Can a man's prostatic fluid cause pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Last night, when I had sex with my husband, he released prostatic fluid. Doctor, can semen get pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Hello:
It's a pleasure to assist you. Based on the information you've provided, sometimes semen may be present in prostatic fluid. If intercourse occurs during a woman's ovulation period, and prostatitis causes fluid to flow into the vagina, pregnancy is possible, but the chances are very low. I recommend that you carefully monitor your menstrual cycle. If your period is delayed by more than 7 days, you can use a pregnancy test kit with first-morning urine to rule it out. You can also calculate your ovulation period. If intercourse occurs during ovulation and you are concerned about pregnancy, you can take emergency contraception within 72 hours after intercourse to prevent it. Wishing you good health!
