A member asked:
How long can sperm stay in the anus after anal sex? would it all come out in the next bowel movement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: Sperm oozes out slowly and a full bowel movement should clear the rectum and anal canal fully. Sperm survives for 3-5 days in the vaginal area, but I don't know how long it would be viable in the anorectal canal and I strongly doubt that potential impregnation would be an issue. Your gynecologist may be more knowledgeable in this regard.
