Question

How long does sperm keep going for in the female after intercourse?

Answer 1

up to 72 hrs.

Answer 2

Up to 7 days

Answer 3

If a woman is fertile they usually live up to 5 days. But the woman's egg is only viable for about 24 hours. How potent the sperm are depends on the man and also how much sperm he is producing, i.e. I've heard it is better when TTC to have s*x every other day rather than every day because it allows the sperm a chance to build up their virility.

Answer 4

If you have s*x during your fertile time (where there is receptive cervical mucus) sperm can get into your tubes and hang out there for about 3-5 days, waiting for egg.  During non-fertile times of the cycle, the hostile cervical mucus will kill the sperm.  

Answer 5
