Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

Me and my boyfriend were dry humping, and he had some precum that touched my shorts. I was wearing nylon cycling shorts and a pair of underwear, but he wasn’t wearing anything. Is there any chance I could get pregnant from this? I'm really worried.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

The chances of pregnancy in this scenario are extremely low, as sperm typically cannot travel through multiple layers of clothing. However, if you miss your period, it’s important to take a pregnancy test to be sure. If you’re still concerned or have irregular cycles, consider consulting a doctor for further guidance. Speaking with a trusted healthcare professional or an elder can also provide reassurance and support.

 

Thanks
