TTC After a Loss

strange question about semen (not to be confused with sea men)

strange, possibly tmi-warrented question...

after a man ejaculates inside a woman, how long afterward can it leak out, possibly being confused with ewcm?

Re: strange question about semen (not to be confused with sea men)

  • don't know how long. from my experience usually a couple hours.

    But ewcm is stretchy and semen is not. also, i have read that if you rub the discharge between your fingers. semen will evaporate/disappear while ewcm will not.

  • I think one of them is supposed to float while the other one dissolves.

  • I've had it reappear the next morning, but it's not stretchy like ewcm.

  • You can do the water test. EWCM will float in water and semen will dissolve.


  • as far as stretching goes, i have seen semen stretch. and since this is only my second month charting, i am not as familiar with the stretchiness of ewcm.

    water test... interesting.

    thanks ladies!

  • They never ask these questions on Jeopardy!  You all are a wealth of knowledge, and no one outside of our little world will ever knowSad
  • If we get it on before bed, I've seen it still the next morning (even if I have a shower, etc). I've found that it is a little stretchy though.
