Why is precum under "no risk"
I am a new visitor of this website, and I encountered the article about why do I think I'm pregnant. Under that article is the risk of pregnancy due to precum and it says that it has no risk and that you are not pregnant, but knowing that precum could contain some sperm should it be under low risk and not no risk? Or are there some things that I should know and realize that makes precum not being a risk? Thank you.

Re: Why is precum under "no risk"
Hey Nox -- do you remember what article on our site you were reading? Was it by chance You're Not Pregnant. Why Do You Think You Are? This article does not say that pre-cum does not have any risk, because you are correct, it does. But this only applies to vaginal sex. What this article says is that there is no risk when you have pre-cum on your hands and you are engaging in manual sex like hand jobs or fingering. There are only trace amounts of sperm in pre-cum to begin with, and they do not survive on an outside surface like skin for very long.
I assumed that's what you were reading based on your post. if you're referring to something else on the site, we're happy to take a look.
