Patient's question:
I had my period on the 16th of last month. On the 26th of last month, I started living with my boyfriend. We did not engage in any sexual activity, and both were wearing underwear. There was some contact between us while wearing underwear—he touched my private area with his hand, and it may have touched my hymen. My boyfriend did not ejaculate either. My menstrual cycle is usually around 29 days. However, I haven't had my period yet. On the 24th of this month, I had a transabdominal ultrasound of the uterus (because I am still a virgin, so a vaginal ultrasound was not performed). No abnormalities were found. Could I be pregnant? Does that ultrasound provide any insights? Thank you.Doctor's answer:
Hello, pregnancy requires a sufficient quantity of sperm to enter the woman's body during the ovulation period for fertilization to occur. In your case, there was no actual penetration, so pregnancy cannot occur. You were only (friction) externally and did not engage in actual penetration. The hymen was not broken, so there was not enough sperm entering the woman's body for fertilization. In other words, pregnancy cannot occur. You can rest assured about this.
