When i'm having sex with my bf there's this white
transparent color substance that gets out from him
before we do the act, i'm asking if this substance is
potent? Can it get me pregnant?

The substance that you are referring to is most likely
pre-ejaculate fluid - it's also commonly called
'precum'. This is a clear and colorless fluid that
comes from a man's penis when he is sexually aroused.
The main function of this fluid is to prepare the
urethra for the passage of sperm - it acts to
neutralize any acidity due to residual urine traces. It
also helps to lubricate the foreskin to facilitate
entry into the vagina.
To answer your question as to whether this can make you
pregnant, there is unfortunately no definite answer.
Some studies suggest that any sperm within the pre-
ejaculate fluid is more or less ineffectual at causing
pregnancy. But again, there have been no large-scale
studies done to verify this.
If you are concerned about getting pregnant then I
would suggest you practice some method of safe sex such
as using condoms or some other manner of birth control.
While there is no clear link between this fluid and
pregnancy, this does not rule out the possibility of
there being some sperm contained within it. It's always
best to play it safe.
