Patient's question:
How long does it take for sperm and egg to meet and get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Hello, friend. Sperm and egg meeting can form a zygote. The zygote is then transported to the uterine cavity via the fallopian tube, where it seeks a suitable implantation site and implants. This entire process generally takes 2-3 days. After fertilization in the ampulla of the fallopian tube, the egg develops while moving toward the uterus. It reaches the uterine cavity 2-3 days later and can embed itself in the nutrient-rich endometrium within 6-8 days, where it continues to develop into a fetus.
