If sperm is on your hands will it die pretty quickly or does it take a long time?

Hi. My girlfriend and i just had sex. Then, i wiped my penis with wet tissue afterwards. I wiped it very well and it has been exposed to the fan. After a minute i guess, we had sex again. Is there a possibility she could get pregnant? We're really worried right now.

My boyfriend and I fooled around about a week ago. I haven't gotten my period yet and I have no signs of it so I'm worried. He did ejaculate and it got all over my hands and stomach. It dried up on my hands and I washed them with soap and hot water. I then touched myself down there after going to the bathroom. But I then waited a couple minutes then wipped it off my stomach with just a wet piece of paper towel. Is there any way that I could be pregnant because I am freaking out?
Is there sperm in pre-cum too or no?

what do you mean by dry semen? when it is not in liquid form already? so when it is dry already one may not be pregnant from rubbing semen/sperm to vagina? (with washed hands)

Hi Anonymous,
There is very little chance that sperm had entered into your vagina from what you explained above. Hopefully this settles your nerves and if you have any concerns in the future...pleass visit our website here as we often have the same sort of questions that will hopefully settle your nerves http://www.empowher.com/community/share/outercourse-dry-humping-dry-sex-....

Hope this helps.

you should be fine if he didn't cum!!! He can touch his erect penis and touch you without getting you pregnant!

Ok I'm sorry for bothering you like this. I just have a fear of becoming pregnant at this age and I'm just thinking that pre cum could have been on his penis than touched me and got me pregnant!
