Signs of ovulation and conception: briefly about the main

It is useful for each girl and woman to know how to determine the signs of ovulation and conception. This will not only help bring the moment of pregnancy closer, but will also allow you to better understand your body. Signs of ovulation and conception manifest themselves in different ways, they can be false and reliable. Let's look at everything in order.

Ovulation is the rupture of the dominant follicle and the release of the ovum from the ovary. Conception is possible with sexual relations five days before and one day after. This is due to the fact that spermatozoa can live in the female environment for up to six days, but the life of the egg lasts only 24-36 hours. Those couples who want to get pregnant in the very near future, it is necessary to calculate the days of ovulation. Signs of the onset of the fertility period may be as follows:

• Drawing pains in the lower abdomen, in the region of the ovary, in which the dominant follicle ripens.
• The change in the type of cervical fluid - the discharge becomes more rare and resemble an egg white, transparent and stretching.
• The sexual desire increases.

All these are indirect signs of ovulation and conception. A real picture can only be provided by an ultrasound examination. During ultrasound, the doctor will tell you whether there was a rupture of the follicle, based on the presence of a yellow body in the ovary and fluid in the anterior space. For the convenience of calculating fertile days, doctors also recommend using tests to determine ovulation. Their action is to determine the day of increasing the hormone LH in the blood of a woman. Luteinizing hormone plays a primary role in the onset of ovulation. It rises significantly 24-48 hours before it, which is indicated by a bright test strip on the test.

In order for the conception to occur, the ovum that leaves the ovary must be fertilized by the sperm. They are found in the mother's fallopian tube, and then, with a successful merger, the already fertilized ovum descends into the uterus and attaches to its walls. This is called conception. The cell, implanted in the endometrium, begins to divide and grow actively, thus releasing the hormone of pregnancy hCG. In a few days you can feel the first signs of conception:

• Increased irritability, mood swings, drowsiness, high fatigue.
• Nausea in the morning, a reaction to smells, a change in taste preferences.
• Breaking of the mammary glands, increased sensitivity of the nipples, their darkening, possible the allocation of colostrum.
• Frequent urination, sensation of fullness of the lower abdomen.
• Absence of menstrual bleeding.

Naturally, all these signs of ovulation and conception may be before the onset of menstruation. Therefore, in order to be accurately confident in pregnancy, it is necessary to make a test or donate blood to the hormone HCG. It is his level that will reliably confirm or disprove the pregnancy, because at a short notice there will not be any information about the gynecologist, or even the ultrasound. Be healthy!
