It’s important to use protection during sex to safeguard against unwanted pregnancies as well as the risk of sexually transmitted infections. Nevertheless, one woman who claims to be a virgin has been completely blindsided after apparently falling pregnant through ‘outercourse’, a form of sexual activity that typically excludes actual penetration.

In a cry for help, she stated on Reddit: “I am a virgin, so is my boyfriend. We’re both young, and neither of us is ready for sex. Personally, it’s never been high on my radar, and from what he’s told me, he’s the same way. That being said, we’ve been together for a couple of years now, so things have still happened. Think third base, I guess.”

“Anyways, a couple of days ago, I went to the doctor because I’ve been feeling really sick lately. I did a urine test and a finger prick, and my doctor told me I was pregnant.” Her initial reaction was laughter, assuming her physician was making a jest about a pregnant virgin, till the weight of the situation dawned on her.

“I thought she was joking, but no, I’m really pregnant,” she continued. “I kind of fell silent. She started discussing topics like ultrasounds, prenatal vitamins, etc., but I cut her off and insisted that wasn’t possible because I’ve never actually had sex, and so couldn’t possibly be expecting, reports the Mirror US.

She explained to me that very, very few women can get pregnant by ‘outercourse,’ but it’s still possible due to vaginal anatomy or something. I was, and still am, in complete and utter shock, so I kind of just left without any further explanation.” Terrified, the woman drove straight to her boyfriend’s house to share the news. She said: “I hadn’t even texted or called in advance because I was crying, completely distraught.

“I don’t know why, but it didn’t even cross my mind that he would think I cheated. I would never do something like that. I explained everything to him about how we’d never technically had sex, but we got really close, and stuff can happen. He seemed pretty lost until I eventually told him I was pregnant… which is when he (rightfully) got annoyed at me because how the f**** does that even happen without us having had sex?

“I tried so hard to explain myself and assure him that I’d never do that, ever. “I told him I’d take a DNA test or something to prove that, but he didn’t believe a word and made me go home. The last thing he told me was, ‘I really trusted you.’

“He looked like he was about to cry.” As a result, he blocked her number and on social media, leaving her unable to contact him when the DNA results were ready. She added: “I’ll respect his decision if he wants to break up, but I need him to know I was never with anyone else.

“It’s been killing me, knowing how hurt he must feel. He hasn’t told anyone that I’m pregnant because I haven’t even told my own parents yet, but he has told people that I ‘cheated’ on him, and now I’m losing friends and everything’s gone to s***.

This was already the worst, lowest point of my life, and it seems to be getting worse. “Many advised her to confide in her parents for support, while others criticised the American approach to sex education. One user pointed out: “Just a reminder that only 22 states in the US are legally required to teach medically accurate sex ed if it’s taught. That means the remaining states can literally say/do whatever they want regarding sex ed which is nonsense.

“Another user chimed in: “I guess I’ll be taking a pregnancy test in a few weeks. I was under the impression this kind of pregnancy was much rarer than that.” A third user shared: “I have a cousin who got pregnant like that. We call her son Jesus (not his name). “.
