Abstract
The appearance of a pregnancy without sexual intercourse with vaginal penetration has always given rise to many very lively debates. It is most often described as miraculous by some popular beliefs. In reality, some specific situations can exceptionally lead to a pregnancy without penetration. The authors report the case of a 20-year-old girl who became pregnant without having previously had sex with vaginal penetration. However, she strongly suspected her fiancé of abusing her during his last visit to her home and she had fallen asleep when he left her. After her period was two months late, she decided to have a gynecological consultation, after which an ultrasound concluded that there was a continuous intrauterine pregnancy for 10 weeks of amenorrhea plus 3 days. The parents, informed of the situation, raised awareness and supported her so that she could keep the pregnancy and carry out the prenatal follow-up. The pregnancy progressed normally. She gave birth to a daughter weighing 2600 grams by elective caesarean section to keep her virginity, which she appreciated very much before her marriage to another man.
