A member asked:

Would the chances of pregnancy or infection increase if the victim is raped more than once during same attack?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: The chance of pregnancy would depend on whether or not the victim was ovulating at the time of the attack. If so, then yes, in theory, increasing the amount of sperm exposure to the egg would theoretically increase the likelihood of fertilization occurring.
