Q: 

Can you get pregnant if you had underwear on and he did not orgasm down there, but you may have had some semen on your hand when you adjusted your underwear afterwords?

Hi,
The chances are very low. But, you need to be careful. Sperm are so tiny that they can only be seen under a microscope. So,how can you tell if one sperm remains on your finger as you adjust your underwear? Can that one sperm get from the inside of your underwear into your vagina? Wait and see if you get your period. But, again, be careful.

Hi Anonymous,
Just so I understand, you want to know if you can become pregnant by having semen on your hand and then touched your underwear? No, sperm cannot penetrate fabric. If you touched your vagina with your fingers covered with semen, then, there would be a chance that you could become pregnant. Sperm needs to come in contact with the vagina for conception to occur. Hope this answers your question.
