    Question

    Hi, so the situation is this: My boyfriend and I have decided not to have intercourse. but yesterday we had outercourse involving fingering & a hand job (excuse my raw terms, but I don't know the scientific terms if there are any for them), and my boyfriend pre-ejaculated. I did touch a little bit of the pre-ejaculate and then touched my labia. I don't think the vagina was touched directly since a) I've never seen/touched my vagina, b) I'm a virgin and no blood came out. but is there a chance of being pregnant if a little bit of pre-ejaculate came in contact with the labia and clitoris? Plus um, to do a pregnancy test, you have to have the signature of mum? Is it worth it to do a pregnancy test? Plus because a pregnancy test involves pregancy hormone, will it be accurate if I do the test this week? Would it be high if I were pregnant? Please answer me. I'm afraid of doing a pregnancy test. I'm very new to these things. it's still my first boyfriend and my first 'sex' if it can be considered sex. thank you.

    Answer

    I would not do the pregnancy test unless you do not start your period on time. The chances of being pregnant are small.

    I would like to offer a little advice though. You and your partner may have decided not to have penis-vagina intercourse, but you are being sexually active and if you keep it up, you are likely to get carried away and have intercourse without using a condom and birth control, creating another crisis. Please think about whether you are ready for sexual activity.
