fertile window?

Question

Lol I just want an understanding you can get pregnant anytime during your fertile window not when you're just ovulating correct?

Answer

Your egg lives for 24 hrs. So as long as you have viable sperm in you for those 24hrs (ovulation) you can get pregnant. Your fertile window is an educated guesstimate of when you will ovulate.

Answer

It's the combination of how long sperm can live (3-5 days), the lifespan of the egg (24h), and not usually knowing exactly when ovulation occurs for most women (assuming you're not using ovulation predictor strips) that usually gives a week of possibly fertile time every cycle.

Answer

Correct. Sperm can live for up to 5days.
