How long does sperm survive?

If I accidentally got sperm on my hands one night at around 9:00 at night and then fingered my girlfriend the next day is there anyway she could be pregnant? She is also on the pill.

You are welcome!! It's that time of year, so yes. I'm gonna go with allergies as well. I just wanted to point out that people saying that coughing and sneezing not being related to pregnancy is incorrect.

Wow. Some people sure are rude!! The sperm doesn't live that long, so you don't have anything to worry about. I do agree with the "washing your hands" comment, though. Don't stress, dear. And to clear it up, coughing and sneezing actually DOES happen in early pregnancy, but that isn't until around week 5 or so. I had severe cold like symptoms when I found out I was pregnant with my children.

No she isn't, but start washing your hands more especially before you touch her is easy for girls to get infections there.

Coughing and sneezing? No hun that isnt a pregnancy symptom. She probably has a cold or allergies. You really need to educate yourself before continuing being sexually active
