Excess sperm in the female body is typically either expelled or absorbed. After ejaculation, sperm may travel to the fallopian tubes seeking an egg. Those that don't reach the egg are naturally disposed of by the female body's immune system. Some sperm might flow out of the vagina post-intercourse. This is a normal bodily process and does not negatively impact health.
