this. it was very courageous of Dexter. he's just trying to prove to her (still) that he really does like her in that way.

many people misunderstand him, and they can think what they like but i think he's lovely

people are judging him way too much on his past, and not knowing the true reasons behind it all

Each ovary only produces eggs on alternate months, so the good ovary would only produce eggs every two months.

I can't believe he said that!That is more creepy than anything Callum ever said or did!

[smeagol]

he said cause she doesn't see him in that way. the same reason why he said int he diary room dont need to have sex lol

funny thing to say as i.e you dont have to sleep with me. dont think he meant charlies problem or anything else

Got a bit of a biology lesson going in this thread.

They can't say you don't learn anything on here now....


1 quick question cos I'm interested to know. Do you girls make eggs as you go along or are you born with the amount you get?

We girls are born with the amount we get which is why as ladies get older they have problems conceiving as the ovaries start to deteriorate.

Ah ok I see thanks.

[AnnieK]

It's also possible to produce more than one egg (fraternal twins) plus there are drugs that can make you produce more. (During IVF the drugs can make you produce up to 30ish).

What do you mean by 'produce'? Is that like releasing them from the ovary?

I'm sorry if I'm a bit thick on this subject I want to learn honest.

Yeah, they mature and grow then are released, usually only one per month

Ah right yeh that makes sense. What I don't get though is why are there 2 ovaries? Cos are they those things at the top like at the end next to the Fallopian (sp?) tubes? Do they take it in turns or something? Is it possible for both to release at the same time?

[Kris]

I haven't read all three pages of comments so maybe someone has already brought this up...

He said that, I believe because of the other comment when he said he would happily marry her and never have sex (since she doesn't see him that way) because he loves her that much.

Yep, absolutely 1000 times creepier then anything Callum ever did. I honestly think everything that was shown yesterday was completely for the cameras and votes...a fine load of crap.

They don't take it in turns really, one ovary can release several times in a row. It depends which one has te maturest egg to release. It is possible they will both release in the same month but it doesn't happen that often

Ok just one more question and ill stop cos your not here to be my biology teacher although I appreciate it!

If they do both release and a guy does the y'know can a sperm penetrate both eggs and what happens with that?

Yep it could happen and they would be fraternal (non identical twins) and in essence it can happen on different days. Eggs are only viable for fertilisation for 24 hours but sperm are viable for longer (up to 72 hours) so if two eggs are released 48 hours apart they could theoretically both fertilise and implant.

Women generally only produce one egg each cycle. Period.

Jesus, that's a whole load more questions right there. This is actually quite an interesting subject, took me till I'm 24 to find it so but better late than never right

Anyway I won't burden you anymore thanks a lot for your help and answers, you women still confuse the sh*t out of me but I understand a little more now.

Odd,odd odd ....anybody saying they would marry somebody even if that other person did not fancy them.

Obviously making it easier for him to sell his heartbreak story when he gets out.


Sleazy slime ball. Definitely the biggest creep this year in fact possibly of any year.

Actually no.

Girls are not born with eggs per se but follicles. Once they reach menstruation they release thousands of these and only one will actually mature into an egg.

Older woman release more of these which can result in more than one ovary being created, which is why it is pretty common for older woman (35+) to fall pregnant with twins. (Non-identical twins btw).

So older woman are more likely to create 2 eggs at a time, without fertility treatment, than just the one when they are younger.

Well said!

[Kazanne]

I have one ovary,but have 3 kids so I must be lucky.

[CaudleHalbard]

I think Dexter has merely misunderstood the situation.

Charlie seemed to find the artificial insemination comment very funny.

[Twildoo]

What chairlie has, well what it sounds like to me is Endometriosis. And you can have kids....I have it....I have also had a massive cyst and my ovary removed...you just loose about 30% of chance of getting pregnant....you just have to plan it right. Thants what the Doctors told me!
