A member asked:
If you have a hernia due to the strain from constipation , and if you swallow semen would it cause any harm? or is there a chance of getting pregnant m?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swallowing semen will not result in pregnancy. You do take the risk of getting sexually transmitted infections, e.g. gonorrhea. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time. You may consider implanted contraceptive or an IUD.
