How long does sperm live in a womens body ?

In the proper moisture and mucus of the vagina/cervix/Fallopian tubes they have enough energy stores to live about 5 days. After that point their energy supply is gone, and they die unless revived by the conception they trigger.

Up to 48 hours. Once sperms are ejaculated in the semen, their maximal life span is 24 to 48 hours at body temperature.
