Answer
Hi, every menstrual cycle a woman's body releases 1 egg (sometimes 2 eggs). After ovulation, the egg can only live for 12 to 24 hours. If the egg does not meet the sperm to fertilize, the egg will stop developing, degenerate and form a menstrual phenomenon.
In the case of intercourse after ovulation that is at least 1 day, ie more than 24 hours, you are less likely to conceive, but it is not completely confirmed that you will not be able to conceive. Because there are some cases of late ovulation that you do not know.
Ovulation time is only accurate when the menstrual cycle is regular. In addition, a normal menstrual cycle will last from 28-30 days, the day of ovulation will fall between the 8th and 20th day of the menstrual cycle. You can refer to the article: Great tips to calculate ovulation to help couples easily conceive written by Doctor Nguyen Thi Minh Tuyet - Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology - Vinmec Central Park International General Hospital, including the following contents: on how to calculate the day of ovulation, the body signs of ovulation and the notes to quickly conceive. Hopefully, the above useful information will help you have more knowledge about reproductive care for yourself.
