What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy From Pre-cum?

Posted on Wed, 23 Sep 2015

Question: Hello Doctor,
Me and my girlfriend made out last month. We never had an intercourse. However, her periods havent started yet. Her LMP was 29/7/15. We have taken a home test which came out negative. And to be sure we also got a Beta HCG test done which was <1.2 both done on 31/8/15. I am just concerned about the precum that might have got in contact. Please suggest me if it is anything to worry about. Thank You

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to HCM,

I can understand your concerns,

You need not to worry as chances of pregnancy is almost nil.

First you did not ejaculated inside her vagina.her home pregnancy test is negative and beta - hcg is in non pregnant level.

Second with pre- cum,chances of pregnancy is not reported.

I advise that you should wait for one week to get period.

If she does not get it,consult your Gynecologist and go for testing like thyroid profile, serum prolactin and ultrasound to know the cause of delayed period.

Hope it helps. Feel free to ask further.

Thanks.

Thank You so much for your reply.

So since the chances are nil. I would also want to know if the blood test that we took was right and is it supposed to come out accurate at that point of time or was it too early?
sorry i am just too worried

we were drunk and never realised when it happened. I dont want her to have any trouble.

I would also like to bring to your notice that her daily routine has also not been regular. Might that be the reason for her delay?
And do you recommend her to visit a gynac with me or it would be okay if she goes with her mom?

negligible chances of pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hi again.

I have the reports. There is no need to worry.
The chances of pregnancy are minimal.

The reasons for delay can be multiple, including stress and hormonal imbalance.

She can visit her Gynecologist with her mother.
A detailed evaluation of the causes of delayed period is needed.

Hope this lessens your anxiety.

Take care.

Regards.
