A man ejaculates into a woman's vagina, he might release 5 ml of semen, which contains life-giving sperm. In one ejaculation, he might produce 40 to 50 million sperm. Sperm all want to reach the egg, a race of a lifetime.

In June 2019, a 20-year-old gay man witnessed a shocking event that led to his death. The man's wife had a healthy baby and a safe wife, but the man's death was due to the upsetting or shocking act of making love. The menstrual cycle, which begins with menstruation, is a process where a woman's body begins to make an egg, which matures and is released from the ovary. The egg then waits for a sperm, which can last between 16 and 32 hours. The luteal phase, when uterus walls thicken, prepares the woman for pregnancy. A woman can get pregnant at any stage during the menstruation cycle, but the most fertile time is during the ovulation part. Sperm can live inside the woman's body for up to seven days, waiting for her to ovulate.

The menstrual cycle, which begins at 12 and continues until 52, can cause hormonal changes, including fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone, which can cause moodiness and irritability. A girl may even ovulate without having her first period. The youngest person to get pregnant was a Peruvian girl named Lina Marcela Medina de Jurado, who gave birth in 1939 due to precocious puberty.

The process may take 45 minutes or twelve hours, and if the sperm is a hardcore tortoises, it may wait up to seven days. Once there, the sperm fuses with the egg, and they fall in love and become attached forever.

You might be wondering, what are the chances of you having sex one time and your partner or one

night stand becoming pregnant? The simple answer is it could happen that one time,

but studies have shown that there’s about a one in 20 chance for healthy young people

when they have sex. As we said, there’s a much higher chance when she is ovulating. Sperm in the sperm cycle, which can last up to seven days, are unable to reach the egg due to the presence of iron in the semen. The semen contains nutrients like lactic acid, magnesium, potassium, and fructose and glucose, which help sperm get to the egg and the woman's uterus muscles. It is estimated that only about two million sperm will reach the woman's cervix, the first checkpoint, and one million will reach the uterus, a tricky part called the Ice Fall. Only 10,000 make it to the top of the uterus, where they may experience hypoxia due to the altitude. The remaining 5,000 reach the utero-tubal junction, the Death Zone, where only 1,000 reach the Fallopian tube. Only 200 reach the egg, and only one sperm from the 200 gets to plant their flag.

So, the great adventurer, the winner of the race, the champ, has fused with the egg. This is called

fertilization. It’s when the real magic happens. The inner cells are the embryo, and the outer cells that

have burrowed into the wall are the placenta. They will work in tandem to make a complete

human that can survive in the outside world. The organs start to develop about three weeks

after fertilization. You’ve got the ectoderm that contributes to the nervous system, skin,

mouth, anus, and hair. n the body starts churning out many hormones to create

life. It’s thanks to these hormones that women can take pregnancy tests.

According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists and the

swallow. It’s around weeks 21 to 24 that the fetus is now what we call viable, meaning it

has a chance to survive in the outside world. On July 5, 2020, a woman in the US had the most

premature baby in recorded history. It was born after 21 weeks and 1 day (148 days). Weighing

just 14.8 ounces - just under one pound – he had a 1% chance of survival, but he beat the odds and,

as far as we can see, is alive and well today. Usually, it’s only around week 29 that the fetus

accumulates body fat, the stuff it will likely spend 80 years trying to lose. Its

bones get harder, it can respond to stimuli, like sound, and its lungs have matured in a

few more weeks. At about week 33 to 36, its head engages with the woman’s pelvic cavity.

This is sometimes called “baby dropping,” but the real term is lightening. There’s

no exact time limit for this. It might happen weeks before birth or even just hours before.

The baby starts kicking closer to the birth. If it could speak, it might be saying,

The placenta, a protective layer of the uterus, is attached to the uterine wall, making it difficult to pull it out. The husband, who witnesses the chaos, is not eating the placenta, which is cooked and considered good for them. Placenta soup is not necessary but won't harm the husband. Many men find childbirth horrific, with 5% of their male partners fainting during childbirth.

“Let me out of here. There’s not enough space.” If you’re wondering how it’s even alive in such a

confined space, it’s that wonderful stuff, the placenta, that provides nutrients and oxygen.

Ok, we’re almost ready for take-off. The baby has dropped. The woman’s cervix

has started to soften and dilate. She’s feeling contractions more often, meaning the muscles of

her uterus relax and tighten. This is how the little guy gets pushed out eventually.
