Dead Men Have No Sperm… Or Do They?

If you thought making babies was an activity reserved for the living, welcome to your new reality: a world where procreation is almost always possible, even after you’re dead.
As the name suggests, post-mortem sperm retrieval (PMSR) refers to the practice of harvesting sperm from the deceased. And pulling that off requires some know-how. Cappy Rothman, a Los Angeles urologist who first performed the procedure, initially proposed three potential ways of getting the job done. One: induce ejaculation by administering a drug that causes the body to convulse. Two: remove the reproductive organs and retrieve the sperm on the operating table. Three: the old-fashioned way, by manual stimulation. Rothman told journalist Jenny Morber that when he ran that last option by a coworker, he was told, “Hey doc, I’ve been asked to do a lot of things as chief resident of neurosurgery but if you think I’m going to jerk off a dead man you’re crazy.”
