I rencently had unprotected sex during my ovulation period but used the pull out method now I'm paranoid I may be pregnant is it possible even though all semen was let out outside the body. What are the chances from pre ejaculation

Yes, it is possible. There is plenty of sperm in the pre-ejaculate that lubricates the penis to cause pregnancy.

The withdrawal method is not a form of birth control.

Are the chances high or low for pregnancy from pre ejaculation during ovulation?

50/50. Depends on whether you were actually ovulating or expected to ovulate in the next 24 - 36 hours.

ANY time there is penile insertion there is the risk of pregnancy. You can reduce the risk, but not eliminate it. The withdrawal method is one of the least effective methods.

There is no way to estimate the odds as it only takes one sperm to fertilize an egg. If being pregnant scares you, then don't engage in intercourse.

Very possible it's anxiety. Pregnancy symptoms don't happen that fast.

Didn't think so... at least that is a relief to know. My heart rate when I checked was at 172

I started getting symptoms around the time my period was due. When my period was one week late, I tested and got a positive! Yay! But symptoms depend on woman to woman. Some get no symptoms at all and some get a lot of very early symptoms. Best would be for you to relax and stop stressing as that could delay your period if you stress out too much, and the later your period comes, the more you'll be stressing. So try to relax, don't focus on it, and see what happens! Good luck
