How long can sperm survive in a woman's body

Patient's question:

How long can sperm survive in a woman's body

Doctor's answer:

Sperm generally survive for 24 hours after ejaculation. After 12 hours of ovulation and 24 hours after ejaculation, even if the egg and sperm meet, they lose their fertilization ability. The above are the conditions for pregnancy. It is recommended to pay attention to your own situation. If you are indeed in the ovulation period and have continuous sexual intercourse or there is semen entering the vagina, it is still advisable to take emergency contraception promptly.
