If you are lying against a guy and he leaks in his underwear and pants (but doesn’t ejaculate) and you get wet from excitement in your underwear and you’re also wearing pants is there any chance of pregnancy?

Hello Rach79

Did you have sex ed at school? If not, it's a good idea to study on your own so you know how sex and the human body works. You can read books on this or search our own site. This will eliminate a lot of stress than the unknown can cause.
A woman cannot get pregnant unless she has unprotected sex (naked) with ejaculation. She would also have to be ovulating. Sperm will not travel through a layer of clothing to impregnate.

So a pregnancy cannot occur from what you did.

Best,
Susan

Thanks Susan,
Really helpful info just a follow up if that’s okay. Is it because of having 4 layers that is, x2 underwear and x2 tracksuits that make it impossible? Read so many different things on the internet. Even though he ejaculates in his underwear and pants this is no way can cause pregnancy because the sperm will not survive in the clothes?

Hello again

Correct.
Think of sperm like pudding. If it was placed on a cloth napkin, it wouldn't soak through to the other side.
Additionally, you have to have intercourse and be ovulating to get pregnant.

I was ovulating at the time I think. But am not concerned because of how you have explained they cannot soak through the clothes even if some are damp they cannot make there way through
