Pregnancy happens when a male’s sperm gets into a female egg (fertilisation). The sperm is a single one of many millions that are contained in a man’s semen (the liquid produced when a man orgasms). The egg is released from one of the woman’s ovaries (ovulation) between 12 and 15 days before her next cycle.
Millions of sperm are also found in the liquid produced by the penis as soon as it is erect (hard). This means that a man doesn’t have to ejaculate for pregnancy to occur.
Sperm enter the female body through the vagina, before moving through the cervix and womb to the fallopian tubes where the egg becomes fertilised.

It is possible for a woman to get pregnant without having sexual intercourse (penetration), if there is a chance of any sperm getting into the vagina. For example, a woman can get pregnant if there is sperm on her fingers and she puts them into her vagina.
However, the chances of you ending up pregnant like this are slim because sperm can only survive for a tiny amount of time when outside of the human body (literally a few minutes if left to dry out, up to a few hours if wet).
It would also be possible for pregnancy to happen if the man ejaculates close to the entrance of the vagina, or if his erect penis comes into contact with his partner’s body near the vagina.
Similarly to before, the chances of you ending up pregnant by doing this are way smaller than if you were to have normal, unprotected sex. Regardless, it’s important to be aware that, in some cases, getting pregnant in this way cannot be ruled out.
If you think that sperm could come in contact with the vagina in any way, the best way to avoid pregnancy is to use contraception. Only condoms can provide protection against both pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
If you use a condom it should be put over the penis as soon as it is erect to prevent any sperm fr
