Pregnancy: General Pregnancy And Pregnancy Prevention Questions/Concerns / Question
Published: June 11, 2000
Dear TeenHealthFX,
My boyfriend and I haven't had sex yet, but we perform oral sex on each other. My question is, if he touches his penis to adjust it and there is pre-ejaculatory fluid on it, then he puts his finger near or in my vagina can I get pregnant?

Dear Pre-ejaculatory Fluids And Pregnancy,
This is an awesome question and one that most teens would never think of, but should.
Yes, there is definitely a chance of you becoming pregnant by your boyfriend's pre-ejaculatory fluid even if his penis is not touching your vagina. The ejaculatory fluid contains sperm, which is enough to cause pregnancy. So make sure to practice safe sex whether it is oral or otherwise.
Before continuing on with your sexual activities you may want to consult Pre-ejaculatory Fluids & STDs. Also, both you and your partner should go to a teen health center or local Planned Parenthood before becoming sexually active to discuss safer sex and birth control methods. They can see you without your parent's permission, confidentially and on a reduced or no cost basis. If you live in Northern New Jersey call the Adolescent/Young Adult Center for Health at (973) 971-5199.
Keep thinking before acting.
