Your Question:
Dear Experts,
I've been having sex every day and I let him finish inside of me. But after, I go to the restroom. Will that prevent you from getting pregnant if you go pee after you have unprotected sex?

The Answer:
Dear Mcho114, No. Urinating after unprotected intercourse does NOT prevent pregnancy. Pregnancy can happen when ejaculate or pre-ejaculate makes contact with the vagina or vulva — even if the vagina is washed out afterwards. Teens who have vaginal intercourse need to make choices about birth control. To find out about your options, check out Birth Control Choices for Teens.
