Add as a preferred source on Google

When you have pregnancy sex, you have many advantages. However, did you know that exposure to sperm can provide additional benefits when you have penis-in-vagina intercourse?

There is a great deal of concern among people that the sperm ejaculated during sex may somehow affect their unborn child, or that having sex may cause harm to their unborn child, but this is simply not true.

If you are pregnant, can you conceive another child? Is it safe or beneficial to have sex during pregnancy? What happens to sperm in a pregnant woman?

Where Does Sperm Go In A Pregnant Woman?

In the event that sperm and menstrual fluid are deposited in the vagina during penetrating vaginal sex, the baby will not be adversely affected. The majority of the sperm and menstrual fluid will simply exit the body through the vaginal opening [1].

With the help of the placenta, amniotic sac, and mucus plug covering your cervix, your baby has a very specific protection system. Additionally, your growing baby will be protected from coming into contact with your partner's penis [2].

Is It Possible To Conceive Another Child While Pregnant?

Superfetation or a pregnancy that begins after another has begun, is extremely unlikely for a pregnant woman to conceive again [3].

Despite the fact that superfetation occurs frequently in other mammals, it is highly unlikely to occur in humans for a number of reasons. Fewer than ten cases have been reported in the medical literature.

Can Sperm Be Beneficial To Pregnant Women?

Pregnant women are said to gain the following benefits from semen:

Prevention of pre-eclampsia:

Pre-eclampsia is an elevated blood pressure and urine protein disorder associated with pregnancy. Studies have linked semen to the prevention of pre-eclampsia. The risk of developing pre-eclampsia was reduced for pregnant women exposed to the seminal fluid of their biological father for at least six months prior to conception [4].

Labour induction:

Some experts believe that penis-in-vagina sex may induce labour in pregnant women who are overdue [5].

Mood improvement:

Having sex during pregnancy has been shown to boost moods and increase cardiovascular blood flow, and these benefits can also be passed on to the unborn child [6].

Remedy for morning sickness:

It has been suggested by a few experts that increased exposure to semen may be helpful in treating morning sickness. Further research is necessary to confirm these claims.

Is Sperm Safe For A Pregnant Woman?

In general, sperm is considered safe for pregnant women and newborns. However, if you have any concerns about the overall safety of sex during pregnancy, please consult with your doctor.

Does Sperm Pose Any Risks To Pregnant Women?

It is important to remember that sexually transmitted infections (STI) can still be transmitted during pregnancy, so appropriate protection should be taken if you intend to have sex during pregnancy [6].

On A Final Note...

Despite the fact that conceiving another baby is nearly impossible if you are pregnant, you should still consider the other benefits and risks of sexual activity as well. Contact your medical provider if you have any questions regarding the safety of sexual activity during pregnancy.
