Yes! Pre cum comes from the same glands that produce sperm. The sperm count in precum is extremely low, but there is some sperm in it.

In regards to the message that said pre-cum came from the same glads that produce sperm...
I went to an website and asked an expert, he said that pre-cum comes from a different glad and its purpose it to clean out the tube before the sperm is realed so it has a better chance of making it. Does anyone know if this is true?

I can assure you that it is not true.

Sperm begins as "germ cells" in the "testes", they then move up into the "epididymis" to mature for a surprisingly long time (several weeks). They eventually move along the "vas deferens" (tubes from testes) and are mixed with fluids from the "prostate" and "seminal vesicles" to form what is commonly known as "semen".

This whole process can take upto *seven* weeks!

Pre-cum is fluids from the "prostate" and "seminal vesicles" which are situated along the "vas deferens".

The reason you can not be 100% there is not any sperm in pre-cum is because you can not guarantee that the are no spermatazoa (single sperm cells) in the "vas deferens" at any given time.

Even if a guy has already ejaculated, not ejaculated for over 24 hours, has just peed, anything. Nothing can ensure (not even a vasectomy can be 100% [although it is usually fairly accurate]) that no sperm are included in the pre-cum

it only takes *one* sperm to fertilize an ovum (egg)

i can't get this to view as a picture no matter what I do, no matter what format I use, except villagephotos which keep shrinking it, so click the link for a pretty diagram of the male reproductive system.
