I think it is just a few mintues.  But ask a professional doctor who specializes in this.

Sperm can get into the fallopian tubes within 5 minutes after ejaculation, but it can take up to an hour. But the first sperm usually cannot fertilize the egg. It takes sperm many hours inside the cervix, uterus, or fallopian tubes before it's ready to fertilize the egg, this is called capacitation. During capacitation, the outside of the sperm is prepared for entry into the egg.

Ovulation occurs usually 14 days after the first day of your last period. During ovulation the egg may live for 24 hours. Sperm however can live up to 5 days in your body. So if you have sex on a Monday but ovulate on Wednesday of that same week. There is a high chance that you can get pregnant.

Yes. Your body produces more than one egg over your reproductive years. You just wouldnt become pregnant during that month since you donated an egg. Also harvesting time is very specfic and you have to get into the doctor's office within a few hours on a specific day. Remember if you donate an egg it means that some child is out there that is part of you that you will never know, so get all the information online and from your doctor before doing this.

It won't be easy. You could try using a desk lamp and an thermometer to monitor the temperature.The temp need to be between 99.5 and 100.5 F. Even a degree to high or low can hurt the embryo. You can reduce the heat by about 1/2 a degree after the first five days.

Ok. Since you dont want the wedding before the baby,  let me just say that it all depends. I think that your young (I am too) but. thats not the point. \n\nBuy a fertility monitor. It tells you when your ovulating and the best times for you to get pregnant. You could go see your doctor and get a routine exam. \n\nThere is no way to tell about how long it takes, some women it the first try, some it takes years. Tell your fiance to cool down. It could be his sperm count too! \n\nI would also wonder about his motives. Its is strange that a man (I am assuming your age) would want the financial and mental pressure a child brings to a relation ship. Can you privde your baby with everything you want it to have. Everything it needs. Do you have insurance?? Ask yourself these questions. \n\nMake sure its right for BOTH of you, not just him.  If he backs out at the last minute, your stuck.  Sorry sister, just want to make sure your aware.

Depending on the state you are in, the GIFT procedure costs between $8-15,000 per attempt.  It has a success rate of approximately 25%-30%, which is actually not bad, all things considered equal.  For example, artificial insemination has only a 5%-25% success rate, but is only $300-$700 per attempt.  In vitro has a 28%-35% success rate, but is as costly as GIFT at $8-$15,000.  IVF using donor eggs has the highest success rate at 43%, but costs anywhere between $10-$20,000 per attempt.  ZIFT is about equal to GIFT, with a 25%-30% success rate and a cost of anywhere between $8-$15,000 each time.  Intracytoplasmic sperm injection has slightly higher success at 35%, but costs upwards of $10-$17,000 per attempt.  These results and costs will vary a bit by state, but hopefully that helps.

It has happened but, it's not a real high possibility. A egg needs a soft lining to implant into. You are shedding that lining on your period. It rebuilds in the 14-18 days that a egg is maturing in your ovary. You get pregnant at ovulation which is mid way between a period in a 4 week cycle it's week 2. Even in a irregular cycle you are bleeding """"because you have ovulated already"""""" and did not conceive. You bleed 14 to 16 days after ovulation regardless of if you have regular periods. You are not going to be ovulation while your lining is shedding. If by a freak chance you did ovulated while bleeding the egg would have no place to implant and chances are good the egg would flow out with your menstrual blood. It dose increase the chance of getting a infection thou because your cervix is open "the pathway to the womb" to allow blood out and that allows Bactria on a penis into your uterus.

it depends from the country you are. in some countries it takes even months and years.I know that in US it takes long enough...in EU it takes 10 days to 6 months. To know exactly the time you should go ask the office where your folder is, they might give you an approximate time. For sure don't wait till they call you. Good luck to both of you!

in vitro is a means of inducing pregnancy for couples unable to procreate naturally due to injury, sickness or other reasons. In vitro is carried out by first extracting sprem and egg from the couple if they are healthy or else from a donor. These are then fertilized in the lab in a growth media and once the sperm fertilizes the eggs the embryo is allowed to divide until the 8 cell stage before several healthy ones are selected to be inserted back to the woman or to a surrogate. Then the embryo will naturally embed itself in the uterus and form a fetus.

your body is all confused right now by the hormones that you are taking.  it was expecting one thing and it got another.  you never know what could have happened in your ovaries.  you could possibly have ovulated.  just because there is that chance, you should have protected sex for the next few weeks, and take a pregnancy test in two or three weeks.

This is an IVF baby. Not really a test tube baby. "Test tube" is a terrible name for it, invented in the late 70's when this was a very new and controversial technique. IVF stands for in-vitro fertilization. They take the mans sperm and the womans egg and fertilize them in a tube (ie-outside the womens body). Then the egg is fertilized they implant the embryo (called a blastocyst at this point) back into the womens uterus and she carries the pregnancy and gives birth the normal way. I hope this answers your question.

Your OB-GYN can insert an IUD and you don't have to worry about pregnancy for 5 to 10 years depending on the type used.  It can be removed in the doctor's office without any surgery and little discomfort if you decide you want to become pregnant later.

Yes, depending on what you mean by "after my period"  Ovulation usually happens 14 days after a woman starts bleeding, and it can be fertilized at any point thereafter for about 4 days.  It doesn't implant in your uterus for about a week after fertilization though.

Freezing is a very traumatic procedure for an embryo and not all embryos survive. It is normal for one or more of the cells in the embryo to die as a result of the freezing and thawing procedure. However, provided that the majority of the cells in an embryo survive, the embryo still has a chance to establish a pregnancy. \n\nEmbryos can be frozen at different times after fertilization. Most typically, embryos are frozen 1, 3 or 5 days after the sperm and egg were put together. Freezing is a stressful process for an embryo, and only embryos that are growing well in the laboratory will tolerate the freezing procedure. \n\nStep 1. Before an embryo can be frozen, all the water that it contains must be removed. Since water expands in size as it turns to ice, water inside the embryo would burst (kill) the embryo if we simply placed it in the freezer. To prevent the embryo from shriveling as the water is extracted, we replace the water with antifreeze. Antifreeze is a solution that does not expand in size when it freezes. The embryo is cooled to room temperature as the water is replaced with antifreeze. \n\nStep 2. When most of the water has been removed the embryo is inserted into a carefully labeled vial, or more typically a small straw, and placed in the cooling chamber of a controlled rate freezer. \n\nStep 3. The embryo is then cooled very slowly at -0.30C per minute. Slow cooling like this allows the embryologist to have precise control over the freezing process, to maximize water extraction from the embryo and to prevent formation of large ice shards that could pierce the embryo. \n\nStep 4. The cooled straw is placed into carefully labeled metal canes and lowered into the tank with other frozen embryos. The entire process takes several hours and the embryo(s) are stored frozen at –1960C in liquid nitrogen. Liquid nitrogen is a safe and effective coolant, which is easy to work with in the laboratory. \n\nNo one knows what the maximum storage period might be. Procedures for human embryo freezing were developed in 1984 and only went into widespread use in the late 1980's. This means that the longest time a human embryo has been stored is 12-15 years, and typically, patients that have left embryos in storage for this long are not coming back for them. Some patients have come back after 10-12 years and the embryos have been thawed successfully. Beyond this time frame, we don't know how long an embryo will remain viable. \n\nThawing the embryos is simply a reversal of the freezing procedure.
