A member asked:
This is really embarassing but i got sperm on a cut on my hand. could i produce antibodies to it that cause infertility? i'm really scared!!

Doubtful: I do not think this would cause infertility. Of more concern is the exposure of body fluids to an open wound. Viruses such as HIV and hep B can be transmitted through open wounds.
