A member asked:
After ovulation one should wait how many days to be safe?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
3 to 5 days: Since the life span of a normal viable ovulated human egg is believed to be about 24 to 48 hours, by waiting 3 to 5 days after a known spontaneous ovulation, "one should be relatively safe".
