A member asked:
I read that a female can conceive even when she's not ovulating(no egg is available) how true is that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not generally true.: Conception requires sperm and an egg. Eggs are produced by ovulation so natural conception requires ovulation. It is possible to conceive with an implanted egg- this of course does not require "ovulation.".
