How long does it take for sperm to meet the released egg after entering the vagina?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long does it take for sperm to meet the egg after entering the vagina?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, a mature egg released by the ovary typically takes 2 to 3 days to meet sperm in the ampulla of the fallopian tube and then reaches the uterine cavity in 3 to 4 days. If it is not fertilized, it degenerates within 24 hours.
Hello, it is possible that this is due to calcium deficiency. Symptoms may include pain, sweating, or muscle cramps. A blood calcium test can help with diagnosis. Calcium supplements like Gai Zhong Gai can be effective, and it is recommended to consume calcium-rich foods such as fish, bone broth, etc. Rest and nutrition should also be paid attention to.
