hi hanks for writing to us
semen dries up in normal temperatures sperms almost die when in dry environment
if semen is in a water bath i can survive little longer
depending on your situation there are chances that you can become pregnant,but still very low as semen could not have dried in 40 minutes there can be viable sperms..but still chances of pregnancy is very low
hope this information was useful
