A member asked:

If someone masturbate and touch any surface, do sperm transfer to that surface? if i touch a dry surface (that may have dry semen or sperm) and then insert my finger into my vagina , can i be pregnant by this? i'm really getting anxious?

Sperms are very sensitive to temperature, and pH. They essentially die off quite quickly in abnormal environments. Dried sperm on a non human surface will have no viable sperm.

Pregnancy is not possible in above circumstances. Sperm is not viable on inanimate surfaces. Contraception remains otherwise key in avoiding undesired pregnancy and associated anxiety, specifically when intercourse becomes possible.
