according to its Office of Research on Women’s Health 🙃🔬Ovulation is the release of a mature female egg cell from an ovary which typically happens once during each menstrual cycle 🥚 The egg cell lives for up to 24 hours after being released. If it’s not fertilized, the egg cell dies and the menstrual cycle progresses to the next phase ✨ Follow the link in our bio to learn more about this important phase in the menstrual cycle and where it fits into the larger picture of planning or preventing pregnancy 🔗Natural Cycles takes sperm survival into account to work effectively at finding your fertile and non-fertile days 🏊⁠
⁠
In all mammals, including humans, male sperm cells play an essential role in reproduction, together with the female egg cell 🤝 A male sperm cell is equipped for swimming, with a streamlined head, body (also called mid-piece), and tail 🤿 Each sperm cell looks a little bit like a tadpole. If sperm is ejaculated into the vagina, it travels through the female reproductive tract, where it may fertilize a female egg cell (the other type of gamete) ✨ Even though there are millions of sperm in each ejaculation, only one single sperm cell can fertilize the egg 🎟️⁠
