If a woman releases more than one egg at an ovulation is it possible to have some eggs fertilised.?

Question

while other eggs are not fertilised? therefore will have her mensus alright the next time but can still be pregnant. Please help me out. Answers from gynacologist are also welcome.

Answer 1

If a woman releases more than one egg during ovulation it is absolutely possible (and statistically probable) that not all of the eggs would be fertilized and that, if any would be fertilized, it would be some (most likely one) of those eggs. If that occurs, the unfertilized eggs are simply reabsorbed into the body, and the woman is pregnant with a singleton (assuming the fertilization of one egg). Her pregnancy will interrupt the normal menstrual cycle, just as it would if pregnancy occurred after the release of "only" a single egg during ovulation -- in other words, she will not get her next period as per usual. (Pregnant is pregnant, and will disrupt the usual menstrual cycle, no matter how many eggs were released, and no matter how many eggs were, or were not, fertilized.)

One caveat: some women do experience some bleeding in pregnancy, even regular and periodic bleeding that, for a time, can appear to be a regular period. So it's possible to see some bleeding and think it's your period even though you are pregnant. Technically, however, such bleeding is *not* a period -- menstrual bleeding is the shedding of the uterine lining in the absence of pregnancy.

Hope this helps.

Answer 2

I'm slightly confused by what you're asking, but I'll attempt to give you a complete answer.

If a woman releases more than one egg when she ovulates (let's say 4), it is definitely possible for only 1 to be fertilized, only 2 to be fertilized, etc. not all of them will necessarily be fertilized.

If the other eggs aren't fertilized or even if the ones that are fertilized don't implant, then ALL 4 of the eggs will be washed out with her mensus. Meaning: she won't get pregnant the next month from a left over egg/fertilized egg from the previous month.

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

It is true that some women continue to have what looks like a period even while they're pregnant, however that is not caused by more than one egg being released or by ovulating during pregnancy. If you were to release two eggs while ovulating and were fertilized and it implanted, you would be as likely to have a period as if you only released one egg that was fertilized and implanted. What brings on your period is the fall in progesterone when the corpus luteum (the old follicle) stops releasing progesterone. If an egg is fertilized and implants it starts producing progesterone to prevent mensus from occuring because it needs the blood build up on the uterus wall to gain nurishment from. This is why your bbt will stay high if you're pregnant. I hope this answers your question.

Answer 4

Multiple ovulation is fairly common. If a woman releases 2 eggs and both fertilize and implant then she has twins. If only 1 egg fertilizes--very common--then she only has 1 baby. The dead egg is not what your period is. Your period is the lining of the uterus shedding due to the drop in progesterone and no implantation of a fertilized egg. If your ovaries release more than 1 egg but only 1 egg is fertilized then you still will NOT have a period. It simply is not possible to be pregnant and have a period, but it is very possible to be pregnant, have abnormal bleeding that the woman mistakes for her period.

Answer 5

Generally, only one egg at a time is released at ovulation. It does sometimes occur naturally to release more eggs. Plus, undergoing fertility treatment increases the chances of releasing more than one egg at a time. If more than one egg is released, but only one is fertilized, the unfertilized eggs are absorbed by your body and do not cause you to have a period. The uterine lining that you normally loose during your menstrual cycle is needed for the fertilized egg so it does not slough off.

Answer 6

There's no way to know how many eggs were released or therefore fertilized but it is very possible to be pregnant and still have what appears to be a period alothough it may be lighter or shorter than you normally would expect. It is believed that this often happens with women who have a shorter luteal phase.(time after ovulation til menses)

Answer 7

a number of the documents above is incorrect.......after one sperm fertilizes the female's egg......the the rest sperm do no longer die on the instant. Sperm can stay interior of a woman for as much as seventy two hours after deposited. they are no longer genetically coded to in basic terms "die" after one fertililzes an egg, so they'd concievably swim over and fertilize the different sneaky little eggs that are interior the area. And interior the case of two seperate eggs fertilized by ability of two seperate sperm......they're called fraternal twins. they do no longer would desire to look alike. in basic terms identicals are same. Fraternal are siblings yet no longer carbon copies of the different like identicals who're 2 persons who cut up from one fertilized egg.
