Yes you can although it would be a rarity. Go get a test from the pharmacy just to be sure.

Honestly, if your question is “can I get be pregnant?” and the details involve “I had sex”, the answer is always, always “yes, you could be pregnant.” I’m not trying to be rude or snarky—sperm have a will and a way of getting around any and all obstacles, into your egg, and making a baby.

However, I, personally, think you may be ovulating if it is very light bleeding. Given the timing of your last period. Some people bleed a bit during ovulation. Even some people who have never done it before can start doing it for no reason and then really never do it again. Either way—get a test if you are concerned about it.

@EmpressPixie he didnt penetrate…he just rubbed over my vagina (at the very beginning)(2–3 times) He ejaculated on his body not near me…SO what do you think?

Probably ovulating. Highly unlikely that you are preggers. If you are really worried, wait until the appropriate time and take a test.

The chances that you are preggers from that are so small it’s basically not worth worrying about. But if it does worry you, you can always get a test.

@EmpressPixie so you think i am not pregnant ..i am just anxious ?!

EmpressPixie's avatar

I think you are probably not pregnant.

I think you may be ovulating as it sometimes causes very light bleeding.

If you are anxious, I think you should take a pregnancy test when it becomes the appropriate time.

Use a condom next time!

I also think you almost certainly have nothing to worry about. But you ought to know that there is a small amount of sperm in pre-ejaculate, so there is a very, very, very small chance of getting pregnant from external contact of the sort you describe.

You probably are just ovulating as others have said, although there is a chance you could be pregnant. However, take this as a sign that it is way past time to check into birth control. There is no rule that says only boys can buy condoms, and it is a good idea to also have a back-up plan such as the pill, an IUD, or a diaphragm.
