A member asked:
Is there any sperm still present in hand after washing hands with soapand water? if yes would it be transferred from one place to other?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely. Unlikely.: A good washing with water will do just fine in rinsing away sperm. Soap is optional, but using any typical soap is fine too. No worries.
