Question
during love making with my girl friend i rubbed my penis over my her vagina.i didn't insert my penis into her vagina.i rubbed  only on the outer lips.is there any chance of her getting pregnant due to this action? i think i had some precome on my penis.is this action risky..? plz advise.

Answer
Any discharge from a male contains some sperm. Sperm in contact with the woman's vaginal opening can always cause pregnancy. Without penetration, the chance of pregnancy is very small. I have seen only a few such pregnancies in 30 years of counseling.
