Brief Answer:
Yes, she can get pregnant with precum

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing..
I understand your concern..

Precum is pre ejaculation which occurs prior to ejaculation. It contains live sperms. So in and around fertile period it is likely to cause pregnancy..

So you need to take an alternative contraceptive. Withdrawal method has a high failure rate..

Hope I have answered your queries. Feel free to ask any doubts.. Good day..
