GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -A normal ovulation cycle lasts for about 24 hours each month. Once an egg is released from an ovary, it will die or dissolve within 12 to 24 hours if it’s not fertilized. If fertilization doesn’t occur, the egg and your uterine lining will shed.

Detailed explanation-2: -After it’s released, the egg moves down the fallopian tube and stays there for 12 to 24 hours, where it can be fertilized. Sperm can live inside the female reproductive tract as long as five days after sexual intercourse under the right conditions.

Detailed explanation-3: -Eggs are viable (available to be fertilized by a sperm cell) for about 12-24 hours after ovulation. However, sperm cells are viable in your reproductive tract for up to five days, meaning the fertile window can last six days total.

Detailed explanation-4: -Following ovulation, the egg is capable of fertilization for only 12 to 24 hours. Contact between the egg and sperm is random. Once the egg arrives at a specific portion of the tube, called the ampullar-isthmic junction, it rests for another 30 hours.

Detailed explanation-5: -The egg stays in the fallopian tube for about 24 hours waiting for fertilization by a single sperm. What is fertilization? After you ovulate, your egg stays in the fallopian tube for 12 to 24 hours waiting to be fertilized by one of the 250 million sperm (on average) that your partner ejaculates during sex.
