Fertilization: Sperm Penetrates Egg. It takes about 24 hours for a sperm cell to fertilize an egg. When the sperm penetrates the egg, the surface of the egg changes so that no other sperm can enter.At the moment of fertilization, the baby's genetic makeup is complete, including whether it's a boy or girl.he sperm can live up to 48-72 hours. Only a few hundred will even come close to the egg, because of the many natural barriers that exist in a woman's body. It takes about 24 hours for a sperm cell to fertilize an egg. When the sperm penetrates the egg, the surface of the egg changes so that no other sperm can enter.
It takes sperm about 2 hours to swim to where your egg is. If there is no egg then they will hang out for about 72 hours before they die off. Once the egg and sperm meet then it takes another 4 - 10 days for your egg to get to your uterus an implant into you uterine wall.Once this happens your body starts to produce HcG hormones. These hormones are what the test read to see a positive and they double every 48 - 72 hours.therwise, the sperm can wait 2 or 3 (possibly 5) days in the uterus for the egg to be released; then it fertilizes it right away. The fertilized egg begins to dig into the uterine wall within a week-this sometimes causes implantation bleeding which looks like light spotting.
