Don't listen to whoever said pull out! Shame on whoever said it. That is a load of crap not to mention they still swim when on the skin so if any gets near the vaginal opening they can and will swim inside. Sperm live for up to five days once inside the body, so this method can be very risky. When sperm are produced some are deformed and don't swim straight or some swim slower. It only takes one sperm to fertilize an egg, so be careful and use a condom. If latex isn't your thing try lambskin, it's a much better alternative though more expensive. And spermiside condoms DO NOT contain enough spermiside to kill many sperm. If these break there is still a HIGH risk of pregnancy.

Just one sperm does it. However millions of sperm are released. They have to overcome substantial difficulties to reach the ovum. About half of them will go to the Fallopian tube (there are two of the tubes) which does not have the ovum and they will all die. Those which reach the right Fallopian tube have to swim upward climb the equivalent of Mt.Everest (from their viewpoint) till they chance upon the ovum. Those few which reach the ovum try to drill their way into it. The first one that manages to do so, fertilises the ovum. The rest are barred from entering the ovum. Because of the tremendous odds, sperm are shed in millions. However only one will make it to the end.

Only 1 sperm has to reach the egg to fertilize it (get pregnant). If 2 hit at the same time, the person will most likely be pregnant of a couple of twins!

Get it for good. You only need one sperm to break into the egg and form what we call a baby. And one more thing the strongest and the most fast sperm pentrates the egg.
So, get strong by keeping the temprature of your brief at a low and see the diference.

The 1 best swimming sperm wins--and does the job!

Just one is all that the egg will take, unless more than one miraculously gets in at the same exact time.
Once the sperm enters, a "force-field" sort of occurance prevents any more from entering.

Actually, only 1 sperm cell is needed for pregnancy... but the more the sperm, the more the changes for pregnancy cos hundreds (i mean hundrends of hundreds) of sperm cells die even before getting to their destination. For more info, check these sites...

as the sperm hits the uterus it slowly moves a thousand miles racing towards the fallopian tubes. longing for the destination to reach the ova-men and begin fertilization, only one sperm is needed to penetrate the egg and begin creation of the fetus.

One does the job but you need many because most get killed off on the way to the egg. The one lucky swimmer wins and makes the baby.

It takes many of them, Kinda like a SWAT TEAM entering a building some clear the way and others drill the hole, and the lucky ONE goes in and completes the mission. ( 9 months later you will receive your first child support check)
