I've done a little research on this and i've found that sperm is made in the testes and precum is made in the cowper's gland. if a man doesn't ejaculate before intercourse, then the precum cant contain any sperm because the cowpers gland cant produce sperm. therefore the precum cant cause a pregnancy. i think that what im saying makes sense, but im up for all kinds of answers. tell me what you think

Your logic is good, but I've been told again and again by sex health books and etc. that precum does contain small amounts of sperm, mainly because, when a guy precums, he is obviously aroused... and since he is aroused, although he doesn't ejaculate all of his sperm, some of them leak out with the precum because his testicles are filled (overly so) with them. Precum and *** have to come out the same way, so it would make sense that small amounts of both are contained within the precum. So even though you are right logically, a girl can still get pregnant from precum even if her partner doesn't ejaculate inside of her. Basically, use a condom no matter what. The pull-out method doesn't work entirely, and mother nature will inevitably screw you over.

The Cowper's gland produces pre-ejaculate which runs from the gland through the urethra ( the opening in the shaft). Also through this shaft run the urine and semen ( the fluid in which sperm is found). Sperm cells can live for up to three days, by the way, and if the male has not urinated since the last time he ejaculated ( the acidity in urine damages the sperm) then is is possible for the residual sperm (left in the urethra after the last ejaculation) to be pushed out by the pre-ejaculate fluid and cause pregnancy. Hope this helped :)

The copwers gland does not produce sperm, but unless you have never ever ejaculated there will be sperm in the gland. It is after the vas deferens, which means that sperm have to pass through the cowper's gland to get to the urethra. You will not ejaculate all the sperm that came from the testes, so any remaning sperm will be in the cowpers gland for next time.

I don't think that ejaculation happens all at once, there has to be a little sperm in the precum since so many women get pregnant while using the withdrawl method. I think that you might want to research your idea a little further.

I've been told time and time again that the precum contains more sperm than the actual ***. Don't ask me how or why that's just what I've been told.

Well, they told us in high school health class that precum contains small amounts of sperm.

it does make sense, but "precum" does contain enough sperm to get you pregnant, it only takes one. Men also have sperm in their urine, how about that.

well, i'm not sure how true that is but when me and my fiance were using the withdrawl method, i didn't get pregnant, it wasn't until we stopped using the withdrawl meothod altogether that i did become pregnant. now we are both so excited and can't wait for the baby to get here.
PS sex is sooooooo much better when pregnant lol.
