Under normal circumstances, girls will ovulate once a month, which is called the ovulation period. The ovulation period is the best time for conception, but the vitality of the egg has a certain time limit. So, if you want to conceive, you must seize the right opportunity to have sex.
How long can an egg survive after being released?
The survival time of eggs is 1-2 days, and their strongest fertilization ability occurs within 24 hours after ovulation. Sperm entering the female reproductive tract can survive for 2-3 days, so sexual activity during ovulation is the easiest to conceive, and the further away from ovulation, the less likely it is to conceive. The period of about 10 days before and after ovulation, which is approximately 5 days, is considered the fertile period, while the rest of the time is considered the relatively safe period. You can have sexual intercourse once a day during ovulation.
Normal women of childbearing age usually have one egg mature and released from the left or right ovary every month. After the egg is released from the follicle, it usually takes 8-10 minutes to be taken into the fallopian tube cavity by the fimbriae of the fallopian tube and reach the connection point between the ampulla and isthmus of the fallopian tube. Then the egg stays here, waiting for the arrival of sperm. Fertilization usually occurs within 12 hours after ovulation, and the entire fertilization process takes about 24 hours.
The lifespan of eggs is much shorter than that of sperm, with a survival time of 12-24 hours. If the egg enters the fallopian tube and meets the sperm within 24 hours, the sperm and egg can combine for fertilization. If the sperm and egg lose the opportunity to meet at this stage, the egg loses the ability to fertilize and dies. Therefore, having sexual intercourse within 1-2 days before and after ovulation in the middle of menstruation is the only way to have the possibility of pregnancy.
The above is what the editor wants to introduce to you today! To successfully prepare for pregnancy, it is necessary to improve the quality of eggs. Participating in more physical exercise can achieve this goal!
