Bit of a weird question...how long does sperm live outside the human body?!
Question: Bit of a weird question...how long does sperm live outside the human body.?
I've looked online for this information and it's very conflicting. Basically I'd like to know if there is sperm somewhere on my hand, and I touch my girlfriend's vagina an hour or two later, are the sperm still alive.? Or am I being paranoid and worrying for nothing.? Do they die after a few minutes in open air, or are they still alive.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
There seems to be this persistent rumor that it dies nearly instantly with air, but obviously if that were true sperm banks wouldn't exist. If it were kept warm and moist it could last for quite a while. A trace on your hand will likely have dried up and died within an hour's time though.Health Question & Answer
