A member asked:
When sperms are in cervical mucus so do they leave the semen and began to live in mucus ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Live ? The sperm will survive for a few days in either semen or female genital mucus. Both are supportive and neutral carriers of sperm. By 5-6 days after release they run out of energy stores and die.
