A member asked:
Can you be pregnant within 24 hours of having sex?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: The egg and the sperm need time to get together and then to travel as a blastosphere down to the uterus to implant.

Depends: What you mean by 'be pregnant.' if you have sex at ovulation time your egg can fertilize within 24 hours, so that could be 'yes.' if you mean implantation of embryo, positive pregnancy test, etc., then 'no' that's later.
