Can my girlfriend get pregnant if I ejaculated on her panties and her vagina area while she was wearing them? I'm kind of worried and would love some advice on this.

Yes, there is a possibility of pregnancy in this situation. It is important to consider emergency contraception as soon as possible. I recommend taking an emergency contraceptive pill such as Plan B One-Step within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse to reduce the risk of pregnancy.
