Why Does Semen Leak Out?
Posted: 01-09-07 12:28pm

My husband and I are trying to get pregnant. We've been having sex for the past 6 months and this is the first time i've ever had unprotected sex and my question is (because of my inexperience with unprotected sex), is it typical to have the semen leak out a few minutes later? This always happens, whether it's immediately or few minutes thereafter, but his semen always comes out of me. It doesn't matter if it's near the time of my menstrual cycle or after, it always leaks out. Is this normal? Will I be able to get pregnant?

Yes it is common only so much can go up inside you and the power of gravity pulls the rest down..Its messy and slightly uncomfortable but it is very normal, no need for concern. And make sure you clean it right after as well cause that can cause a uti, hope everything works out with getting prego.

The semen is the protective coating for the sperm. Once it's inside you the sperm seperate and go where they need to go, the semen has nowhere to go (you're not a bottomless pit) so it must come back out. Some women who are trying to conceive like to lay with their hips elevated for 15 minutes afterward so the semen can't leak out right away.
