A member asked:
Active and healthy sperm will take around 6 hours after ejaculation to swim from the cervix to the uterus ? is this true ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Myths: No. That is not true. It takes longer than that. It is thought that it takes at least one day. Sperm can survive for five days inside of the female and thus sperm can cause pregnancy from one to five days after being left inside of the vagina.
