Precum and Sperm

[carmen.livejournal.com]

Okay, I've read that precum does not have sperm, and I've read that it does, and I've read that precum ITSELF doesn't have sperm, but if the guy has recently ejaculated then there will still be sperm in the general area from the last ejaculation. And I haven't been able to get scientific information from any of those - they're all just "what I've heard." Google hasn't been much help either.

Anyone here have a more definative answer? And possibly with some research or scientific information to support it?

My doctor told me (as well as my BF's told him) that precum does indeed have sperm in it. Not large amounts like if a guy were to ejaculate but enough to get you preggers. It only takes one.

pre-cum itself does not have sperm in it, however, it can carry sperm that are already in the urethra from a previous ejaculation and cause pregnancy. this is the answer i have found most often in my research.

And more specifically, in support of cancer research. I believe a lot of the proceeds (if not all) go to the Lance Armstrong Foundation. They're quite popular... apparently people (and celebrities) all over the country have them. I'm in Lanceville (Austin, TX) and I haven't jumped on the Lance Is The Best Guy Ever, Ever bandwagon, but those bracelets actualy intrigue me. I've seen tons of people all over town wearing them.

yeah, i'm in garland. (dallas,tx) and duh- yellow. i should've known. :)

Re: sorry, off topic

[sshorty.livejournal.com]

Er. Really? I grew up in Garland. Just moved to Austin almost two years ago from there. heh.

I would have never known about the bracelet if I hadn't seen it on the news. Lance is the biggest thing in Austin ever year during that bike riding thing... ;) Since he lives here/trains here these days, he belongs to Austin. Austinites get pissed when people in Plano claim him as their hometown boy. That's what my brother told me, at least. heh.

wow. and we've all heard such lovely stories that come outta "Plano" :P

Re: sorry, off topic

[carmen.livejournal.com]

yeah, what they said :)

I'm Austin, TX for the most part, though I also claim San Marcos and Austin as homes.

pre-cum has sperm. it's exactly like normal cum. i have my bio degree with a concentration in reproductive physiology. if there's anything i know, it's that. ;) pick up any general bio, human sexuality, or rep. phys. text book.

[carmen.livejournal.com]

Okay, question. According to this (http://www.livejournal.com/community/sextips/3719629.html), "Precum only picks up "leftover" sperm if an ejaculation has happened recently."

Is that accurate? That the pre-ejaculatory fluid does not come with sperm, but can pick up sperm from other places?

i'm sorry, i have no answer for you but it looks like you got your response right above.. in any case, when i read your post i thought that the title said "pre-cum and SPAM" HAHA! i was thinking, what the HELL?! and had to re-read three times to see that i'd misread..

[carmen.livejournal.com]

hehe. i do that ALL the time :p
