Menstruation is the shedding of tissue and blood from the lining of the womb that occurs at the beginning of menstrual cycle.

Menstrual cycle is the series of changes a woman's body goes through to prepare for a pregnancy.

Ovulation is a part of menstrual cycle when a mature egg is released from the ovary, pushed down the fallopian tube and is available to be fertilized.

If you have intercourse during ovulation you can get pregnant. So, fertilization means that sperm has gotten to and entered the mature egg.

Fertilization of the human egg cell usually occurs in what?

The actual fertilization usually occurs in the fallopian tube. Fertilization occurs within 12-24 hours after ovulation. Ovulation usually takes place 14 days after your menstruation starts. Ovulation can vary from woman to woman it can happen before day 14 and after; it doesn't always have to be on day 14. Sperm can live for up 6 days in a fertile environment meaning that you can get pregnant by having sex 6 days before ovulation and one day after. leaving a 7 or 8 day window for pregnancy/fertilization to occur.

Ovulation has to happen first before fertilization can take place. Otherwise, the egg would still be in the ovary and the sperm wouldn't be able to reach it.
