Question 9

can drinking vinager kill sperm the next day?

Accepted Answer

NO: I have no idea where you heard this and there is absolutely no truth to it!
this may have come from the fact that an ancient folk method of birth control was using vinegar vaginally right after intercourse, but there is no evidence this works and vinegar can irritate vaginal tissues.

Ps by the next day there is a good chance you will already be pregnant!

Question 10

saliva kill sperm? if it does how long does it take?

Accepted Answer

Swallow: Swallow it and move on. There is no scientific study that has looked at this. If you are concerned after performing oral sex on a man and getting his sperm in your mouth then you may brush your teeth or use a mouthwash. There is absolutely no medical concern here.
