This might sound silly but im genuinely worried and dont have anyone to ask. we were close but both had clothes on, nothing actually happened. can pregnancy happen like this through clothes? overthinking it a lot.

I used to worry about such things too before. So if there were clothes in between, its basically not a risk na? Thanks, this is reassuring.

Through normal clothing its extremely unlikely, the fabric blocks it. Pregnancy really needs sperm to reach inside directly. If you're worried about a specific situation, a simple pregnancy test after a missed period clears the doubt.

Through clothes it's almost impossible. Take a test if your period is late.

Savita Punjabi · Answer

Chances through clothes are practically nil, don't stress over this. If you missed a period, just take a test and stop worrying. Worrying won't change anything, a test will tell you.
