Hi, I'm 23 years old lady and I'm still a virgin. I have a bf and we've been together for more than 4 years. We never had 'real' penetration or sexual intercourse (saving it for the marriage). But today we made out and he only put his tip into me (only like half an inch to an inch) but did not cum in me. I am just a little concerned and went online to search for answers, and some people even mentioned that with what i've done, i'm actually not a virgin anymore! but no pain no blood flow happened.

Anyway, my question is, will i get pregnant this way? isit really true that if sperm was only near the vagina, i will get pregnant?

only supportive and real answers please.. i know i shud've used contraception, but it was our first time, and we didn't really planned for it to happen.

thanks..

Hi Anonymous,
Having a period is indication that you are not pregnant.
Thanks!

Hi I am 17 years old, and my boyfriend and i were fooling around the other day. We decided to just try sex for 2 seconds, so he cleaned his penis off ( he had not previously came) and put it in and took it out, thats it 2 seconds. The next day my period came. Although it was heavy -ish on the first day and i had cramps like usual it seems to have only lasted 3 days. Every day after that it got lighter and lighter. My period is usually 5 days long. We took the morning after pill just as a precaution although he did not cum or pre cum or anything when it was 2 seconds long. I am just wondering why it is so short and so light. I have been stressed wondering if my period has come, and i had recently started to ski again.

yes you can. It takes only one sperm to get pregnant, whether he enters you all the way or not. If he ejeculates anywhere near your vagina, sperm can seep in and get you pregnant. Pre ejectulation also contains sperm too. So if he pulls out, it's possible you can get pregnant.

Hi, anyone please help here. I have genuine doubt and need information. Just assume the case below:
The girl is virgin and the hymen is intact (not torn off). Now, the boy inserts the tip of his penis and ejaculate. By inserting the tip of the penis or inserting it for 1 - 2 inches hymen will not be broken. In this case, whether the girl can become pregnant? Whether the hymen can obstruct the flow of sperm meeting with the eggs? Please assist. Thank you very much.

The intact hymen is not covering the entire vaginal opening, so anytime a penis is inserted into a vagina...whether it is 1, 2, 6 inches...there is a chance of pregnancy. Penetration of the vagina, with ejaculation, can lead to a pregnancy...that is how pregnancy happens, right?!

I am not sure how you would think the hymen can obstruct the flow of sperm, if the penis was able to penetrate into the vagina? Even enough for the tip of the penis to be at the vaginal opening is enough space for ejaculatory fluid to get inside the vagina...that is all that is needed for a pregnancy. In other words, if any semen is on/near/inside the vagina, sperm can make its was up into the fallopian tubes (where an egg is fertilized).

Does this answer your question?

Hi Thank you very much for answering. What I understood is - even if the hymen is present (not broken I mean) in a girl - she can still be pregnant. Also, an intact hymen will not block the flow of sperm on its way to meet eggs in the fallopian tubes. If this is correct, you have cleared all my doubts. Thank you very much again for assisting...
