"I have had a boyfriend for over two years. He wants to have sex without a condom and says he will pull out before he ejaculates. The other day my boyfriend and I were fooling around a lot but we did not go all the way. He ejaculated near my vagina but that was it. Is it possible to get pregnant without having sex?"
Well the first thing any doctor will say is ANYTHING is possible. Basically if any semen was near your vagina, it is possible for you to get pregnant. It only takes a very small amount of semen to enter your vagina, and make it to your uterus, for you to get pregnant.
If you are having sex or even almost having sex, you can get pregnant. Any time there is ejaculation and semen around; it is possible that you could get pregnant. Using protection even during foreplay can help reduce your risk of becoming pregnant.
Many women believe that if they are not having intercourse with vaginal penetration, then they do not need to take precautions. This is just not true.
You are susceptible to pregnancy as well as sexually transmitted diseases if you are being this intimate with your partner.
There are many women who say they did not have full intercourse and now they are pregnant; as well as women who contract sexually transmitted diseases such as gonorrhea, Chlamydia, vaginal warts, HIV and AIDS. If you are going to be sexually intimate with your partner in any way, you are exposing yourself to these possibilities.
For years, it has been argued about whether the penis actually has to be in the vagina during ejaculation in order for the woman to get pregnant. It is not the case that the penis has actually been in the vagina. This goes for the often-tried birth control method of "pulling out" as well. Men release a pre- ejaculation fluid that contains sperm. This pre-ejaculation does not offer the man the same sensations as regular ejaculation, so the man does not pull his penis out during the pre-ejaculation. This is how many women get pregnant even though their partner's penis was not in their vagina during the ejaculation.
If you think you may be pregnant you should take a home pregnancy test as soon as you have missed your period. Or if you want to know the results earlier, you can visit your doctor or a local family planning clinic.
If you find out later that you are pregnant with an unplanned pregnancy, it can be very scary. Today there are many options available if you have an unplanned pregnancy.You can visit Lifetime Adoption for more information on adoption, and to chat live. In today's adoption world, you can choose how involved you want to be with the adoptive family. Open adoption offers women the option of finding a forever family for their baby, while maintaining contact through letters and pictures.

First of all Im horrified of the last paragraph oh if its unplanned you can just give it away? But thats ok because you can see pics of your child and if your just lucky you can get a letter ooooooooohhhh a letter that will make it so much better. Im sorry just giving your baby away nothing makes that better even a picture. Babies are a blessing planned or not. And you failed to mention ABORTION. Thats another way but I dont think thats your mentality. This was biased and it just didnt sit well with me. Yes its scary just its great at the same time, my pregnancy wasnt planned but I love my son and wouldnt have it any other way. Respond to this comment

Your freaking out over them talking about giving a child to a home that could give it more than maybe you could at the moment, but your OK with abortion?? Wow...
Great, another religious who claims that a foetus has a personality and can experience emotional feelings just because a book says so...
I have a question fro you, sir: do you think sperm are persons too? If not, where do you draw the line between what is a person and what is not yet a person? What evidence do you have that this line should be drawn there and not later/earlier in the process of conception?
And please avoid the typical "the bible says so", because a book which's origins are unknown is no proof. God has given you a great mind that has the power of being rational, logical and the ability to use reason. Please respect his work and his gift by making use of it.

it all just depends on what your definition of life is...i believe that life begins at conception. If it has a heartbeat then it is LIVING

my boyfriend and i exchanged "hand jobs" if you will, but is there any chance that his semen could have been implanted in my vagina (via his hand), thus making me pregnant? is that even possible?

Hi. I am wondering the exact same thing. I was ovulating when my boyfriend and I were fooling around and his hands very definitely came in contact with my vagina. My period is due, but I have not yet gotten it. I am freaking out because I really can't afford to have this baby; emotionally and timing-wise. I need an answer now. Who can I ask?
hi my girl friend has not had her period in a month i believe but we did not have sex its mostly like.....dry hump etc. is there any way she can be pregnant like that??

I was in a situation like this when I was 14, it was scary. But I remember wondering, if he came near my vagina, and it got me pregnant, would I have to have sex to break the hymen before I give birth? I kept getting these horrifying thoughts running through my mind of giving birth to my virgin vagina. And now I'm wondering if anyone has ever done this, and what they had to do. Can a virgin give birth to a baby with the hymen still in place? Do you think the doctor would have to break it for them? Something to ponder.

Me and my Boyfriend were giving each other handjobs and he ejaculated neer my vagina, i think i was ovulation on that day or days really close to that, what are the possibilities of me being pregnant? please help im freaking out!
There's a very very very slim chance to get pregnant without sex. The WHOLE point of sex is to try to have a baby anyways, that's the way we were all taught, that's the way it's always been. The whole fact that the penis is to be inserted into the vagina gives the semen a great advantage!!! And IF the tiniest bit of semen DID leak into your vagina, the chances are still very slim because sperm do not have brains, yes it's true that their "job" is to find the egg in the vagina. But how hard do you think that is when they're not even in the vagina yet? The tiniest bit of semen will probably get killed off by the acidity of the vagina as well. The vagina's pH balance and the semen's are opposite, and because the vagina is made to fight off things that the vagina isn't used to, it would kill the majority of the sperm. That's probably why most people have one or two babies at a time rather than 999,9999 or something. Hahaha. Don't worry yourself. Yes be more careful, but seriously as long as nobody inserted the semen into you or you didn't have sex, then I wouldn't worry too much.
Thank you sooo much! That response was exactly what i was looking for. :D Respond to this comment

First, if you don't know if you can get pregnant because of some situation, then stay out of that situation...simple as that.
Next, take sex ed...every one of these questions were answered in sex ed class. Ask you sex ed instructor (even if not in sex ed)
Can you get pregnant without having sex? YES YES YES. if ejaculate containing semen has any opportunity to enter into the female via the vaginal canal then you can get pregnant. As far as it being unlikely? Explain the hundreds of thousands of occurrences every year. It can and likely will. However every women's body is different, and every mans ejaculate is different.
Again, if you are too young to understand this then you are too young to have children and for that matter to have sex. If you must, then ALWAYS wear a condom. If you have both been tested for STDs and are exclusive then there are alternatives to condoms (methods that only reduce the risk of pregnancy but provide 0% protection from STDs) such as depo provera, the pill, spermicides (many types and forms and methods exist), IUD etc. however, unless you are married then the you should still wear condoms. GUYS ALWAYS LIE AND CHEAT (I should know, I am one.)
Most importantly, talk to your parents. Talk to you doctor. Talk to your counselors. Get off the internet.
