Is Pregnancy Possible Through Precum?

The other day i took my birth control late, i usually take it at 9pm and forgot it that night, i got up at 6 in the morning and remembered that i hadn't taken it. Then a week later me and my boyfriend had sex with out a condom and there was pre-cum but no actual cum, is there a risk i can be pregnant?

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You have taken birth control pill late, only once in a month. In your case it will not affect the efficacy of the pill to prevent the pregnancy. You are completely safe if you had taken remaining pill in pack regularly on specific time everyday. It has just 0.5 % failure rate. So just be relaxed. There is no chance of pregnancy.

Make a habit to take birth control pill regularly on specific time by putting reminder in mobile. Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water, and do regular exercise.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sagar
