Getting pregnant may seem like a rather mystical process. Once you learn the science and timing, it makes a bit more sense. Still, you may wonder how long it takes to actually conceive after having sex. The short answer is that the egg and sperm can meet within minutes to up to 12 hours after ejaculation.

Your kidneys go into overdrive during pregnancy because they are tasked with processing extra fluids due to blood volume increases. This means increased urination. Tiredness. You may feel fatigued in early pregnancy. Hormones, again, are at play here. In particular, the hormone progesterone can make you particularly exhausted. If you experience these symptoms or otherwise think you might be pregnant, it’s a good idea to take a home pregnancy test. When can you get a positive pregnancy test result? Home pregnancy tests look for human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) in your urine. This is produced after the egg implants, but not at detectable levels until 6 to 14 days after fertilization. Your most reliable results will be starting on the day of your missed period, since all cycles are unique. You can purchase a test at supermarkets, drugstores, or online. Follow all instructions and follow up with your doctor if you have a positive result or if you have a negative result but your period does not start. In some cases, you may want to go in and have a blood draw, which can detect lower levels of the pregnancy hormone hCG.

To recap, the following things need to happen to achieve pregnancy: An egg needs to release and get picked up by the fallopian tube. Sperm needs to be deposited before, during, or immediately after ovulation. The egg and sperm need to meet (fertilization) to create what eventually becomes a blastocyst. The blastocyst needs to implant itself in the uterine lining to become an embryo and continue growing into a fetus. Above all else, you can increase your chances of pregnancy each month by gaining a better understanding of the menstrual cycle and pinpointing your fertile window. You can have sex a million times, but if you’re not in the right part of your cycle, it won’t result in pregnancy. Sex as early as 5 days before ovulation can lead to conception, but the chances are highest with sex the day immediately before the egg is released. Some women on a 28-day cycle ovulate around day 14 after the start of their last period. For others, it’s not so predictable. Books like Taking Charge of Your Fertility can help you learn how to track your basal temperature or otherwise understand the signs your body may give, like increased cervical mucus, when ovulation may soon happen. You may also consider using ovulation predictor kits. These over-the-counter strips detect different hormones in the urine that indicate an egg will soon release. Don’t want to track too closely? Fertility experts recommend having sex two to three times each week throughout the month. That way, you’ll have a steady stock of fresh sperm. You may also try things like lying still for 15 minutes after sex and using sperm-friendly lubricants to help those swimmers get where they need to go.
