How long does implantation take? Starting from ovulation, fertilization takes place within 24 hours, this is the beginning of conception. After the egg (ovum) is fertilized, it travels down the fallopian tube and enters the uterus about 5 to 7 days later. Once there, it still takes about 1 to 3 days before it implants.
The sperm can stay in the womanâs body for up to 72 hours or three to five days. So if you had unprotected sex one or two days before ovulation or after it, you are at a risk of unwanted pregnancy. The egg, after release from the ovary is passed into the fallopian tube and needs to be fertilised within 24 hours.
