Is prostate secretion pregnant?

There are many methods of contraception, including extracorporeal ejaculation, but this type of extracorporeal ejaculation is not the safest method of contraception. This involves the issue of prostatic fluid secretion. We know that during sexual intercourse, the prostate will become congested, and prostatic fluid will also be secreted due to sexual stimulation. These prostatic fluids contain a small amount of sperm. If necessary measures are not taken at this time, it is easy to cause pregnancy.

Is prostate secretion pregnant?

First of all, I want to tell you that there is indeed a possibility of sperm in prostate secretions, so it is not absolutely impossible to get pregnant. From the situation described above, it is only a little bit of prostate fluid entering the vagina, and the possibility of pregnancy is extremely low. Because pregnancy requires a large number of sperm to enter the vagina to ensure that one sperm will eventually combine with the egg.

The most common contraceptive method

1. External contraceptives

Advantages: no side effects, easy to use.

Disadvantages: difficult to purchase, needs to be used every time, high failure rate.

Failure rate: The accidental pregnancy rate within one year using this method is 6-20%.

2. Ejaculation outside the body

Advantages: economical, convenient, and free of charge.

Disadvantages: It requires strong self-control, which is not something that ordinary people can do. Moreover, the secretions that flow out when men are excited contain a small amount of sperm, but only one sperm is enough for conception.

Failure rate: The rate of unintended pregnancy within one year using this method is 20%.

3. Safe period

Advantages: economical, safe, and no side effects.

Disadvantages: The dangerous period is from three days before ovulation to two days after ovulation, and the rest of the days are the safe period. However, it is easier to calculate the safe period for women with regular menstrual cycles (see Calculation of ovulation date); this method is not suitable for those with irregular cycles.

4. Condoms

Advantages: economical, simple, no side effects, can prevent both contraception and sexually transmitted diseases.

Disadvantages: Requires male cooperation and must be used every time.

Failure rate: The rate of accidental pregnancy within one year of using this method is 3% (using the method correctly and using it every time) to 20% (using it only during the dangerous period or only when ejaculating).

5. Contraceptive pills (oral or injectable)

Advantages: Easy to use, it can regulate menstruation for women with irregular menstrual cycles, and it can help with symptoms such as abdominal pain and irritability before menstruation. Long-term use of birth control pills can reduce the incidence of ovarian cancer and endometrial cancer.

Disadvantages: It needs to be taken daily, which is a big challenge for people with poor memory. Some people worry about side effects, which is caused by the early high-dose contraceptives. Now the latest low-dose contraceptives have fewer side effects. The new generation of short-acting contraceptives has effectively changed the side effects of the old generation of contraceptives such as weight gain, acne, and increased hair through improved ingredients, and has no effect on the development of the fetus. In other words, as long as you are ready physically and mentally and are ready to have a baby, you can get pregnant immediately after stopping the medication.

Failure rate: The accidental pregnancy rate within one year using this method is 0.1-0.5%.

6. Intrauterine device (IUD)

Advantages: Once placed, it can be used for 5 years. It is economical, simple and safe. Once removed, the ability to conceive can be restored.

Disadvantages: A rather uncomfortable method of contraception. The scale of the surgery for placing the IUD is similar to that of an artificial abortion. It may cause side effects such as increased menstrual bleeding or irregular menstruation, back pain, etc. It is more suitable for women who have given birth.

Failure rate: The accidental pregnancy rate within one year using this method is 0.6-0.8%.
