Q: 

Can you get pregnant due to dry humping?

So the past 2 months, i've been getting my period exactly on the 22nd. When I'm stressed, i know it can delay. My boyfriend and I were pretty much dryhumping, but he had boxers and jeans on, and i had my underwear (it was lace, and i'm afraid that maybe stuff can get through easier) and pantie liner on, although at times i felt like my pantie liner wasn't in place right, but just around the clitoris area. It's past the 22nd, but sometimes my period isn't always exact of course, but i've been pretty paranoid after dryhumping. I've been very active with school, and not getting good sleep and afraid that maybe i've been overactive to where my body can't keep up. I recently got a cold and wondering if that can affect my period in some way. Although lately, I haven't been that nervous about it. My discharge has been kind of heavy, whiteish and yellowish. This only started about more than a week ago. My boyfriend and I did dry heaving on the 17th. I've been kind of moody and a little cramping. I'm worried about being pregnant or something. please tell me advice.

Hi, i am really concerned. I am a virgin. My boyfriend and i had never had intercourse but a few days ago we kinda went too far. We were both wearing underwear and we were grinding. I do have problems with irregular menstruation and i've also been a lot in stress. This time my period is again delayed. Is it possible to be pregnant? I also feel a little sick and i can't eat at all this starting at 4 days after dry humping. Please respond asap as i am really freacking out.

hello again, i'm the girl who wrote the last comment. I thank you so much for your fast response but i got even more worried now. I'm sorry to bother you once again, but let me explain it better. I was on the 12th day of my cycle, and my boyfriend was wearing a condom. He says that there was no sperm mark on his underwear therefore i guess it didn't get ripped, but even if it did, is that really possible to get through boxers? (it was the 4th-5th time he ejacuated). The thing is, I have pms but my period normally starts in nearly 10 days (i have irregular periods). Sadly, pms are same as pregnancy symptoms so i guess you can understand why im so stressed. I know i might be overreacting but it was my "first time" and i just can't help it. I'm sorry if i'm tiring you and i really appreciate the fact that you replied. Thanks for your time!

Hello Anonymous,

No need to apologize. We are here to help and I will continue to try to calm your fears.

If your boyfriend was wearing boxers, how was he able to penetrate your vagina. If he was wearing a condom and it did not break, there was no risk for you becoming pregnant.

I do not think you were at any risk. Stressing out, which can cause a delay, and having irregular periods will understandably cause you to worry.

Regards,
Maryann

Hello I'm sorry to bother you but I really need your help. Last week I was dry humping with my boyfriend only in our underwear, but since my panties were made from lace they were not stable. He reached an orgasm twice but he told me that there wasn't much sperm. I am highly worried because I was really wet and I see online that sowem can "climb" on vaginal discharges and reach its destination. Ia that possible? I have to add am so that he told me he was wearing a condom, but he said that it might have got broken because of the friction. I also get my period in two weeks but I'm so so so worried, and I might be paranoid but please give me some advice!

Hello Anonymous,

Since this happened three weeks before your period was due to start, it might have been too early for ovulation. That would be good, because without a released egg, there was nothing to fertilize and lead to pregnancy.

Now, if some semen did come in contact with your outer genitalia, there was a chance that sperm could have traveled into your body.

A drop of ejaculate is about 1/3 ml. So 1/3 of 20 million is about 6.5 million sperm. That's certainly enough to do the job!

If your period is late by more than seven days, you should test for pregnancy. I really think the chance of pregnancy is very low.

Regards,

My bf and I dry humped for like 30 seconds while he was wearing boxers and basketball shorts and I was naked. Then I put on underwear and we humped with underwear on both of us. Can I get pregnant from that?

No risk for becoming pregnant either time.

Hello, so I have been late for nearly a month without realizing it. I am looking back and my boyfriend and I have done quite a bit of dry humping. That's not really the problem, I am just afraid of a few certain scenarios.
The first was maybe two weeks ago, he was wearing boxers and shorts and I was in really thin leggings with panties pushed over.
The second is with him in shorts and underwear and me in loose basketball shorts. The problem here is that his penis came out of his pants and I didn't notice it for a while... My pants were still on but like I don't know if he ejaculated and I know that I had vaginal discharge both times. My period isn't normally irregular, it is occasionally but not too often. Am I at risk?

Hello Anonymous,

The best thing to do is to take a home pregnancy test. For the most accurate result, test in the morning and use the urine when you first wake up and use the bathroom.
