  schema:description "The seeds stay in the prostate and give off most of their radiation in the first few months, almost all of it absorbed inside you. You can be around other people normally. For about two months, avoid having children on your lap for long and avoid long close contact with anyone pregnant, use a condom for the first few ejaculations in case a seed comes out, and carry the card you are given."@en ;
