how long does sperm live inside a woman
Okay, for starters, when we ovulate the egg will live in our body for about 48 hours.(2 days) If during this time an egg is not fertilized, then it will breakdown and die off... Sperm can live in a woman for about 3-5 days, although some conservatives reports say up to one week. Lets say you have a PERFECT 28 day cycle, and you ovulate on day 14..If you had sex on day 11, the sperm could stay alive long enough to fertililze the egg.
