Detailed explanation-1: -Ejaculated sperm remain viable for several days within the female reproductive tract. Fertilization is possible as long as the sperm remain alive-up to five days. Sperm can also be preserved for decades when semen is frozen.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sperm would have a 5% probability of surviving more than 4.4 days and a 1% probability of surviving more than 6.8 days.
Detailed explanation-3: -Usually, the sperm reaches the egg within 15 to 45 minutes of ejaculation. However, the process could be much longer than that if you haven’t ovulated yet by the time you have sex, because sperm can live inside a reproductive tract and wait for an egg for up to five days.
Detailed explanation-4: -For fertilization to occur, sperm must reach the egg within a specific timeframe. Sperm can survive for up to 72 hours after ejaculation, but the egg can survive for no more than 24 hours after ovulation. If sperm reach the fallopian tube too early, they risk dying before the egg shows up.
