Can You Get Pregnant from Mutual Stimulation? the Risks

Can I get pregnant?

During the fertile period, I did not have sexual intercourse with a girl, but we helped each other with mutual masturbation.
While she was performing oral sex on me, I touched my penis and then used my hand to touch her genital area (I am sure there was no semen, but I am unsure if there was pre-ejaculatory fluid.
I would like to ask if it is possible that she could have licked that up, assuming it was present).
Is it possible for her to become pregnant in this scenario?

Hello, based on your description, the chances of pregnancy are low but not impossible.
As long as there are active sperm in the vagina during the ovulation period, there is still a possibility of pregnancy regardless of the method.
It is recommended that you take appropriate contraceptive measures, and if necessary, consult a physician for evaluation.
Thank you! Wishing you safety and health.

When it comes to the question of whether pregnancy can occur from mutual stimulation, particularly in the context of manual and oral stimulation without penetrative intercourse, it is important to understand the mechanics of conception and the risks involved.

Pregnancy typically occurs when sperm from a male fertilizes an egg from a female. This usually happens through vaginal intercourse, where sperm is deposited in the vagina and can travel through the cervix into the uterus to meet an egg. However, the scenario you described involves mutual stimulation, which does not involve direct ejaculation into the vagina.
In your case, you mentioned that there was no ejaculation, and you are uncertain about the presence of pre-ejaculatory fluid (pre-cum). Pre-ejaculatory fluid can contain sperm, although the concentration is generally lower than that found in ejaculate. The risk of pregnancy from pre-ejaculatory fluid is relatively low, but it is not zero. If any sperm were present in the pre-ejaculatory fluid and it came into contact with the vaginal area, there is a potential, albeit small, risk of pregnancy.

Regarding your concern about whether the female partner could have "licked away" any sperm or pre-ejaculatory fluid, it is theoretically possible that oral stimulation could remove some fluid. However, it is important to note that if any sperm were to remain on the genital area, there is still a risk of pregnancy if it were to enter the vagina.

In summary, while the likelihood of becoming pregnant from mutual stimulation without ejaculation is low, it is not impossible. Factors such as the presence of pre-ejaculatory fluid and the proximity of the genital areas play a role in determining the risk. If you are concerned about the possibility of pregnancy, it is advisable to consider using contraception or consult with a healthcare provider for further guidance.

Additionally, if you are actively trying to avoid pregnancy, it is essential to understand that any sexual activity involving genital contact carries some risk. If you have further questions or concerns about sexual health, contraception, or pregnancy, it is always best to speak with a healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice based on your specific situation.
