This is a bit awkward to ask but im genuinely confused. We were careful but not fully, and now im stressing about whether pre cum can actually lead to pregnancy. Read some stuff online but everyone says different things. Can someone clear this up?
The honest answer is it can, the risk is small but real because traces of sperm may be present. The withdrawal method is just not dependable. If avoiding pregnancy is the goal, a proper contraceptive is much safer.
Yes, precum can sometimes contain sperm, so pregnancy is possible even without full ejaculation. It is low chance but not zero. So pulling out is not a reliable method, use proper protection if you want to avoid pregnancy.
