How long after sex can the sperm still impregnate me?

Question

Hey there fellow Glow users! My husband and I had unprotected sex yesterday, February 10...I am projected to ovulate anytime in the next 5 days (or so Glow says)...can I get your opinions on what the chances are I could get pregnant from this?

Answer

Sperm actually lives up to 5 days. There has been research showing up to 7 but that's rare unless it's really good quality strong sperm.

Answer

You have. 3% chance of pregnancy throughout your cycle except for ovulation which is higher. Sperm can live up to 5 days so you do have a chance but I suggest giving it another go!

Answer

We had sex two or three days before I ovulated and got pregnant.

Answer

Strong sperm can live for 5 days or more I think.

Answer

And there im are theories that 'female' Sperm live longer so some would say your trying for a girl if you don't have sex again before you ovulate

Answer

5 days.

Answer

4-9 days. 9 days being super rare though. It's more likely to be around 4-7
