A member asked:

When they said ovulation is fertile and there is a delayed period,what does it mean? does it include pregnancy and missed period?

If menses is delayed by pregnancy a simple urine pregnancy test would be positive. Some normally regular women occasionally skip a cycle. Ovulation is just the point an egg is released to travel into position in the Fallopian tube. If an egg is in position when sperm is also present conception can occur.

Conception occurs within day or so of the sex. It takes about 3 weeks for the embryo to make enough HCG for a positive pregnancy test. Blood test may be done a day after a missed period. Home pregnancy tests should be done 4-5 days after the missed period. If the result is negative repeat the test in 4-5 days. Use first morning urine and follow instructions for the test carefully.
