A member asked:

Can you get pregnant from sperm on fingers?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Yvette Westford answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Unlikely: Pregnancy becomes possible when live sperm is placed inside the vagina of an ovulating female. Although technically possible, it is highly unlikely that pregnancy would result from the placement of contaminated fingers in the vagina. That is not the same for sexually transmitted diseases however.
