Can someone actually get pregnant if there's no penetration involved but just rubbing a naked penis around the vulva? I've heard that precum could be a factor, so how real is the risk here? I'm kinda worried and curious about how this works.

Yes, it is possible to get pregnant from genital rubbing if precum (pre-ejaculatory fluid) comes into contact with the vaginal area. While the chances are lower compared to direct penetration, sperm in the precum can still lead to pregnancy.

Pregnancy Risk
- Pregnancy requires sperm to reach the vagina and fertilize an egg. Without penetration, this risk is significantly lower.
- Pre-ejaculate Fluid: It can contain sperm, but usually in small amounts. Direct contact with the vulva poses a small risk.
-
Precautionary Measures
- Contraception: Consider using condoms or other birth control methods to minimize risk.
- Consultation: If concerned about pregnancy risk, consult a healthcare provider for personalized advice.
-
Summary
- Rubbing a naked penis around the vulva without penetration carries a low but not zero risk of pregnancy, especially if pre-ejaculate is present.

I'm really worried because it feels like there's a water ball in my stomach. I don't know what the exact medical term is for it. Should I be seeing a gynecologist or a gastroenterologist to get this checked out?
The presence of a "water ball" in the stomach could refer to fluid accumulation, possibly indicating a cyst, ascites, or another condition. It's best to consult a **gastroenterologist** first, as they specialize in digestive system issues, including the stomach. If it's related to gynecological causes, the gastroenterologist may refer you to a gynecologist for further evaluation.
