Both couples who want to have a baby are very concerned about when they can successfully conceive, and they also pay a lot of attention during the preparation period, such as diet, pregnancy tests, etc. After doing a good job of preparing for pregnancy, both couples know that the ovulation period is the time with the highest chance of conception. But it is unclear how long it takes for sperm to encounter egg implantation?
The process of combining male sperm and female egg is the process of fertilization, which takes about 24 hours. After the fusion of sperm and egg chromosomes, it means that the fertilization process is completed. Sexual activity is when a man ejaculates semen into a woman's vagina, and the sperm moves forward with the tail, quickly entering the cervix. The fastest time for sperm to travel from the vagina to the fallopian tubes is only a few minutes, and the latest is four to six hours, usually around an hour.
Six or seven days after successful fertilization, implantation begins at one-third of the uterus. Completion of implantation means that the embryo begins to develop in the uterus, and at this point, the woman can conceive the fetus.
Pregnancy is a complex process, and in order to complete it, both partners must have certain reproductive conditions. Firstly, the male must have normal sperm with a sperm motility greater than 60%. If the sperm motility is less than 15% to 20%, it indicates abnormal sperm. Women's ovarian health can exclude mature and healthy eggs, which is also a key factor in successful conception. Otherwise, it will not be able to better combine with sperm, naturally affecting the chances of pregnancy.
