Is Pregnancy Possible Without Sexual Intercourse?

Posted on Sat, 19 Jul 2014

Question: I dry humped with my boyfriend on the 9th of last month. He didn't ejaculate at all. But I'm not sure if there was pre-cum or not. Then I got my period on the 15th (I was expecting it). The period was lighter than usual. As in, the blood flow was less. But it was a longer period as compared to usual. I usually get my period for 3 days. But this time, there was like, blot-type flow on the third, fourth and fifth day. I also got a vaginal infection for which i went to see the doctor and got a prescription for it. I have these white discharge sticking to my vulva. And a few days ago, I saw a yellow stain on my underwear. I do not have any signs of pregnancy as such. And I've not conducted any home pregnancy test yet. Could I be pregnant? Also I'm anemic. Does that have anything to do with it?

Brief Answer:
No pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Dry humping with clothes on does not cause a pregnancy. Direct penetration is needed for pregnancy. The mild discharge that you have could be due to a vaginal infection. There is no need to worry. The slightly longer last period is also a normal variation.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Thank you so much for answering my question and calming down my fears.. Also , the doctor told me to get a usg, blood test and an urine test done. I was worried that the results might show that I'm pregnant, so I procrastinated getting the tests done. I'll definitely get them done now. Why do you think she told me to get the tests done? Could it be something more serious, other than an infection?

Answered by Dr. Dr. Rakhi Tayal (15 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Just an infection.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Nothing is serious is likely from your symptoms. Don't worry and get the tests done as suggested by your doctor. An infection is likely.
Hope my answer is helpful.
