Confused about pregnancy risks?
Recently my boyfriend and I engaged in some dry sex and while I am not extremely worried about getting pregnant, I am a little confused.
My pants came off as he started giving me oral after a few minutes and after I finished, he came too. I'm not sure if the cum landed on the inside of my underwear but it got me thinking. If a few spots of cum got the inside of underwear and I rewore it, is pregnancy possible? I am aware sperm cannot swim through clothing but as this is inside the clothing and touching my vulva, does it pose a risk? Just a little confused here and want some clarity that's all!
Thank you!
