I'm not in fear of getting pregnant, I just want to know if there's a HIGH chance of
me getting pregnant by the events that took place, sperm count,...

By unprotected I mean sex without a condom.

I had vaginal sex with a male unprotected. The first time he ejaculated and pulled
out. He might've did the same twice that session. 8 hours later we had sex again
unprotected. He ejaculated again 2 times. He pulled out first, wiped his penis off
and reentered and then pulled out when he was about to orgasm again. The last time
wasn't long.

I'm not sure if I was fertile at the time or not. Does it seem like he wouldn't have
enough sperm left to get me pregnant? I know a lot of guys are considered infertile
if they have a low sperm count.

Does anyone here know the smallest amount of sperm that could be in a drop of semen?
Just wondering.

ps. I know that sperm could possibly be in precum but my boyfriend has had fertility
testing done and there's no sperm in his.

Thanks for your time.

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.
