Triplets, of the type normally referred to as "fraternal triplets". This can also occur if two separate eggs split (normally fraternal quadruplets) , but only one of one of the pairs implants.

Which term describes the fertilized egg before implantation occurs?

The term for a fertilized egg before implantation is a zygote. A zygote is formed when a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell. It is a single cell with a complete set of chromosomes.


Does implantation or concepton happen first?

Conception takes place when the female's egg is fertilized by the male's sperm. The fertilized egg then travels down the fallopian tube to be implanted in the uterus. Therefore, conception happens before implantation.


What is the period between the fertilisation of the egg and the implantation of the embryo known as?

The period between the fertilisation of the egg and the implantation of the embryo is known as the pre-implantation period. During this time, the fertilized egg undergoes multiple cell divisions and forms a structure known as a blastocyst before implanting into the uterine lining.


For a few days the egg cell travels towards the pear shaped?

The egg cell travels towards the pear-shaped uterus where it may implant and develop into a pregnancy if fertilized by a sperm. This journey is known as the process of fertilization and implantation, which typically occurs in the fallopian tube before the fertilized egg makes its way to the uterus for implantation.


What happens between conception and implantation?

After conception, the fertilized egg begins to divide rapidly, forming a cluster of cells called a blastocyst. This blastocyst travels down the fallopian tube towards the uterus for about 5-7 days before implantation occurs. Implantation is when the blastocyst attaches to the lining of the uterus, where it will continue to grow and develop into an embryo.

Do all women bleed when the egg is fertilized?

No, they bleed during implantation. When the egg is fertilized, it happens in the space of the fallopian tube. In a sense, the body doesn't "know" there's a fertilized egg until implantation occurs. There are no signs of fertilization before implantation.

Can you cause a miscarriage before implantation?

No, a miscarriage cannot occur before implantation because a miscarriage refers to the loss of a pregnancy after implantation has taken place. Before implantation, the fertilized egg is still traveling down the fallopian tube and has not yet attached to the uterine lining. Therefore, any disruption at that stage would prevent implantation rather than result in a miscarriage.


What would the result be if two eggs were released at the same time and both were fertilized but before implanation one of them divided into two?

If two eggs were released at the same time, both were fertilized, and one later divided in two before all three were implanted, you would have triplets with two identical and one fraternal triplet.

Can you have hcg before implantation?

No, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is produced only after a fertilized egg implants into the uterine lining. This hormone is typically detectable in the body about six to ten days after conception, which corresponds to the timeline of implantation. Therefore, hCG levels cannot be present before implantation occurs.


Implantation bleeding on the same day of the period?

Yes-- it's possible. It happened to me. If you ovulated 6-12 days before your period was due and the egg was fertilized, you could have implantation (and bleeding) on the day of your period!


What color is implantation bleed?

Implantation bleed typically appears as light pink or brown in color. This is due to the older blood that is released when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterine lining. It usually occurs a few days before a missed period and is much lighter than a regular menstrual flow. If the bleeding is bright red or heavy, it may not be implantation bleeding and should be evaluated by a healthcare provider.

What is the nesting of a fertilized egg in the wall of the uterus?

A fertilized egg is a zygote for the first five days before becoming a blastocyst. It is during the first week after insemination that the zygote will attach to the uterine wall.


Do most pregnancies start out as twins?

No, most pregnancies do not start out as twins. When the ovaries release two eggs and both are fertilized then will twins be born (fraternal/nonidentical twins). Or a fertilized egg may divide before implantation resulting in identical twins.
