Does removal of all your ovaries stop your period?

Actually removal of all your ovaries does stop the period. Without any eggs present, there's no reason for the uterine lining to shed since it is caused by the eggs not being fertilized in time. No eggs in the first place, no need to shed the egg + uterine lining later.


Is it possible for you to have fertilization but no implantation of the fertilized egg?

It is possible for a fertilized egg not implant in the uterine lining, it could be due to stress, certain drugs or medications, or that the egg was not viable. This situation is very common, possibly happening to a third of fertilized eggs.


Where do the sperms and egg meet?

In humans, eggs are typically fertilized in the Fallopian tube. The fertilized egg begins to divide and continues down the tube and implants in the uterine lining. If it implants in the Fallopian tube, this is known as an ectopic pregnancy (bad). In a chicken also, the egg is fertilized in the first part of the hens oviduct.


Fertilized egg typically formed here?

A fertilized egg is formed in the uterine (fallopian) tubes.


Do chickens have periods?

No. Only a few mammals have what is termed menstruation or a "period", meaning a flow of ejected uterine lining and blood. Since chickens never eject their uterine lining, chickens do not menstruate. The egg contains a chicken ovum and yoke sack. If fertilized, the ovum will become a fetus, then a chick.


What happens before fertilization in a pig?

First the the oocytes (eggs) are produced by the ovaries and travel into the infundibulum to the oviduct where they reache the AIJ (Ampullary-Isthmic Junction) or the site of fertilization. In order to be fertilized they must meet the male gametes (sperm) which have arrived after copulation past the cervix in the uterus. The spem then travel up the uterine horns to the oviduct where they meet the oocytes in the AIJ. The fertilized eggs then travel to the uterine horns where they attach to the uterine wall.


Where do the sperm and the egg?

In humans, eggs are typically fertilized in the Fallopian tube. The fertilized egg begins to divide and continues down the tube and implants in the uterine lining. If it implants in the Fallopian tube, this is known as an ectopic pregnancy (bad). In a chicken also, the egg is fertilized in the first part of the hens oviduct.


Why does the fertilized eggs go and in plant itself?

Fertilized eggs implant themselves on the uterine lining to provide a place for the placenta to develope. The placenta attaches the baby to the mother via umbillical cord to supply nourishment, oxygen, and blood to the fetus. Occasionally (not very often) the fertilized egg will implant itself in the fallopian tube in which case is called an ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancies must be terminated due to the high risk of killing the mother as well as the fetus. If an egg doesnt implant it will be expelled with the uterine lining that sheds during a womans period.


Does egg implant assures pregnancy?

no pregnancies fail for many reasons. sometimes after eggs are fertilized they don't attach to the uterine wall, sometimes they do attach but develop an abnormality and the body aborts them, sometimes after the fertilized egg starts traveling down the fallopian tubes the fertilized egg prematurely attaches to the tubes and ectopic pregnancy develops (which leads to spontaneos abortions), sometimes they cant attach because of abnormalities in the uterine wall itself (like if a woman has endometriosis), sometimes trauma to the reproductive organs can cause damage to the embryo and that can cause the body to abort the child.
