Question
Can you come out pregnant even though he pulls out?
Answer
YES! Pulling out, or withdrawal, is not a birth control method, and can spread sexually transmitted infections. Whenever a penis is erect it "leaks" pre-ejaculate fluid, which contains sperm and can get you pregnant. If you are having sex, please use a reliable method of birth control and condoms to prevent disease!
