A member asked:

Are there any documented cases of pregnancy through incidental/nonsexual contact with semen (i.e. touching money, doorknobs, other common items)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not in real life: In real life, that does not happen. No worries. Of course, touching objects can transmit diseases such as norovirus diarrhea. That's why it's good to wash one's hands after using toilet facilities.
