Can sperm be killed by shower gel?

Patient's question:

During this time, I always use soap to wash my body, and the shower gel others use smells especially fragrant, so I want to use it too. But I'm worried that the shower gel might kill sperm.

Doctor's answer:

What I told you is that shower gel will not harm sperm because both are external-use products that can be washed off with water, leaving little residue on the body. I suggest maintaining the best lifestyle, staying in a good mood, eating more nutrient-rich and easily digestible foods, eating plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, and paying attention to good hygiene. There's no need to overthink it. I also suggest not being overly anxious and paying more attention to local hygiene.
