Can you get pregnant from kissing?
Disease description:
My mother has always forbidden me from having a romantic relationship too early or having excessive contact with boys, saying that kissing can lead to pregnancy. I would like to ask if this is true?

Dr. Zhao Xiaodong
Kissing does not lead to pregnancy.
1. Pregnancy requires the combination of male sperm and female egg to form a fertilized egg, which then implants and develops in the uterus. Kissing involves only oral contact between two individuals and does not involve the exchange of reproductive cells, so it cannot result in pregnancy.
2. Sperm have a very short survival time in external environments and require specific temperature and humidity conditions to remain viable. The environment during kissing is not suitable for sperm survival.
Therefore, kissing does not cause pregnancy. If you have any concerns about kissing or pregnancy, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
