Hello, hope you are doing well!

question: can a pregnancy caused by a small amount of sperm, carried by a finger to the vulva region (mainly in the clitoris) cause pregnancy? My boyfriend did this to me, but he didn't insert his fingers inside my vagina, btw. He was just a little scared because he ejaculated (outside, away from my body) and might have a small amount of sperm on his hand. He did this right after cumming

Hi saralacava,

So, sperm is fragile, and it can't survive the trip from penis to hand to vulva/vagina (usually with one or more stops along the way). So, unless he ejaculated on his hand and then immediately rubbed that on your vulva or inserted it into your vagina, you can assume that there was no pregnancy risk from this.

I can't be sure if there was any sperm (even because he did it outside me, and not on his hands), but if there was, it was very, very little! And he must have touched some other part of my body before that, too

Okay, in that case you can go ahead and assume that there was no risk from this. If you, or he, is still feeling anxious, the next step would be to walk through this piece and follow the suggestions it makes: The Pregnancy Panic Companion
