Dear Alice,
Recently my friends and I were having an argument
about whether or not a woman could get pregnant from a man's
pre-cum... so can she or not???
Thanx 4 the help,
Confused...
Dear Confused...,
Yes, a woman can, though the chances are low. Sperm could be in pre-cum,
but only after a recent ejaculation, after which some sperm may be left
hanging around in the urethra. "Recent" means masturbating earlier and
then having sex with a woman, or during the same sexual episode of the
recent ejaculation. Urinating in between ejaculations flushes the urethra
of stray sperm and makes the way clear for the sperm-less pre-ejaculate
fluid. If sperm remains after a prior ejaculation, then it's possible
that they can enter the vagina and make their way to meet an egg.
