However, the average sperm will live just 3-4 days even after making it to the fallopian tubes. Only the heartiest of sperm will get a chance at fertilizing the egg. While a spermâs lifespan lasts several days, a womanâs egg is only viable for one day after it is released.
There are many different environments sperm can live in after ejaculation, and the most common are probably inside of a sexual partnerâs mouth, vagina, or anus, in a condom, or on clothing or bed sheets. Sperm will generally have the longest lifespan in a moist and protective environment, such as a womanâs vagina. Inside of a womanâs reproductive organs, sperm can live anywhere from a couple minutes or up to three days.
