There is only a minimal chance that you could get pregnant this way.

Basically, any time sperm (which is in semen) enters the vagina and an egg has been released from one of the ovaries, there is a chance of conception (becoming pregnant).

Please take a few minutes to check out the recently launched sexual health resource page on this website. You will find slide shows and articles.
