Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I ejaculated on my pants when my girlfriend rubbed my crotch while sitting on my lap. As soon as I did, she got off. I was wearing boxers and pants as well, and there was a little stain of the semen on my pants. I am worried about the potential risk of pregnancy because she might have come in contact with the semen stain for a few seconds. Also, there was no penetration involved. Can she get pregnant from this? Should I be concerned?

Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to iCliniq.com.

I have read your query and can understand your concern.

Please do not worry and stay assured as there is no chance of pregnancy as the semen cannot travel multiple layers of clothing to enter the vagina.

I hope this helps.

Revert in case of further queries.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

I am worried about contamination as it took me some time before I changed my pants. Will the stained semen stay for a long time, or will it dry in a few minutes?

Answered by Dr. Raveendran S R

Hi,

Welcome back to iCliniq.com.

Semen will liquefy in a few minutes on a proper surface. But it is very difficult in clothing since the cloth will disperse any liquid it touches, preventing it from moving to another side. So, you do not have to worry about contamination.

I hope this helps.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
