What do you mean by post-ovulation?
  • 1 answers

Meghna Thapar 5 years, 4 months ago

After ovulation – when the egg is released from the follicle – there is a period of between 12 and 48 hours when the egg is available to be fertilised by a mature sperm.

Sperm can last for up to five days inside a woman’s body, sustained by the cervical mucus – so often, just after ovulation, sperm already waiting in the fallopian tubes will fertilise the egg after it has just been released. 

Healthy, active sperm take around six hours after ejaculation to swim through the cervix and the womb into the fallopian tube to meet a waiting egg, so for one to two days after ovulation, it is still possible to fall pregnant.
