Question 1

is there always no sperm in cowpers fluid?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

Not sure: I don't know the exact rate (not sure anyone really knows that) but precum does have sperm.  So, you can get pregnant from just that.  Remember, it only takes 1 sperm to get pregnant.  The "winning" sperm may be in the actual semen or in the precum.

There are no known medications to selectively stimulate Cowper's glands.
