      What are you going to do at year 9 and 12 months 29 days?

        So they can extend it but the quality will be reduced and likely I won’t be able to have kids. It was already pretty shot due to surgical trauma. Likely I just won’t be able to sire children.

        Probably best for the world in that case

        I eat lots of stuff after the expiration date and I’m just fine. However, that’s probably not the best analogy to use when we’re talking about spermcicles.

      Under proper storage, sperm will last indefinitely. At least based on what sperm banks say
