I'm very young and i have not ever had intercourse but my boyfriend rubbed his penis on my clit up and down but did not put it in my hole. He did not wear any protection and neither did he come and his penis was dry but is there any way that i can get pregnant?

PLEASE HELP ASAP!! :(

Hi,
I can understand that you are really scared right now. It is always possible for a little leak of semen containing sperm to escape without an ejaculation. Your feeling of nausea and cramping could possibly be a result of your anxiety. Try to relax and wait for your period. If you are late one week, take a home pregnancy test.

Hey all, thanks so much for the replies. I did took the test and it was negative and as soon as I felt the stress going away, in a matter of hours, I had my period.
I believe it was the stress and maybe weight loss that were messing with my system indeed.
Christine, I wasn't - I'm not - really using anything, I just started paying attention to what I eat and exercice every day. It's been around 2 months since I started and I dropped 22lbs and it's steady. The doctors didn't like this fast loss very much, but it's now steady and slower.
Once again, thank you so much for the replies and comments.

Hi MFS,
Glad your concern seems to have resolved. If you have continued similar problems in the future, be sure to get in to see your doctor. Take care,
Christine

Hi all. Like a month and a few days ago, me and my boyfriend engaged in some dry humping. I was naked but he was wearing his underwear. I was on top so I just rubbed my clit against him. He did not ejaculate and the head of the penis was not in contact with my vagina (besides being with underwear on). Pretty sure I was not in my fertile days. I am very, very irregular in my periods and even my "normal" cycle takes about 36-37 days, but I'm quite late at the moment. The stupid part is that I'm not sure how long because I started writing down my cycles so I could relax a bit but I lost the thing where I was writing it down. I should add that besides the great amounts of stress, I lost a lot of weight during this time, very quickly. Is it possible that I'm just late? I'm freaking out a lot, I'm so, so scared. Really...

Hi Anonymous,
You can't get pregnant from dry humping. In that regard, relax. What concerns me is the weight loss. Were you trying to lose weight? That definitely can affect your period. And it's not good for you to have secondary amenorrhea caused by weight loss. You may need to see a doctor. Please come back and update us, or get in to see a doctor.
Good luck! :et us know what you find out, and how you're doing.

Hi, Christine. I'm actually the one who wrote the comment about the dry humping and weight loss, I'm sorry I didn't log in for that.

I was trying to lose weight, yes. I lost about 18 pounds in 3 weeks or something. I am pretty irregular with my periods to begin with and I can't even remember when was the last time I didn't freak about having had fully protected sex, because I am very paranoid and I stress out so easily, which is what is happening now. With my age, I should know better.

Are you sure I can't get pregnant in the situation I described? His underwear on, no ejaculation or penetration whatsoever? I really need reassurance. My bf just went to the drug store, described the situation and the pharmacist sold him a pregnancy test. I'm really incredibly stressed out.

Hi MFS,

Losing 18lbs in 3 weeks can definitely affect your period. Based on what you said about your situation, you cannot get pregnant that way. Amenorrhea can be caused by stress and fast weight loss, so this could very well be the problem. If you are already late on your period, take the pregnancy test that your boyfriend bought.

All the best,

Rosa

Wow MFS,
That is some fast weight loss! I think 10lbs. in a month is what's recommended. What were you using? You may want to check in with your doctor just to make sure everything's ok. The thing about weight loss tools (pills, diets, etc.), you want to make sure the weight loss doesn't come as a detriment to your health. Work closely with your doctor.
As mentioned to the other poster, you may want to check out these articles for further explanation. No you can't get pregnant from dry sex. There needs to be real penis to vagina contact with ejaculate present to get pregnant.
For more information, please review these articles: Am I Pregnant after Dry Sex, Making Out with Clothes On?, Outercourse, Dry Humping, Dry Sex, and The Misconceptions of Sex.
