What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy With Non-penetrative Intercourse?

Posted on Tue, 10 Mar 2015

Question: Hi, Can I get pregnant from sperms that were wiped off from the hand using a towel? So basically by boy friend ejaculated in my left hand. I then wiped it off with a towel. After 15-20 mins, I need to pee and used the rest room. I had forgotten to wash my left hand, but it was dry. I then washed my vagina properly with the same left hand which means i touched a little inside the vagina. Can I get pregnant? My last periods started on XXXXXXX 19th. This happened on 30th XXXXXXX This month my periods has delayed by 6 days already. I took the eary morning pregnancy test on 20th Feb and it was negative. Im really freaking out and stressed. Please advice

Brief Answer:
You are not pregnant.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
If your hand was dry then sperm cannot survive on a dry surface. Washing with the hand cannot cause the sperm to travel inside and cause a pregnancy. You are not pregnant.
The delay in periods can be related to stress and anxiety. Be relaxed. Your periods will come on their own in next few days.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
