How long can sperm live in latex condom?

Hours, why?: Intent of question unclear. Not exactly studied and would depend on temperature / environment / etc. Likely a few to several hours.

Here are some ...: Good Q but I doubt if being studied to answer your question. But based on the fastidious requirements for sperm survival, I guess sperms would not live longer than one day in considering the change of temperature, possible presence of spermicidal agents in some condom, natural degrading of semen, etc., making sperms less likely to survive long. I hope these info feeding your curiosity and concern
