Is it true that you can't get pregnant if the girl is on top?

Question

... or like there is a very slight chance?

I have to stop taking my birth control pills for health reasons and my boyfriend said that people don't get pregnant like that.

Answer 1

N ne position it's possible to get pregnant.

Answer 2

Yes, you can get pregnant.  You can even a chance of getting pregnant if he ejaculates on you v****a or surrounding area if you aren't using some sort of protection.  He's lying to you so he doesn't have to use a condom.

Answer 3

If u have2 ask that, u have no buisness having s*x. u can get prego any size, shape, or form.  horny boyfriends make BABIES. then hit the rd. some of them, not all of them. i would be extra careful if i were u. been there done that. when i was 16. no fun.

Answer 4

You both need s*x ed. classes (or at least you do, may he's just lying to get what he wants).

In any case, this is not true, and it's more than a 'slight chance' - you can get pregnant having s*x in any position.  

Answer 5

No, a woman can become pregnant in any position, don't let your boyfriend con you.

Answer 6

Good god, you actually believed him?  Were you raised in a cave? Of course you can get pregnant in any position! at 17yrs old, you should have been smart enough to not believe him. If I were you I'd take a pregnancy test and get a boyfriend that doesn't lie to you, just so he can get some action. He's a jerk!

Answer 7

You can get pregnant in any position as long as the p***s is in the v****a.

Answer 8

'My boyfriend said' is never reliable. No, it is not true. If you are having unprotected vaginal intercourse, it is ALWAYS possible to get pregnant.

Answer 9

The truth is you can get pregnant the only way not to is if you don't do anything at all you know what I mean or ask your doctor if there might be another kind of birth control.

I use the shot its called  DEPO PROVERA

you can ask there are side effects but it may work I only notice weight gain but if you eat healthy you shouldn't have much problems

Answer 10

To answer your question it does not matter what position you are in. If he shoots his sperm in your v****a there is a chance you can get pregnant. The same chance no matter what position you are in.

Damnit I wish I was born during this generation. Girls would of never bought that line years ago. Hes pretty smooth.

Answer 11

he's lying,

it was an olt joke,

gravity,

you get it?

but sperm shoots in,

either way.

that is completely not true,

+& he's lying to you!

you can still get pregnant,

it's like the "pull out" myth,

sperm slowly seems out before you actually shoot,

so pulling out,

doesn't work at all.

if your not ready for kids you shouldn't have s*x,

+& you might want to be a bit more careful,

he is lying to you!

Answer 12

It is absolutely untrue that you can't get pregnant if the girl is on top. Any penetrating vaginal intercourse can get you pregnant. Use a condom!

Answer 13

No it's not true, any unprotected intercourse can cause pregnancy

Don't let him convince you...gravity doesn't help because sperm travels on its own

Answer 14

Paige, this is absolutely BS. You can get pregnant regardless of position.

The only one that cannot get pregnant is the guy.

Dan

Answer 15

Not true.  AT ALL.  Your boyfriend is seriously wrong.

Answer 16

Have you taken s*x ed? not to be mean but that is a very dumb theory the sperm still travels upwards into your vag...yes you will still get pregnant! Hope this helps, no hard feelings =P

Answer 17

He's lying.  As long as the sperm gets in, you can get pregnant.

Answer 18

you are to young to be asking if you are REALLY asking this question, in fact id go with the theory you are to young to be having s*x, if this is anything but a joke question.

i had s*x at your age, and even before your age yes, but i can hounestly say i have never once thought that as a real question in my head.

for the record. IF there is a p***s, inside your v****a you CAN get pregnant. end of story.

okay? even if your on the pill, or he has a condom on, or your on your period, or your on top, or hanging from a tree for all i care. it IS posible to get pregnant.

if you cant be on the pill, for health reasons (neither can i) heres an idea... try a condom, or a dyaphram, or h**l.... the pull out method is an improvment over your logic of you being on top and being safe.

gah. and this here, is why there are so many teen moms.

perhaps not even your fault but your boyfriend for feeding you this "information" i would like to slap him.

Answer 19

No.  You can get pregnant in any position of penetrative s*x.  What a silly question!

Answer 20

...

if your 17 you SHOULD know this.

WHY WOULDN'T IT?!

Sperm SWIM. They don't just stand there and magically do their thing. Their ENTIRE reason for existence is to impregnate, and they'll do EVERYTHING possible to do it.

The entire idea behind s*x is TO get pregnant. Do you really think nature would put such an easy way around it? Just becuase your facing a different direction, you can't?

no.

That's just silly.

I hate to say this, but even 17 you might not be old enough..

If you really MUST continue having s*x, for the love of god find another method of protection and EDUCATE YOURSELVES!!!

He very well could choose to ignore it just becuase he doesn't want to 'pull out'. He wants the pleasure, and disregards consequence.

YOU as a woman, and the potential bearer of children NEED to know EVERYTHING about conception and pregnancy, NOT JUST the act of conceiving.

You don't want to get pregnant over something like this. I'm not saying that you won't ever want to get pregnant, but being educated will give you MUCH more control over how and when it happens.

Bottom line.

LEARN.

If there is a s*x ed class that is neutral (Teaches about protection, and detailed processes and workings of s*x and conception without either discouraging or promoting the act of s*x) go for it. It needs to be straight up facts, and not just scare tactics.

Better yet, talk to your doctor about it!

Or, and I'm assuming not only becuase the doctor told you to stop but that you had pills in the first place, YOUR PARENTS. They obviously KNOW you've been having s*x, DEMAND they tell you more about what your actually doing!

Answer 21

Yup, totally true.

Start testing it out immediately.

Answer 22

You may not be too young but you are definitely not educated enough! Please know all the facts before you start having s*x. Be safe!

Answer 23

first of all, your boyfriend is feeding you a bunch of c**p. pregnancy doesn't depend on the position that you are in, but if an egg gets fertilized or not.  sounds like your boyfriend just likes it better when the female is on top, so he's feeding you lies so that you will abide by his wished. please use a condom with this guy, as you should be doing during sexual encounters anyways.

Answer 24

You can get pregnant

Answer 25

You CAN without a doubt get pregnant if you are on top. Thats just a myth.  If you arent using any kind of birth control you can get pregnant. No exceptions.  And even if he "pulls out", you can get pregnant because some fluids come out DURING the act.  But the likelihood of getting prego while on top is just as much as in any other position.

Answer 26

not true. any postion, if the p***s is in the v****a the girl can get pregnant.  

Answer 27

Girrrrrl you better not be a fool and wrap your mans tool. And don't try the pull out method that's just as worse cuz us guys do a little precum and just that little bit will mess your life up. Just where a condom and don't get that cheap c**p cuz once you two are done and he pulls out and you see the condom has broken well that's the end of your greatest years and the begining of your motherhood started at such a young age. I see the hat your character is wearing think about that, satisfy yourself with your goals and being comfortable in life don't worry about satisfying your boyfriend.

Answer 28

this is not true it is still highly likely you can get pregnant. you might want to inform your boyfriend of this as well.

Answer 29

You can most defenitely get pregnant if you are on top. There is no way to avoid pregnancy by using certain positions.

Answer 30

Your boyfriend has alot of learning to do. Yes,you can most definitely get pregnant on top so be safe! At least use condoms.

Answer 31

No, that's a myth. A woman can get pregnant by having unprotected vaginal intercourse in any position. In fact, pregnancy can happen any time ejaculate (***) or pre-ejaculate (pre-***) is spilled inside the v****a or on or near the v***a. There is no way to know the percentage of risk of pregnancy each time s***n comes in contact with the v***a or v****a — no matter how that happens
