How long can washed sperm live?
I have read anywhere from 6-48 hours. Anyone have any experience or knowledge about this.
Long story short I had my iuis on the early side of ovulation

THAT is the million dollar question. I think most would agree that while washed sperm may be able to live past 24 hours, it loses it potency at that point. In all honesty however...there does seem to be a LOT of conflicting information out there.

I just asked my RE this question and he said they can live for 2 days in you.

It really is a million dollar question and there are no conclusive studies online (at least I can't find them)! I need to stop obsessing and just trust the timing of my iui!
