pregnancy scare … need a bit of advice!

Unread post by liljjonthebeat »

hi!

two days ago, my bf and i were engaging in some sexual acts. these were the conditions:

- no penetration.
- no fingering.
- my bf did cum, and it did get on my hands. i rinsed them with cold water for a while, but then, i scratched my butt and the area not directly where my vagina is, but close by right afterwards.
- i was wearing shorts and underwear, as well as a t shirt. i got a bit wet, but there was nothing crazy.

is there a chance i could be pregnant? i am just super worried and paranoid bc im 20, and i definitely do not want to be.

thank you so much!

Hi liljjonthebeat,

There is no chance you are pregnant since there wasn't direct genital contact and you were clothed. Any sperm you might have had on your hands wouldn't survive long enough to do anything by the time you scratched.

Here are some helpful resources for your situation and to learn what can and cannot lead to pregnancy:
