This might sound silly but im genuinely anxious about it. There was some contact with hands involved and now im worried sick the whole day. I dont want to get pregnant right now so pls someone tell me how this actually works.
The chances from hands are extremely low, dont panic over this. Fresh direct contact is what actually matters. If your period is late, just take a test and stop stressing.
Sperm on hands very rarely causes pregnancy, especially once it has dried out or been on skin a while. The real risk is direct contact at the wrong time. If you are worried about timing, a doctor can explain it clearly without judgment.
