Hello,

You are getting anxiety and stress about getting pregnant after non penetrative activity. It is rare to get pregnant after dry humping. It may be possible if you are only wearing your under wear and the partner's pre-ejaculate or semen enters vagina by soaking in your thong or undies.

However, since you were wearing pants over your thongs it is ideally not possible to get pregnant. To get pregnant semen has to enter into the vagina and reach the fallopian tube for conception to occur. Since you are getting stressful, you should have taken emergency contraceptive pills within 72 hours of the episode.

Anyways, relax and wait for a couple of days. You should get periods, in case you miss your periods you should get clinically examined by a Gynae, get repeat test for pregnancy done. Get USG uterus and fallopian tubes done to confirm pregnancy / ectopic pregnancy or any other pathology causing you symptoms. You will be managed and treated accordingly. Don't worry.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
