My boyfriend and I have been having unprotected sex, I know the chances of getting pregnant are there, but he just let me know yesterday he has a low sperm count, what are the chances of getting pregnant?
Even if your boyfriend is shooting blanks you should use a condom unless you are in a long term monogamous relationship with no other partners for at least 6 months and have both been tested for STDs.
It is difficult to get pregnant when the number of healthy motile sperm is below 1,000,000. I do know a case where a man with a sperm count around 1,000 was told by his doctor that it was virtually impossible for him to impregnate his wife but it still happened.
Play it safe.
It only takes one. Even if your chances are 1 in a 100, it can happen. Are you ready for that? And how do you know he's telling the truth? Some icky guys will say stuff like that so they don't have to use a condom or have you on a pill. They don't care if you get preggers. Maybe he's a nice guy. Anyway, if you take chances, you will probably lose.
I hate to be so cynical, but your boyfriend probably said that so you'd have sex without a condom.
High/low/no sperm count all still requires a condom. You can never be 100% sure you won't get pregnant, and even if you don't, you can certainly still get STDs.
