Ovulation is the process in the female reproductive cycle where an ovary releases a mature egg (ovum) into the fallopian tube, typically occurring around the midpoint of the menstrual cycle. This event is triggered by hormonal changes, particularly the surge in luteinizing hormone (LH). Ovulation is a key factor in fertility, as it creates the opportunity for the egg to be fertilized by sperm. After ovulation, the egg remains viable for about 12 to 24 hours, while sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for several days.
