No more sperm if you have a baby in there. And I certainly hope you do not get an abortion. If you are pregnant and didn't want to be, you should have not had unprotected sex.

Hi Tristanangie,
Of course, most of above answers are totally correct. If you are pregnant, then sperm already died for a long time. Also, even if you just had an inter course, herbs (assuming they work from the oncept) could not have any effect a posteriori as sperm would be deep inside your body already.
This said I thought to provide you some clarification on effect of herbs as spermicide: first , no official research has been finalized, so let's be cautious. Second, even if herbs were effective, they could only be a complement to other form of contraception like diafragm... even so... it would never be sure at more than 90%.
Introduction clarified, yes, some herbs have spermicide effect. Reason is that sperm need the alkaline fertile mucus to survive the hostile, acidic conditions within the vagina so if you use herb that pertubate the acidity then you reduce chance for sperm to survive (not 100% once more). Just to give you one example: Calendula an extract made from the flowers has a high degree of spermacical activity. However the active constitutes are found in small quantity in the flowers and you will not be able to find it easily. You may like to know that some laboratory extract is being investigated for use as a vaginal suppository...
I recommend you the method of combined pill (best of the best contraception) + condom (for safety).
Cheers,

If you are already pregnant than there is no sperm to kill. When the sperm penetrates the egg, it ceases to become a separate egg and a sperm, it becomes a baby (or scientifically at that stage it is called a zygote). If you are pregnant there are no herbs that will cause a miscarriage.

are you really that ignorant?
if you're pregnant and really don't want a baby go get an abortion (not that I'm endorsing abortions but it's better than having an unwanted child that won't be properly cared for) or give it up for adoption
I can't believe you actually asked this question . . . did you really learn nothing at all from elementary school sex-ed? do you even understand that once sperm meets egg and that fertilized egg implants itself you're pregnant
you should've been worried about birth control
abortion is NOT a form of birth control, unfortunately there are some idiots in this world that use it as such

I dont condone this but feel everyone is entitled to as much information as possible and the right to choose. I don't know how old you are but you should talk to someone. If you are pregnant, then it is already too late. If you are within 24 hours up to 72 hours, see your doctor fast, as I believe there is a morning after pill, that can be taken to get rid of the fertalized egg.

You need to read up on the process of pregnancy. If you are pregnant....there is no sperm. It's a little late now. If you don't want to get pregnant, you should take PREcautions.

If you are pregnant, sweetie, there is nothing you can do to kill the sperm. Egg and sperm have formed. Baby is growing. My advice to you to combat this in the future-birth control.

If you're pregnant, it's far too late to kill the sperm that's already done its job! If you want to terminate your pregnancy, your choices are surgical abortion or RU-486, both of which require that you seek medical assistance.

If you are already pregnant then its too late to kill sperm...besides you can't kill the sperm once its in your uterus

If you think you are pregnant it's too late to worry about killing sperm. You see, you're pregnant....killing sperm now won't help. That's like saying "I think my dog is dead, what is the best food for him."
