For the last 3 months now I've had this anxiety issue with sperm whenever I shower. Afraid that if any leaks or if I touch the shower handle (bath sponges on both sides) that sperm might possibly get on it if it was on my hands and it just causes a lot of anxiety. Would sperm honesty be able to survive on a bath sponge? For how long? Would it even be a threat for someone? Thanks

I would really appreciate somebody giving me peace of mind on this if there is factually no reason for me to be sweating this. Thanks.
(Not that I just want you to tell me what I want to hear, just facts)

Hi Owl,

Since it sounds like you're looking for information on how pregnancy does or does not happen, I think these pieces are a great place to start:
