I ejaculated on my hands and rinsed it really quickly for about 30 seconds without soap. i then fingered my wife who ovulated 5 days after. what chances are there for her to get pregnant?

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Very, very, very low: Lasting 5 days is possible, but not common. Finger insertion w/ no propelling fluid/force is possible but not common. Rinsing under water enough to not be thickly coated may leave some, but not much. The combo of ALL these really lower it - but .00001 is NOT 0!

Chances of preg: if you rinsed off your hand---pretty slim chance of pregnancy wouldn't be easier to get on some birth control--less chance of a suprize
