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.

If you take the birth control as directed, you are protected and have nothing to worry about.

Me and my boyfriend had dryhumping like, I wore my underwear and he was in his shorts and we did it for about 5minutes. Its like he didn't release anything. He did fingering too. But now, my vagina is with that white fluid.. Will it lead to my pregnancy? I still have 12 more days for my normal periods.

Hello Anonymous,

No, this does not pose any risk for pregnancy.

My Bf ejaculated from a handjob. He cleaned himself up and then we dry humped about 30-40 minutes later. He was wearing boxers and I was not clothed. Could the sperm still be active from his ejaculation 30 minutes before? Even if they were wiped away? Could I get pregnant from this?

Hello Anonymous,

No. Sperm can live outside the body for about 20 minutes. Once semen has dried, sperm is dead.

My boyfriend and I have been dryhumping with clothes on repeatedly, like basically every day. Fully clothed, he wears those kind of meshy sport shorts guys usually wear and underwear and I usually wear underwear, and jeans or shorts. Recently I've been sick with the MFH disease and I have been coughing really badly. I'm also stressed because my period is almost 3 days late. Could I be pregnant?

Hello Anonymous,

No. You would not be pregnant if you have only engaged in dry humping.

My period is 4 days late now, could there be any other reason why it's late?

I've had cramps and back ache for the past day, I just noticed some spots of blood on my pad, but it isn't like flowing like its kinda dried up a bit. Is this normal? Does this mean its starting very soon?
