Conception: The Amazing Journey from Egg to Embryo

Conception: From Egg to Embryo:- This slideshow will illustrate the incredible process of conception, beginning with the moment a sperm fertilizes an egg.

Ovulation:- Each month, one of a woman's two ovaries releases a mature egg in a process known as ovulation. Ovulation occurs about two weeks after the start of a woman’s last menstrual period.

Moving Into the Fallopian Tube:- The released egg travels into the Fallopian tube, where it is fertilized by a single sperm.

The Sperm's Long Journey :- When a man ejaculates, 40 to 150 million sperm may be contained in the fluid. The sperm start swimming upstream in the women's reproductive tract toward the Fallopian tubes. The time it takes for sperm to reach an egg is very variable - some may reach their target in half an hour, while others may take days. Sperm can live for up to 48 to 72 hours. Of the millions of sperm, only a few hundred even come close to the egg.

Fertilization: Sperm Penetrates Egg:- The process of fertilization takes about 24 hours. Once a sperm has penetrated the egg, the egg surface changes, preventing entry of other sperm. Fertilization completes the genetic makeup of the baby, including whether it will be a girl or boy.

The Cells Start to Divide:- Once the egg is fertilized, a rapid process of division begins. The fertilized egg leaves the Fallopian tube and enters the uterus 3 to 4 days after fertilization. A tubal or ectopic pregnancy results in the rare cases in which the fertilized egg does not properly enter the uterus. An ectopic pregnancy poses serious health risks to the mother.

Implantation:- Implantation is the process by which the fertilized egg attaches to the endometrium (lining tissues of the uterus). The cells in the fertilized egg continue to divide.

Pregnancy Hormones:- A hormone called human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) is produced by the cells that will eventually form the placenta. It can be found in the mother's blood within about a week of conception and is detected in pregnancy tests done on blood or urine.

Fetal Development:- After implantation in the uterus, some of the cells form the placenta while others form the embryo. The heartbeat begins during the fifth week of gestation. At the eighth week the developing embryo is now called a fetus. The fetus at eight weeks is about ½ inch long and constantly growing.
