Can dry sperm cause pregnancy?

Reading online about sperm viability has left me a bit confused. If there's any dry sperm present, say, on clothes or skin, is it still capable of causing pregnancy? I need to know the reality of this.

No, dry sperm cannot cause pregnancy at all. Once semen dries up, the sperm die and are completely inactive. You don't need to try any remedies or take emergency pills for this.

I completely understand the anxiety you are feeling right now, health scares can really mess with your peace of mind. But rest assured, medically, once sperm is dry, it is dead and cannot fertilize an egg.

Hey! Don't worry, dry sperm is completely harmless. Sperm need a warm, wet environment to survive, so once it dries on skin or clothes, the risk is totally gone.

As a parent, I understand how young people get so stressed about these things due to lack of information. Don't worry beta, dry semen cannot lead to pregnancy. Just wash your hands and relax.
