A member asked:
Could semen in a bath cause pregnancy after 40 hrs after drainage and refilling, if a female sat on the remnants of that semen.or would water kill it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Sperm are pretty fragile and sensitive to lack of moisture, temperature and chlorine in water. Viable sperm would be very unlikely to survive even an hour in the scenario you describe. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
