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..

You can get pregnant and worse yet you can get Aids..not just preventing pregnancy but stopping STD and diseases like Aids/HIV is main reason why women and men should insist on condoms...if you are going to have sex or fool around with naked or barely any clothes.
To the girl who did not get pregnant you still should get tested for STD plus HIV. Just remember this, if you fool around like this or have sex that you than fooling around with everyone else that this person did before you...why risks are so not worth it.
Wait...you cannot get it back and to wait for the right person and do it the right way can make huge difference in how sex with affect you for the rest of your life. You want to have sex for real love..with person who waits like you till it is the right time...even then you both should be tested to make sure you are healthy.

we always use condom... I just got so curious why I bled... He's not my first sex. but our first sex he used condom and I didn't bleed. then the 2nd time we had sex is he used condom again then i bleeded that was 2-4 days after my menstruation. then 4 days after we had sex again but he used a condom. so what does that mean? :/

Hello Anonymous,

You are both too young to be sexually active. You do not appear to have much knowledge about reproduction. Before either of you even give having sex another thought, you need some sex education.

There is always a chance of pregnancy if you have unprotected sex. That means not using a condom or birth control. It doesn't matter if you only insert the tip of your penis or penetrate.

Okay, so me and my girlfriend are thinking to have sex. The question i had in mind is that, if i use a condom and insert my penis completely like completely not half or something inside her Because i saw people writing that he inserted only the TIP of his penis would that make her pregnant?. . If yes, then what if i take out my penis even after wearing a condom before i cum?. Will she still get pregnant?. As far as i know i dont think so she will get pregnant because we're using a protection? Or only if you have unprotected sex, without a condom will make her pregnant.
We both are 16. Please reply as soon as possible its quiet important. As we might do it soon and i don't wanna get her pregnant

Hello Anonymous,

There is little chance that you could be pregnant. To become pregnant, one ovary must release a mature egg (ovulation) and the egg must be fertilized by sperm (fertilization). When you are having your period, ovulation has passed and the lining of the uterus is being shed.

You are probably experiencing premenstrual symptoms.

Hello Anonymous,

You cannot become pregnant if you have sexual intercourse while having your period.

Let me explain.

During ovulation, which generally occurs about 2 weeks before the start of a period, an ovary releases an egg. This is the most fertile time in the menstrual cycle.

If the egg is not fertilized, conception has not occurred. The lining of the uterus is sheds. This is the menstrual flow of your period.

Your abdominal and stomach pains could be anything from anxiety that you might be pregnant or a stomach virus.
