PRE CUM
Man, I'm honestly so tired of seeing women on here giving out false information about pre cum! You can not get pregnant by pre cum ALONE. The only time you will get pregnant by pre cum is if he had ejaculated prior and did not urinate. It's not even pre cum anymore, it's leftover sperm from the last ejaculation. The pre cum will continue to do its job by releasing its fluid from the Cowper's glands, or bulbourethral gland, to take out any urine(if there is any) from the urethra that can harm the sperm when the man finally ejaculates. If sperm is still in urethra, it will come OUT! Have you guys ever studied the male's anatomy? In the picture attached below, you can see that the Cowper's gland is attached to the urethra. Sperm have to go through the ejaculatory duct before entering the urethra! So that being said, the Cowper's gland is right in the middle of the sperms journey out of the urethra. The Cowper's gland CANNOT be secreting sperm. 
No, I don't want young girls thinking it's okay to have unprotected sex because pregnancy is not the only thing to be worried about. You have STDs, STIs, and other infections you have to worry about instead of pregnancy. Would you want a long term disease? If not, MAKE YOUR BOYFRIEND WEAR A CONDOM DESPITE WHAT HE SAYS. If you guys have both been tested for STDs, came back clean, and you trust your partner to pull out perfectly each time, then go ahead. I am not advocating unprotected sex, I just want to state facts. I do not recommend this method if you do not want to get pregnant and if you're also paranoid because you will overthink so much and stress yourself out, causing a delayed period.
The reason pull out method has failed is because men release a little bit of their ejaculate before they even pull out. Your partner has to have really good self control, and know when he's going to ejaculate and pull out perfectly each time. He also has to urinate before you guys have sex, EACH TIME! If you guys have sex back to back, you now have the possibility of pregnancy in your hands. Even in that circumstance, it's a low chance because it's a lower sperm count than full on ejaculate BUT IT'S DEFINITELY POSSIBLE. Also, it does take only one sperm to fertilize an egg(that's a FACT) but that one sperm need helper sperm to break down the corona radiata of the egg with an enzyme that sperm release called Hyaluronidases. The one sperm will not have enough of that enzyme to be able to break down the corona radiata of the egg by itself.
Yes, I know there's a study out there saying that 41% of men out of 27 have sperm in their pre cum, but their conclusion was that sperm was being LEAKED(not all men do that) and it was not coming from the Cowper's gland. Also, the people who conducted this study say that's it's a VERY low chance to get pregnant by the sperm that was being leaked. I think that there should be another study done with MORE men than just 27, and with men who are very healthy.
