A member asked:

If you have sex without protection, but you don't go to the end with your partner, can you get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Even though you do not ejaculate, there is usually some release of seminal fluid and sperm that can cuase pregnancy to occur. Protection is still recommended to prevent unwanted pregnancy.

Can you get pregnant off of pre-cum? My partner and I did not have sex, and I gave him oral and he finished. I sat and watched T.V and then took a shower. Could the sperm be dead by then? It hit air. My hands touched the water and got body wash?
