Dry Humping, risk of pregnancy

Hello.
It is safe to say that I have had no sex ed whatsoever, therefore, I did 'dry humping' without actually realizing the risks.
I am a 21 year old guy, and I have 22 year old girlfriend.
On the course of three times, we have had dry humping. Two of those times there was in-cloth ejaculation, and I am really worried as my community is deadly towards such stuff.
The first time, I was in jeans (and underwear) and she was in jeans (and undwear), but I did not ejaculate, but of course there is the risk of precum.
The second time, I was in jeans (and underwear) and she was in a dress (and underwear) and I ejaculated in my pants. However, when I realized I was going to ejaculate, I got off her as soon as I can, so I do not think that our gentials were touching directly through clothes while I was ejaculating, I am almost positive there was a good distance between our two gentials, as I also flipped over to the ground.
The third time however, is the one that most worries me: I was in my underwear, and light shorts (that somewhat sperm can go out through). She was in something similiar to yoga pants (but a tiny bit thicker) and underwear (probaby). I felt like I was going to ejaculate, so while I was on top of her, I held it as much as I can and I got away as fast as I can and ejaculated away from her gentials.

In all three cases, at least 4 layers of clothes were on (though third time they might not bee TOO thick.) If there is any semen that got onto her pants, it would be in very little amount as I tried getting away as fast as I can. In all three cases, I do not think that, during the time of ejaculation, the tip of my gentials were in contact with the tip of hers (almost 100% sure).

I've asked some friends that are biologists and student-doctors, and they said that the chance of pregnancy in these cases, while dry humping + wearing clothes + no direct/naked contact + no penetration + she's a virgin is almost close to NULL = %0.00000001.

Still, I am very, very, very worried and need to hear your professional opinion about this.

Thank you.
The truth is, she got sick for a day (that's when I said she had ear, throat and back-head pain), and she later threw up, but it is probably a virus right? she goes from air-conditioned rooms to very warm ones back and forth so that could be it.
I am anxiously waiting for her period.

I plan on finishing my degree, work for two years or so, and propose. :)

I feel very sorry for you. I usualy get enjoyment from these kind of posts, but in your case  do feel sorry. I can tell you love your woman verry much and are worried fir all the right reasons. But you can relax because there is no way. Iv had unprotected sex for meny years without becoming pregnant so dry humping isent gonna knock her up. I hope you two marry soon and can finaly do the deed the way it should be lol. Good luck to the both of you =]

Summer, repost your question in a different thread. It's too confusing to have multiple conversations going on in one thread

Okay so last Saturday was the last day of my period and me and my boyfriend has sex. Well when we usually have sex we use protection and he pulls out when he comes. This time the condom broke and I think he went in me but he said he didn't. My ovulation is like normal and everything and I'm on birth control what could be my odds of getting pregnant.

There is an old saying, 'When you hear hoof beats look for horses, not zebras.' Even though it is statistically possible to get pregnant no one in the history of human kind has gotten pregnant this way. You're not special. You don't have mutant super sperm. She most likely has an ear infection or strep throat. Take her to a doctor. Have the doctor give you both information on sex.

Ive seen online that these can be pregnancy symptoms, though....

No. She is ill. Sounds like an infection. There is no way she is pregnant. None. Ear and headache are signs of an infection or illness NOT pregnancy. Take her to a doctor and ask them to give both of you a crash course in sex ed. Your fear is irrational.

Imagine if you have never had sex ed, and this happened, wouldn't you be as paranoid as I am?

In the current paranoia I am in, I surely won't do what I did anymore.
However, she's my girl, and as soon as I graduate, I intend to marry her. :)

U should just marry this girl. Stop messing around with her if she's not your wife. If that's your religion then u need to follow the rules.

Your words are comforting. I didn't realize that even if there was accidental ejaculation near the vagina but with clothes on the odds are close to null.
Thank you all so much. I'll let it go, and hope for the best.
Bless you all.

First, go to a doctor. Talk to the doctor about how babies are made and how STDs are spread. You are and adult you are responsible for your sex life. You are in college, placing blame on your religion for your ignorance is an excuse with a quick expiration date.

Second, let this go. You are focusing on a statistical anomaly. Just because something is statically possible doesn't make it probable. I have NEVER heard of anyone getting pregnant this way. Sperm are like fish and need fluid to swim. They cannot crawl through clothing and remain alive, then somehow get inside the vagina and live to make it to the egg. Not possible. Even if you were both naked the chances of getting pregnant are less than winning the lottery.

I am from an Arab community, thats why.
I've read, that even if the penis was pointing to the vagina, with layers of clothing, the chances are still very, very small (much less than 1%).

I am just trying to make sure everything is okay and that I shouldnt worry if some semen got on her pants without us knowing. This (unecessary, it seems) worry is affecting my life very badly.
