Can I become pregnant without having sex?

Sexual health FAQ (frequently asked questions) - Island Sexu...
You can’t get pregnant through oral sex, or through masturbation. But if you are fooling around with your partner and there is any genital contact, especially where fluid is involved, there is a chance that you can become pregnant. This can even happen if he touches his own semen and then touches your vagina with his hands. If you want to make sure that you don’t become pregnant, make sure you use a condom, or avoid having contact with his genitals and fluids.

Is it possible to get pregnant without having sex?

The UIC Wellness Center: Pregnancy - Frequently Asked Questi...
Oral and anal sex are considered to be fairly safe in terms of getting pregnant, but if any semen gets in or around the vaginal opening then there could be a chance of pregnancy. Of course it still depends on ovulation as well. If you have had sexual intercourse then there could be a chance of pregnancy, but the only way to find out is to take a pregnancy test (see the resource list at the end of the FAQ).

In some cases there is a small chance of pregnancy when there is skin to skin contact between the penis and vagina, even if there is no penetration. Pre-ejaculate is the small amount of fluid that is released by the penis before ejaculation. Pre-ejaculate may contain sperm as well as the bacteria and viruses that cause sexually transmitted infections (STI). Many males are not aware of when the pre-ejaculate is released, so there is no way to know when to pull the penis away.

Can you get pregnant from anal sex?

Join Peer Ed!
Yes, you can get pregnant from unprotected anal sex. What goes in the anus must come out. The distance between your anus and vaginal opening is relatively small. The lubrication that occurs in women when they are aroused works like flaggers at an airport for the sperm to find the egg. There is a chance that the sperm will enter the vagina after exiting the anus and the woman can indeed become pregnant. You should always use protection when engaging in any form of intercourse!

Can I get pregnant if I have sex during my period?

Sexual Frequently Asked Questions
YES, Yes, Yes! A lot of people think that if a woman has sex during her period, she can't get pregnant. Even though this is a common belief, you CAN get pregnant while you are bleeding. Sometimes ovulation can occur before the bleeding from your period has stopped, or it may occur within a few days after your period is over. In both cases, having sex before your period is finished can result in pregnancy. Having unprotected sex at any time, including when you're menstruating, is very risky.

Sexual health FAQ (frequently asked questions) - Island Sexu...
No, you can’t. Swallowing semen is the same as eating something that ends up in your digestive system—it can’t make you pregnant because your mouth doesn’t connect with your reproductive system. Remember though, that you can get a sexually transmitted disease through oral sex if your partner is infected, so you should use a condom or dental dam during oral sex.
