Can fingering lead to pregnancy risk?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I and my fiancee were doing foreplay and I touched my penis and then fingered her (my hands were slightly wet) but I touched only penis skin, not tip and did not ejaculate at that time. Then I ejaculated on her butt and then I wiped off the sperm with a towel. Is there a chance of pregnancy? If some drops of semen had fallen by chance on her outer vagina and due to fingering also? Her periods were finished on 16th and we had this on 18th and today is 19th. Do I need to give her a pill or not? Kindly help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Firstly, your apprehension and concern are completely understandable. But the fact that you both were involved in sex after two days post her menses had stopped simply puts her in her safe period when chances of pregnancy are minimal, as ovulation had not taken place. Secondly, there was no ejaculation involved before you fingered her, and also you touched just the prepuce skin before fingering, which again decreases her chances of pregnancy.

Thirdly, you ejaculated over her butt, and before the sperm could trickle to her vagina, you wiped it off. In this case as well, the chances of pregnancy are minimal and do not qualify for any need for an emergency contraceptive pill within 72 hours of sex. As there was no unprotected intercourse involved, you can be sure that there is no chance of pregnancy in this situation.

I hope this information helps you.

Feel free to ask further queries.

Thank you.
