Hi i hope this is anonymous, me and my boyfriend were in his car and i was giving him a hand job and of course he got some pre-ejaculate on my hand, then he started fingering me, it was his first time and didnt know what to so i put my hand near my vagina and helped him. Then i kept giving him a handjob. Later he ejaculated all over my hand and later i went into a bathroom, wiped my vagina with toilet paper and then washed my hands.
Im scared i might get pregnant, i read a lot of things saying its a small chance but im still scared please help me.

Hello and welcome to EmpowHer,
Sperm only lasts a few minutes in the open air. You never actually touched your vagina when it had semen on it, so that reduces your chances of pregnancy next to none. Even if sperm happened to get on your vagina somehow, it would it would be very unlikely to get your pregnant and I'll explain why. Sperm can survive up to 5 days in the right environment in the uterus; that's if it passes through the vagina and the cervix. But most only survive 1 or 2 days. A female egg however only lives 12-24 hours. If it is not fertilized during that time you will not become pregnant.
So, understand that becoming pregnant is not a simple process. Many women will not even get pregnant from having intercourse in which millions of sperm or ejaculated directly into the vagina.
I know its a scary thought to imagine you could become pregnant. But looking at the facts versus your situation, there is not much chance you will become pregnant.
