If there was: Ejaculate, about 20% to 25%. However, pre-ejaculate can contain a low concentration of sperm, no sperm or for some individuals the concentration of sperm is high. Thus, the chances are lower with pre-ejaculate. Use protection every time if you are not ready for pregnancy.

Poor Odds: Pure Precum does not contain sperms.So it is not possible to get pregnant with precum.Only outside chance is if there are any left over sperms from previous ejaculation which may contain few sperms

A 23-year-old female asked:
Could pre ejaculation get you pregnant 5 days before ovulation?

Yes: There can be sperm (not many) found in pre-ejaculate fluid, so women can get pregnant even when ejaculation occurs outside of the vagina if not wearing a condom. There may not be any sperm in pre-ejaculate however. You should get a pregnancy test to be sure, although in all likelihood you are not pregnant.

See comment: It is hard to guess when ovulation occurs unless you use dipstick, or have a reliable temp. Chart, or do a blood test.....
Anyone who can answer this correctly is guessing.
