Men do not have (live, viable) semen in thier pre-cum, provided that they urinated since thier last ejaculation, so that's not at all odd or indicative of any fertility issues in your S.O. :-) As a matter of fact, that seems to be one of the biggest things people go on about as to how to make withdrawl work, other than the control of the male, of course. ;-) If you're trying to prevent, then the best course of action is to assume that all male partners have SuperSemen, and that it will take only 1 to get you pregnant. If you and your partner are using withdrawl as your prefered method, then perhaps looking up the information in the Vulvapedia on it may help alleviate your concerns? It is actually an effective form of birth control, when done properly. Also, any time you are unsure, don't be afraid of taking Plan B. It works best when taken within 72 hours of the semen exposure. Vulvapedia also has a good source of information on Plan B, as well! :-) If for some reason you can't/won't take HBC, then perhaps you should look in to combinging FAM with withdrawl. The book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" is AWESOME,and is the go-to book for this method.
