A member asked:

After washing the semen could there still be sperms left on my skin? when i'm washing my vagina is it possible that the sperm on my skin will enter?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Patrick Kohlitz answered

Unlikely: It's possible but unlikely; sperm will die relatively quickly on the skin.

Dr Seibert and 2 doctors agreed
