Its amazing how many women actually get pregnant unprepared because they thought that only penetration can impregnate them. It is important for us to understand just how far the sperm will go, and how long it can keep on going.
A fertile young man can make around 1000 sperm per second in its testes. Each of this sperm carries half the genes that can make a baby. Once the sperm is released from the penis, they usually survive for 48 hours, depending also on the environment.
While having intercourse or just playing around, there are two kinds of fluids released by the penis. The first of this is the pre-ejaculate or pre-cum, which is a lubricant made by a gland in the penis. The second fluid is released during ejaculation and is semen. This fluid is made in the testicles and carries sperms along with any sexually transmittable infections.
Experiences from lovers told us that you can get pregnant from the pre-ejaculation. When you might be playing around with your guy, and he becomes very aroused his pre-cum on the tip of the penis may contain sperm. While he might be rubbing his penis on your vagina, even without penetration and unknown to you, his resilient sperm might already be making their headway to your egg. The pre-cum has enough of the swimmers to arrive at your uterus and the fallopian tubes. What’s worse is that the sperm can live for 3-5 days in a very favorable environment, like inside your wet womb. So even if you’re infertile, once the sperm touches the mucous in your vulva, which aids it in going inside your reproductive system, the sperm can thrive there. This makes conception eventually possible even if you had sex or were playing around several days before ovulation.
However, there were debates on just how the pre-ejaculate contains spermatozoa. Several small studies proved that the pre-ejaculate fluid can actually pick up sperm from a previous ejaculation. So for such reason, it will be better if you’re male partner will urinate in between ejaculations so as to clear the urethra of sperm.
