The Penis and You And Zombie Sperm.
Lily and I were having a debate tonight as to how often a guy regenerates sperm. She was surprised when I told her it takes 74 days. I decide to educate my better half on some facts about sperm and the penis. Lily now has graduated with a diploma and is educated about the Penis. Later I plan to educate her about the male orgasm. But that is for another time. I thought I would share the knowledge she has learned here in my journal so that others might also gain knowledge.
The sperm regeneration cycle takes about 74 days. It is generally known that most men produce millions of new sperm every day. However, you might not know that these new sperm take about 2 ½ – 3 months to fully mature or that when sperm are initially formed they lack the ability to swim forward or fertilize an egg.
There’s a difference between 'sperm' and 'semen.' Sperm and semen are mistakenly used interchangeably, but they are not the same substance. Sperm cells are actually a part of the semen, which is the whitish, viscous fluid released from the penis, according to MedlinePlus. Sperm leaves the body through the mix of bodily fluids that makeup semen. This fluid contains fructose and proteolytic enzymes that facilitate the mobility of sperm outside the male reproductive tract.
90% of sperm ejaculated is deformed.
Not all sperm are created equal. Sperm can have a multitude of defects in the head, neck, or tail, such as two heads, two tails, and coiled tails — to name a few. These defects can potentially affect the ability of sperm to reach and fertilize an egg, but it does not mean men are infertile. Normal sperm, says the Mayo Clinic, have an oval head with a long tail.
Sperm is not hot.. it’s actually cold. A man may get caught up in the heat of the moment, but his testicles stay cool. They are about 7 degrees Fahrenheit cooler than the rest of the body. This temperature is necessary to help healthy sperm stay chilled compared to the rest of the body. “Radiator-like” veins pull heat away while muscles in the scrotum raise and lower the testicles to bring them either closer to the body’s warmth or further away.
Sperm comes in both genders.
Not all sperm are chromosomally male. Several sperm do carry the X chromosome, while others carry the Y chromosome. However, female sperm is actually stronger than male sperm, according to Harvard Health Publications. This means the likelihood of getting pregnant by a female swimmer is higher than a male one. If a father provides an X chromosome, the baby will be female, whereas if he supplies a Y chromosome, the baby will be male.
It takes 2 months to make sperm.
It may take a second for a man to release 1,500 sperm cells, but it takes months to mature in the testes. This regeneration cycle takes about two-and-a-half to three months to fully mature. Healthy sperm will not be ready to fertilize an egg until a new set of sperm — developed in healthy conditions — matures.
**2 months!!!!**
Zombie sperm!!!!
In vitro fertilization (IVF) makes it possible to use dead sperm to help form a healthy fetus. Typically, IVF technicians manually combine an egg and sperm in a laboratory dish and then transfer the embryo to the uterus, according to the American Pregnancy Association. Sometimes, a single sperm being inserted inside an egg may be “killed” after being beaten with a technologically advanced glass straw used for this process.
But as you can see, there's more to men's little swimmers than fertilization.
There now you are sperm educated
YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN, IF YOU'RE LUCKY
For most guys, the typical refractory period—the time between your last orgasm and when you'll be able to get it up again—is anywhere from a few minutes to an hour.
But one recent case study described a 25-year-old German man blessed with the mutant power of being able to continue to have sex within about 3 minutes after his climax.

By taking blood samples right after the man masturbated to some porn, the researchers found that his body produced essentially zero extra prolactin post-orgasm, which they surmised allowed him to achieve his multi-orgasmic feat.
