    Can I get pregnant without having sex?
    I am 18. My boyfriend and I fooled around (didn't have actual sex) about two weeks ago, while I was on my period. I tried not letting any of his semen touch any area of my vagina, but I am unsure if I was successful or not. I take birth control everyday, but at a different time of the day everyday (anywhere from 10PM to 3 AM ish).

    The reason I am unsure is because I have some early pregnancy symptoms. I have sore breasts, on and off diarrhea, frequent urination (although that seems to be pretty regular for me), on and off headaches, feelings of nausea without vomiting (although that is new and may be from nerves), and fatigue (which may be from not getting enough sleep).

    You aren't pregnant. It actually takes SEX to get pregnant.

    If you actually do some research, you will learn that it IS possible to get pregnant without having sex if there is contact between the penis and vagina, or if somehow he came very near the vagina. So I am wondering, given that information, how likely (with the rest of my descriptions) it is that I could be pregnant.

    I don't need to do research. I'm a registered nurse who delivers babies for a living. I've been formally educated on the subject.

    So you are saying it is 100% physically impossible for someone to get pregnant from semen entering their vagina in a way that is not sex?

    I'm saying under the conditions you described above that you could not have gotten pregnant.
