Correct answer

Yes

Explanation

Pre-ejaculate is the clear, colourless, viscous fluid that emits from the urethra of a man's penis when he is sexually aroused.The fluid is primarily produced by the bulbourethral glands and is discharged during masturbation or at an early stage during sex, some time before the man fully reaches orgasm and semen is ejaculated. Pre-ejaculate neutralizes residual acidity in the urethra, creating a more favourable environment for the passage of sperm. Pre-ejaculate also acts as a lubricant during sexual activity. Pre-sperm can contain semen, and you can thus get pregnant from it.
