Dear TeenHealthFX,
About 11 days ago me and my bf we're fooling around, he fingered my clit I jacked him off but only clear liquid came out and he didn't "cum" he is only 15 and I'm scared I'm pregnant so my question is can I be pregnant he didn't finger me nothing went in side my vaginal area it was just the clit

Dear My Boyfriend and I Were Fooling Around - Could I Be Pregnant?,

In order for pregnancy to occur, sperm contained in ejaculatory fluids needs to come in contact with the vagina. If your boyfriend’s penis did not enter your vagina, TeenHealthFX cannot imagine how you could be pregnant from the interaction you described. However, if it would put your mind at ease, you can take a pregnancy test if you do not get your period when expected.

TeenHealthFX does recommend that you and your boyfriend educate yourselves about How Pregnancy Happens. It would also be a good idea to check out our previous Resource of the Month: Planned Parenthood Resources on Safer Sex so you can learn about sexual readiness, birth control, STDs, pregnancy tests, emergency contraception, myths and facts about sex and more. The more educated you are and the more precautions you take when it comes to being sexually active, the less likely you will find yourself in a situation where you are dealing with an unwanted pregnancy or the transmission of an STD.

If you are having sex currently, or at whatever time you plan on becoming sexually active in the future, TeenHealthFX would like to encourage you to speak to your doctor about safe sex precautions. Doctors generally recommend that teens and young adults who choose to be sexually active use condoms each and every time they have sex to protect against unwanted pregnancies and the transmission of STDs, as well as a back-up method of birth control such as the pill or birth control shot. Your doctor can make the best recommendations for you and discuss with you how to properly use birth control to maximize its effectiveness.

If you don't have a doctor and live in northern New Jersey, you can call the Adolescent/Young Adult Center for Health at 973-971-5199 for an appointment with an adolescent medicine specialist or contact your local teen health center or Planned Parenthood. A Planned Parenthood health center is a good option if you have concerns about cost or confidentiality issues. You can also contact your insurance company for a list of in-network providers.
