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: -Urination: Some people incorrectly believe that urinating after sex can flush out sperm from the vagina. However, as urine comes out of a small hole called the urethra, peeing after sex will not remove sperm from the vagina.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Lifespan of a Sperm inside Vagina A healthy sperm can live from a couple of hours to as long as five days after intercourse.
Detailed explanation-4: -Sperm survival and the fertile window After ovulation, an egg cell can only survive for about 12-24 hours. Since sperm can live for up to five days in the female body, this means the fertile window is six days long in total.
