10, and had unprotected sex on day 7 – that would have been a very high risk time. Please understand that…

If it seems just like your period normally does – with the same level of flow, for instance – then it is very unlikely you are pregnant. Rarely, a test will show what is called a “chemical” pregnancy, especially when tests are taken on the early side. In other words, it can test positive when an…

In short, yes, that lubrication can result in pregnancy. Penises release special fluid during sexual arousal in order to lubricate and neutralize the inside of the urethra (the duct in the penis where urine and sexual fluids are released). This helps assist the sperm as they make their exit during…

Condoms are ONLY reliable birth control when they are used for ALL direct genital contact, from start to finish. If you have intercourse without a condom, and only put a condom on later on, then you can’t depend on condoms to protect you against pregnancy (or STIs), since it is possible for pre…

Thankfully, there is no direct connection between one’s genitals and their mouth. So no, kissing (of any sort) will not lead to pregnancy. The right bits of anatomy are just not in the right location for that to occur. Similarly, there’s nothing about manual sex (‘fingering’) that could cause…

It’s tough for me to give you a solid answer on this one, because you weren’t very clear on what you were actually doing. Sometimes, when a person says they haven’t had “full” intercourse, or “full” penetration, they mean they haven’t had whatever their idea of that is. In other words, a person who…

Unless his sperm came equipped with flame throwers and chain saws, it’s pretty much impossible that it could make it through that many layers of clothing! Sperm can be pretty hearty, but all of those layers are more than they could ever survive through. So no, you have no pregnancy risk from the…

Sperm are pretty hardy, but they’re not superheroes. It is unlikely that they would survive a move from the inside of your pants unless your hand was literally dripping with pre-ejaculate. If your hands were dry, then it is pretty safe to say that there is not a pregnancy risk from the contact your…
