Q: 

Pregnancy worries WITHOUT intercourse?

I can't believe I'm asking this but I'm starting to freak out a little bit.
A few days after my period ended, my boyfriend and I were "messing around." He put his bare penis up to my bare vagina and started rubbing before I told him to stop and put on a condom. (I'm not on any other form of birth control right now.) No ejaculation and no penetration, just possible precm on my vagina.
I didn't think anything of it at the time, but now my period is a few days late - I've had some weird light brown spotting with period-esque cramps, but no period. My breasts are tender and look a little bigger to me, and my skin has absolutely exploded with acne (although that is not unusual for me). I'm kind of freaking out.

I am absolutely exhausted, but to be fair, I have been sleeping an average of four hours a night and have a whole lot of stress in my life right now. We haven't even had sex yet because I am undergoing treatment for vaginsmus - penetration and intercourse is too painful for me, something I'm working on with physical therapy.

I took a sensitive early test the day my period should have come, and it was negative, but still no period. A pregnancy would be absolutely devastating, especially without intercourse - I'm not even sure my boyfriend would believe me. :(

I should mention that I recently stopped taking the Pill because it was making me super depressed and physically ill. I was told to expect some cycle weirdness after stopping, but I'd gone through two full cycles and my period seemed perfectly normal.
Am I making myself nuts or is there a real risk here?

Thanks very much for your help.

Hi. The first day of my last period was on April 18th, and that was a 36-day cycle. I usually have irregular cycles ranging from 28 to 36 days.

On May 5th, my boyfriend ejaculated from a blowjob I gave him, and then I continued to give him a blowjob. Then, he washed his penis with tap water. Right after that, he rubbed his penis against my vagina. No penetration. I'm not sure if there was pre-cum. Could there have been pre-cum after ejaculation? Can I get pregnant due to this situation?

Now it's May 16th, I haven't had my period yet but I have breast tenderness and abdominal&vaginal cramping.

Hello Anon

If there was no urination after ejaculation then there may be some very small risk. You didn't engage in safe sexual activities. However, your risk is low and it sounds like your symptoms are PMS meaning your period is on it's way.

Hi.
Please help.
Messed around with my boyfriend. There was no penetration or any ejaculation. Only genital rubbing.
But my period is nearly a week late. I do have an irregular cycle though.
I don't think I'm pregnant but I'm still worried. Could i possibly be?

Hello Anon
From what you have written above - there seems to be no risk. A pregnancy test can confirm this for you.

Hello Anon

Your girlfriend will need to take a pregnancy test to know if she is pregnant.

Hi, I never had sex/ been penetrated before. But 2 weeks ago, my boyfriend rubbed his penis directly to me for a few times. I am pretty sure there was no pre-cum and he never once ejaculated near my vagina. I should be getting my period in 2/3 days. I am deeply worried...

There isn't anything you can do now and your risk is little to none.

Hello, about a month ago me and my boyfriend were “messing” around and I don’t believe he got his cum inside of me or anything like that because he did finger me, I am six days late on my period and I am incredibly worried if he did have some come on his fingers but whiped it off is there any way I could be pregnant
