Can Intercourse By Withdrawal Method Cause Pregnancy?

Hi I recently had intercourse on Tuesday and have peed many times since then, and I just had intercourse now but the condom broke. We knew it broke so I just used the withdrawal method and did not cum inside her. could there be residual sperm from Tuesday that could get my girlfriend pregnant from today?

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum.
I have gone through your Query & I really appreciate your concern about the problem you are facing.

Brief Answer :
Yes there are high chances that she can get pregnant by Withdrawal Method

Detailed Answer :
As a physician I would like to tell you that the Withdrawal method is quite dangerous method as precum which comes out of the penis even before ejaculation also contains the sperms and if she is ovulating at the same time there are pretty high chances that she will get pregnant even after ejaculating outside of her body.

So, I would suggest that you should have extra spare condom, use quality condoms, have some lubrication handy if she is experiencing dryness and use a extra way of protection along with condoms like Oral contraceptive pills. Meanwhile keep an eye on her missed periods and do a home UPT if the subsequent period is missed.

Thanks for Trusting & Posting your Query on this forum.
Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask any further question.
Have a nice Day.

Regards,
Dr.Abhijeet
