Question about sex?
so my cousin has a problem. she's 16 and just started having sex with her boyfriend. she was telling me about it the other day, and told me that she usually has him go "all the way" BEFORE having sex, and then after he's finished, that's when they will actually have intercourse. i told her though that she should do her routine the other way around because i always thought that if i guy gets ANY sperm inside a girl at ALL, he can get her pregnant. meaning that there might still be some left over, and then during intercourse it could travel and get her pregnant. Then i consulted my friend about it, and she said that sperm dies as soon as it hits the air. who is right ? please give me and my cousin some advice..

Your cousin could very well get pregnant having sex this way. They need to use protection at all times and especially if she doesn't want to get any diseases or get pregnant. Next time you talk to your cousin ask her what she and her boyfriend plan to do when becomes pregnant accidently. If she says she doesn't know tell her she better not have sex until the two of them decide what they will do if she does get pregnant.

sperm can live outside the human body for a while. How do you think that sperm banks function?
Either way they do that is dangerous. If he ejaculates, he may still have semen inside and release it unknowingly when he penetrates her.
On the other hand, if he "pulls out" right before ejaculation, he could have already pre ejaculated (which most men do) which means he released a small amount of sperm without knowing it.
The only way to safeguard against pregnancy with sex is a condom or birth control , or both. But today, STD´s are more of a worry so I suggest that they both go get tested (especially him if he has had other partners) and then choose a good birth control plan
pulling out or what they are doing now is NOT safe and she will end up pregnant.
good luck

You are actually right. But anyway, regardless what their routine is, advise her to USE CONDOMS every time she has intercourse. In the first place, she's 16 years old. In my personal opinion, she should not even be having sex yet b/c she's too young. You should look out for her more, advise her that it's better to wait until she's married to have sex, now that's it's too late, she's already doing it. Remind her there are STD's, AIDS & unwanted pregnancy. She could end up with either one if she's not being careful.

sperm doesnt die as soon as it hits the air - even iff the sperm didnt get inside your cousin there still is a possibility that she is pregnant, buy a pregnancy test and check.
i have to say the chances that she is preggers is very small but there IS still a CHANCE!
what you dont want if for her to not think shes preggers then 13 weeks later when its to late for an abortion figger it out.
she could still be getting periods while pregnant - some women do!!

Even before a guy has a full ejaculation he will have pre ejaculation. Sperm will not die once they hit the air. Your friend really should read up more on sex. If she doesnt know the answer to this she ISNT READY to be having it. Hope she is using protection she is going to end up pregnant

sperm does not die as soon as the air hits it, sperm can actually last a few days outside of the body. she can get pregnant by him but the chance is small, but of course there is a chance.

Regardless of whether the male has ejaculated, there is still semen in the urethra and the female can become pregnant. Also, they should be using condoms so they won't get STD's.

You can get pregnant any time a penis is in your vagina, no matter what you've been doing before or after. Put a rubber on it
