A member asked:
How long does a sperm live in a female body ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Around 3-5 days: If sperm containing semen is deposited into the vagina, sperm can live up to 3-5 days or even longer, if the mucous in the vagina facilitates movement of the sperm into the uterus and fallopian tubes. The mucous is most hospitable around the time of ovulation.
