What Are The Pregnancy Chances?

Hi. i would like to ask. Me and my girlfriend have unprotected sex during the 7th and 8th day after her period. I just penetrate not more than 1.5cm till 2cm inside and I absolutely did not ejaculate inside her. What is her chance of getting pregnancy?

Hello, and I hope I can help you today.

There are some sperm in pre-ejaculatory fluid (pre-cum) but it only begins to come out very close to orgasm. It does not matter how deep you penetrated during your episode of intercourse, because sperm can travel up into the vagina as long as it is moist even if ejaculation occurs very close to, but outside the vaginal opening.

However, contrary to popular belief, withdrawal of the penis before ejaculation is relatively effective in preventing pregnancy- about 85 percent of the time. And in your case, if your girlfriend was only on the 7th and 8th day after the start of her period, it is unlikely that she ovulated yet- as the most fertile time for most women is around 2 weeks before their period is due.

So I really do not think you need to worry about pregnancy in this situation, as the combination of using withdrawal and the fact that your girlfriend was not in her fertile time likely prevented pregnancy. It is impossible to give you an accurate percentage, but i would estimate that the chance of conceiving was much less than 1 percent.

I hope I was able to adequately answer your question today and that this information was reassuring.

Best wishes,

Dr. Brown
