A member asked:

If you are on the pill, can you get pregnant from pre cum?

Yes it is possible: The pill is very effective at preventing pregnancy. You are possibly having unprotected intercourse and the withdrawal method is also somewhat effective. So if you are on the pill and practicing a withdrawal method, then the chance of pregnancy is extremely low, but never zero!

Small chance if take: properly. Most studies have shown low levels of sperm or no sperm in pre-ejaculate with sperm not being motile (however, don't know how promptly samples were examined). One small study published in 2011 showed that there are some individuals with a high motile sperm count in pre-ejaculate. See: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3564677/
