Can semen really get through clothes? I've heard that sperm can move with seminal fluid and get through two layers of clothing. Should I be worried about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, it is possible for sperm to pass through two layers of clothing along with seminal fluid. However, the chances of sperm successfully reaching the vagina and resulting in pregnancy in this scenario are very low. To reduce the risk of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, it is important to use proper protection such as condoms.

When addressing your concern about semen passing through clothes, it's important to understand a few key points:
-
Semen and Clothing: Semen can be absorbed by fabrics but does not actively move through multiple layers of clothing on its own.
-
Sperm Movement: Sperm are microscopic cells within seminal fluid and cannot swim through clothing layers.
-
Pregnancy Risk: For pregnancy to occur, sperm need to be deposited inside the vagina. Semen on the outside of clothing, especially with two layers, is very unlikely to result in sperm reaching the vaginal canal.
-
Hygiene and Precautions: If concerned about semen on clothing, changing clothes and washing the area can help reduce any minimal risk.
In summary, you generally do not need to worry about sperm moving through two layers of clothing. If you have specific concerns about contraception or sexual health, consulting a healthcare provider can provide personalized advice and reassurance.

View allI've been dealing with some issues related to urination and I'm worried it might be connected to my past habits. I started masturbating when I was 16, but I've stopped for over a year now. Even so, I'm experiencing night falls and a delay in urination. Could this be related to what I used to do, or might there be another cause? I'm really concerned and wondering what steps I should take to address this.
It's good that you've stopped the habit, but it may take time for your body to fully adjust. Difficulty with urination and nightfall can sometimes be related to underlying factors like stress, hormonal changes, or prostate health. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider to evaluate your symptoms and discuss potential treatment options.
