Do i get conceived before rupture?

Question

I'm trying to understand my ovulation cycle better for conception. Is it possible to get conceived right before the egg ruptures, or does it typically happen afterwards? I'm tracking my fertile window.

Don't stress too much! Since sperm can live inside for up to 5 days, having relation before the follicle ruptures is actually the best way to conceive.

My doctor explained that the egg lives only for 24 hours, so having sperm ready in the system before rupture is very helpful.

Beta, try to stay calm and eat healthy foods. Keep track of your fertile days, trying a day or two before rupture is very good.

Himani Singhal · Answer

Please consult your fertility doctor for a follicular scan. They track the exact rupture timing so you can plan things perfectly.

Yes, I read that trying 1-2 days before ovulation/rupture increases the chances because sperm survives longer than the egg.
