How long can sperm live in someone's hand ? if the persons hand is dry
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Who knows?: Thank you for bringing up this question to professionals. In my lifelong study and practice in urology of 35 yrs, I have never heard any discussion on sperm survival in one's dry hand. I assume you worry about pregnancy from sperm "contamination" and transfer, is it so? If any doubt, just wash hand and dry, and wait for 15-30 minutes before engaging in sexual acts. Or you may take this as project.
