Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, my partner and I had sex last night and we weren t using a condom. Some of his ejaculation landed on my genitals and now I m afraid I might be pregnant. I washed off with extremely cold water but I don t know if that was enough to kill off the sperm. Am I at risk of getting pregnant? If so, how great is that risk?
Hi, as some ejaculation landed over your genitals, there are all risk of having pregnancy as even few sperms entered into vagina might cause pregnancy. Inspite of cleaning with cold water risk is there. if you had sex during safe period chance was less. Go for urine pregnancy test after 7-8 days passed of her expected date of period to rule out pregnancy. Ok and take care.
