Is Pregnancy Possible Through Pre-ejaculatory Fluid?
Question: Evening doc. my wife and i had sex around april 2 and around 9th. i didnt spermulate inside her, tried outside. she went today to a test and we found she is pregnent. could you please tell me the possibilty of this happening.
Brief Answer:
Possible
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.
The chances are there.
What you used is called withdrawal technique.
It's quite infamous to be unsuccessful.
Because some sperm does usually get ejaculated before you withdraw.
It's a common risk.
I have tried to make it as simple as possible. I hope that the information contained in this message will be able to help you find the best solution for your problem. Best of luck. Dr Mittal

Oh,Thank you for the response. does it mean even if i cum completely outside consciously there is chance of sperm going in while intercourse time. Hope i am clearly mentioning it. kindly let me know.
And as a safety measure, how many minimum number of days it will take to become pregnant even in case, sperm slips in. also please let me know what are the maximum number of days whether one can become pregnant after intercourse.

Brief Answer:
Specific information
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
First, I would respond to the second part of the query.
If the sperm is ejaculated on the same day as the egg it takes no time at all if the conditions are right.
As for the first part of the query, If you are absolutely sure that no sperm was ejaculated inside the vaginal cavity then it's unlikely to cause pregnancy.
However, as I said before , in withdrawal technique, it's very likely that one may have ejaculated before withdrawal. It doesn't need the entire semen to be delivered inside vaginal cavity. One sperm and so just one spurt of semen is enough.

ok Dr. thank you.
When we did ultra sound today, doc said fetus is visible but still not at the stage of moving. Is it possible for you to help in telling, how many days it would be since she became pregnant. Even if not exactly untill a closest approximation.
