GENERAL INFORMATION
A regular and stable menstrual cycle of a woman is about 28
days. Approximately 14 days after the beginning of the last-,
and 15 days before the next menstrual period the rising blood
estrogen levels lead to ovulation.
The biological properties of egg cells only permit fertilization
within approximately 24 hours after ovulation.
Because the male sperm have a life span of up to 72 hours, in
general, a conception in a time frame of approximately 2 days
before and 1 day after the actual ovulation is possible.
