Does conception mean already pregnant?
No, conception and pregnancy are two distinct stages. Conception refers to the moment when a sperm fertilises an egg, creating a zygote. Pregnancy begins when the zygote implants itself in the lining of the uterus and starts developing into an embryo.
Therefore, conception marks the start of potential pregnancy, but pregnancy is officially established once implantation occurs.
