Hey so basically I (15F) gave my boyfriend a handjob please don’t lecture me about how were young I just need some advice 😭😭 and I changed my tampon later on about 20-30 minutes after (wiped all visible semen off and I know there might still be some left idk I’m scared) so could I get pr3gn@nt from that like I had to kind of shove it up there a little but I only touched the bottom of it with the tip of my middle finger nail and I took it out like 40 minutes later after I realised so is it possible I could get pr3gn@nt?? Sorry if this is dumb I’m lowkey scared bc my family is kinda conservative. Also the semen was only really on my thumb and I got off idk I’m rlly scared I think I’m jsut psyching myself out.

You’re fine , don’t stress it .
You’ll be fine. But if you’re this terrified of getting pregnant (especially when you don’t even feel comfortable typing the word) you either need to wait until you’re more mature to do sexual things or be using some sort of birth control.
Lol, I remember panicking like this when I was young and I was younger than you! I’m 34 now, SMH.. You’re fine, don’t worry! Semen dies quickly after the air hits it.
Sperm tends to die very quickly once it touches cold, dry air so you are most likely going to be okay, if you are worried still just get plan b
I’m pretty sure you will be fine. Don’t stress it.
You’re probably fine! Next time if you get semen on your hands wash them well with soap.
thanks guys I’m so sorry I was actually freaking tf out bc I’ve never done anything even remotely related to this before 😭💀
Always wash your hands thoroughly after doing that. But, it sounds like you’re not really ready to be sexually active yet.
It’s time to educate yourself about sex, birth control, STD’s and how to prevent pregnancy. Treat it like it is the most important research project of your life, because it is.
I’d say you’re safe. As long as the semen was dry its likely not active any longer.
You’re not too young to be sexually active, but if you’re this afraid of pregnancy you might want to take a step back and wait before you try again. Remember to wash your hands next time after any genital contact. Also, planned parenthood’s website has a section with a lot of useful information about pregnancy and contraception: https://www.plannedparenthood.org/learn
I’m going to say this as gently as possible.
Is this a normal question/freak out almost every woman goes through? Yes.
Is this also very indicative of you not being mentally mature and educated enough to engage in these activities? Also, yes.
No, you’ll be fine.
