Actually, sperm can survive for up to eleven days, but most commonly do not survive more than three or four. How do I know? I have a baby now don't I?
it's a proven fact that sperm can't survive in the female body for longer then 72 hours, their is a less then 0.000000001% that sperm makes it to day 5
11 days is just impossible because
1) The female body sees sperm invades the bodies immune system kicks in and tries to destroy it. ( That's why we don't send one soldier in ^_^; )
2) sperm consumes it's self for energy, after 3 days it doesn't have the energy left to enter the egg

We were trying, and every fertility source said a few days after the period, not 14. It takes a while for sperm to swim upstream.
this has nothing to do with sperm, no clue why you should start trying so soon, maybe because no female menstruation cycle is the same, maybe it prepares the female body.
Who knows but this has nothing to do with sperm
