Intercourse question (may be graphic?)

January 12, 2004

HI girls,

My DH and I decided we would TTC this year I just had a lap/hys

that confirmed a fused uterus and a vaginal septum removed (in case

you may not have read one of my earlier posts).

Please excuse me if I'm too graphic, but I can't think of any other

way to ask...

I find that after intercourse the sperm often comes right back out. I

joke with my DH saying they are swimming in the wrong direction, but

truly wonder if this happens to other women and what you do - if

anything - to avoid this. Any advice would be helpful!

thanks,

Valentina

Fused UD, TTC #1

>hi valentina,

just wanted to let you know that I had heard it is not good to " tip "

too far (ie: standing on head, many pillows, or yoga). It is said

that this causes the sperm to pool behind the cervix. Don't know

how true this is, with good cervical mucus it might not matter. I

found that laying on my back with my knees bent works best for about

15-20 minutes, after that most of the sperm are no good (harsh

environment in the vagina).

best of luck

lisa
