I'm really worried and a bit confused. If there's rubbing over the vagina with underwear on, and the underwear gets wet from precum or semen, could that cause pregnancy? I just need to understand how this works because it's been stressing me out.

While the chances of pregnancy in this scenario are low, it is still possible, especially if precum or semen comes into contact with the vaginal area. Sperm can swim and may lead to pregnancy if it reaches the vaginal canal. It is always advisable to use contraception to reduce the risk of unintended pregnancy.

I've been struggling with painful intercourse with my husband it feels like hitting a wall no matter how many times we try. We've used different lubricants and gels, but nothing helps. Is there any medical procedure or surgery to help enlarge or break the hymen so we can have successful intercourse?

If painful intercourse is caused by a restrictive hymen, a medical procedure called a hymenotomy can be performed to break or enlarge the hymen. This procedure can help to alleviate pain and make intercourse more comfortable. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if this is the root cause of the pain and to discuss whether a hymenotomy is appropriate for you. There may also be other medical or psychological factors contributing to the pain, so a thorough evaluation is crucial.
