I always pee right after sex and it didnt hurt my chances of getting pregnant, they say laying there with your hips elevated increases your chances, but has not been actually proven. just b/c you get up and pee doesnt mean the sperm is all going to come out, as sperm can live 3-5 days….so I think you will be fine…I never once waited to pee after sex when ttc and we got pregnant the 2nd month of trying….

You can get up and pee after sex without having it impact your ability to conceive. The semen is in your vaginal canal . . . and some leakage is normal as the man ejaculates more than your can hold. By urinating after sex, you are cleaning out your urethra . . .not your vaginal canal.
Some people swear that you must stay in bed with your hips up for 15 – 30 minutes . . . but there is no proof that it makes a difference.
You dont have to go to the bathroom right away after sex to avoid a UTI. You can go to bathroom within an hour. And going to the bathroom right away after sex will not stop you from getting pregnant. I alway get up right away after sex and this has not stop me from getting pregnant. You’ll be ok. Good Luck. References :
As others have mentioned, yu can pee right afterwards, and it won’t harm your chances. His semen will come out, but not the sperm. They are on their way, going where they need to go.
Have you tried cranberry capsules, by the way? I have had severe UTIs since age 3. At age 10, I had an opration and didn’t have another UTI until age 14. Then I started getting them all the time again, or I would be unable to hold my urine. About five months ago I started taking cranberry capsules, and I haven’t had an infection since. I am also able to hold my urine like any normal person. You should definitely try them. Herbal remedies WORK. I am 19 years old now, and fortunately I can do my thing without having to worry about what my bladder can and can’t hold.
