A member asked:

Should i be worried about being pregnant from pre-sperm and possibly a small amount of sperm from unprotected sex 4 days before ovulation?

Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Ovulation: The sperm that cause pregnancy are the sperm inside of the vagina on any of the five days leading up to ovulation. So, yes. Absolutely.
