A member asked:
During foreplay can saliva kill sperm as me and partner are trying for a baby?will this affect it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Saliva & sperm: Studies show that saliva can have a negative effect on sperm. If your partner has enough sperm then it's unlikely to make a major difference, but if he has a low sperm count then every single sperm may count.
