It is important to point out here that egg fertilization is not the same as embryo implantation.
Fertilization is the process where the sperm unites with the egg to form a zygote, which will begin its development and form the embryo. Subsequently, the embryo, now divided into several cells, will implant in the uterine cavity and start the pregnancy.
Therefore, fertilization does not cause any symptoms. The union of the egg and the sperm does not cause discomfort or pain. In contrast, embryo implantation can cause some symptoms, such as implantation bleeding.
