Dear TeenHealthFX,
If a guy jacks off and then fingers a girl right after jacking off could she get pregnant?

Dear Pregnant From Fingers After Masturbating,
Until sperm dries out and dies, it can get a woman pregnant. Even if a male allows a small amount of semen to come near the vaginal opening or if he transfers semen to the vagina by hand, then pregnancy can occur. While sperm does not survive for very long on clothing or hands it can live up to five days inside the female's body. Once inside, sperm is programmed to make its way into the fallopian tube and join with an egg. The only way to avoid pregnancy is by abstinence or using an effective form of birth control.
It is critical to remember that any time bodily fluids are exchanged between partners there is also the risk of contracting a sexually transmitted disease (STD) including the HIV virus. TeenHealthFX encourages you to use to use a latex condom every time have sex.
If you are only worried about pregnancy then you are not practicing safe sex.
