How Ovulation Works
Ovulation occurs when a mature egg is released from the ovary and travels through the fallopian tube. This typically happens around the middle of the menstrual cycle, and the egg remains viable for about 12-24 hours. Sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for up to five days, making the fertile window longer.
