Good to know
Are you starting your fasting cycle? Of course, you have many questions. You’ll find the answers in our guide. In the last section, we’ll explain how cycles work, when you ovulate, and what your fertile days are when considering your fasting cycle.
During ovulation, the egg cell moves from the ovary to the fallopian tube, where it awaits sperm. During intercourse, sperm enter the cervix from the vagina. Guided by cervical mucus, they travel to the uterus and then through the uterus and the entire fallopian tube. Out of the tens of millions of sperm contained in a single ejaculation, only about 100–200 sperm reach the egg cell. However, only one sperm successfully penetrates the egg cell! At this moment, the egg cell becomes impermeable to further sperm. After several hours, the genetic materials of the sperm and the egg cell combine, forming an embryo with a completely new, unique genotype. The embryo begins to divide, creating more cells while simultaneously moving towards the uterine cavity. Around 5–6 days after fertilization, the embryo implants itself in the uterine cavity, where it will continue to grow and develop.

W trakcie owulacji komórka jajowa przemieszcza się z jajnika do jajowodu i tam czeka na plemniki. W momencie współżycia plemniki dostają się z pochwy do szyjki macicy. Dzięki śluzowi przemieszczają się do macicy, a następnie przechodzą drogę przez macicę i cały jajowód. Z kilkudziesięciu milionów plemników zawartych w pojedynczej porcji nasienia, do komórki jajowej dociera tylko ok. 100–200 plemników. Ale tylko jeden plemnik przedostaje się do środka komórki jajowej! W tym momencie komórka jajowa staje się nieprzenikliwa dla kolejnych plemników. Po kilku godzinach materiały genetyczne plemnika i komórki jajowej łączą się i powstaje zarodek o zupełnie nowym, wyjątkowym genotypie. Zarodek zaczyna się dzielić, tworząc kolejne komórki, jednocześnie przemieszcza się w kierunku jamy macicy. Po ok. 5–6 dniach od zapłodnienia dochodzi do zagnieżdżenia zarodka w jamie macicy, gdzie będzie dalej rósł i rozwijał się.
