Could I be pregnant?

I had protected sex with my boyfriend, and after we found white stuff resembling seamen on the outside of the condom. We immediately thought it had split so we did the water test only to find the condom had no leak. Could the white substance still be from him or was it from me (although it seemed too white to be from me)? I am currently not on any contraceptive pill, I stopped 3 weeks ago and will start a different pill in one weeks time. I'm very worried I could become pregnant, or am I just being paranoid? Should I take the morning after pill?

    Women produce a white substance during sex as well as men do, and if the condom was used correctly, it is unlikely the substance was semen. It's possible, but unlikely. I've thought the same thing as you, that it must be semen, but I also remembered I didn't even ejaculate when I saw it, so I know female secretions can in fact resemble semen in appearance. Also, semen isn't really white ,more of a cream color, which would be similar to your own secretions. If you place it on a white napkin you'll see what I mean.
