Does anyone know how long sperm lives inside the female body?
Answer:
My mom is a RN...I also had the same ?? ...Usually 3-5 days...The male sperm die faster than the female.. An average is 3 days...If your mucus is thick, they tend to last up to 5 days.... I went to google and typed in sperm survival... A bunch of web sites come up. They have ALOT of answers to these types of questions...Hope this helps, and good luck !
It can live up to five days.
I don't have a medical background, but have been trying to conceive for nearly a year.
In lots of research, that's the longest I've heard. Some of the weaker ones will die within 24 hours though.
It's safe to assume that they will start dying off within a few hours, becoming fewer and fewer in number until 5 days later, when all should definitely be dead.
2 days
About 3 days
like a few others have said it can last 2-3 days average, and up to 5 days in the best, most fertile cervial mucus.
you're really stressing about this sperm thief, aren't you??
I had a nurse friend tell me the other night that it was 72 hours but I have also heard that it is 48 hours.

Sperm can live in a woman's body for up to six days — possibly seven. That's why most pregnancies result from fertilization by sperm that have been waiting in a woman's reproductive tract days before the release of her egg — ovulation — takes place.
Outside the body — where they're not being nourished and protected by a woman's cervical mucus and vaginal secretions, or the warmth and moisture of a man's urethra and reproductive tract — sperm die anywhere between a half an hour to four hours after being ejaculated. If the ejaculate has dried out, or has been wiped or washed off, there are no longer any living sperm to worry about.
Hope this information helps!
Up to 5 days.
