Implantation is a biological process or medical procedure where an object or tissue is inserted or embedded into a part of the body. Most commonly, it refers to the attachment of a fertilized egg, or blastocyst, into the lining of the uterus during the early stages of pregnancy - a critical step in the process of reproduction. It can also refer to the process of placing medical devices, such as a pacemaker or an artificial joint, into the body during surgical procedures.

Implantation
In humans, implantation is the very early stage of pregnancy at which the embryo adheres to the wall of the uterus. At this stage of prenatal development, the embryo is a blastocyst. It is by this adhesion that the fetus receives oxygen and nutrients from the mother to be able to grow. In humans, implantation of a fertilized ovum is most likely to occur about 9 days after ovulation, ranging between 6 and 12 days.
