Q: 

Does washing with soap and water kill sperm on hands?

My boyfriend and I engaged in manual sex. If before fingering me he had semen on his hands, I wanted to know if him washing his hands with soap and water is enough to get rid of the sperm so it can't get my pregnant. I'm not on birth control and we didn't use protection. As a precaution before manual sex aka fingering, are soap and water enough to make sure that my boyfriend has no sperm on his hands? I also gave him a handjob and he ejaculated with wet fresh semen on my hands but I went to the bathroom and washed it off with luke warm water and antibacterial soap and then dried after. After drying I urinated and washed my vagina with antibacterial soap touching it with the same hand, in order to prevent a UTI. I'm sorry I'm just really worried that I may not be pregnant so I'm freaking myself out. This event happened March 15th (11 days after my period had started) so its been over 2 weeks since then, if I take a pregnancy test will it be accurate? I don't expect my period till April 3rd

today I had given a hand job to my boyfriend after he fingered me, andI washed my hands with water and then directly with soap and water quickly and wiped my hands with tissue. I don't remember if I've touched myself after that(99% sure not) but it just kind of worries me about being pregnant. we agreed to not do this again as it keeps me worried, even though it was fun. but it's just the unwanted tension I'd like to stay away from.I just need someone to ensure me about not being pregnant this way, even though I know I can't.

Me and my girlfriend are both virgins, i ejaculated on myself and then rinsed it off with cold water quickly and rubbed my self of with a towel quickly. I then went back to her and we started rubbing our private parts on each other naked, is there any chance of pregnancy in a situation like this?

Hi Anonymous,

It is questionable if there is sperm in pre-ejaculate. There could be some left if you recently ejaculated. The risk for pregnancy in this case is very low to none. If your girlfriend is late in starting her next period by at least seven days, she should take a pregnancy test.

Regards,
Maryann

Thanks Maryann. I will take note. Also, i didn't add in this detail. Im not sure whether its my cum on her vagina or its her discharge, i was fingering her and a while later i noticed a white CLEAR thick-like discharge on the side of her vagina. I assume its part of ovulation? I am really not sure and terified.

Me and my boyfriend are still virgins. Last week me and my boyfriend were messing around, he was on his back and the lips of my vagina were on the length of his penis and never touched the head of it. He did ejaculate and the semen got on his stomach. I am sure that i did not touch it considering that my vag never touched the head of his penis and the semen went straight to his stomach. We sit next to each other for a couple of minutes then he wipes all of the semen off of his abs with toilet paper and then he washed his hands with soap and water more than twice even though the semen never directly touched his hands. We put our clothes back on, hang out for at least 45 minutes, maybe more and then he fingered me multiple times. So many people have told me i have no chance of getting pregnant but i'm still wanting another opinion. Can i get pregnant?
