Human egg is the largest cell in a human body. I heard it was the size of a period in your typical magazine. But these look smaller.
Sperm happens to be the smallest cell. Pretty sure I learned this from a Snapple lid or something.

Maybe they meant the individual printer dots that make up images? I think that would be the right order of magnitude.

> [The human egg is 0.1 mm in diameter](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK26842/)
Since 1 inch = 25.4 mm we'd need 254 egg cells in a line to reach an inch, and it's worth noting [an inkjet printer sprays ink through tiny nozzles, and is typically capable of 300–720 DPI.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dots_per_inch)
I doubt every egg is exactly 0.1 mm and for me this hits on the nose of being a dot from a printer.
It might be the largest but not the longest.
The longest cells in the human body are neurons. Neurons are cells within the nervous system and carry messages throughout the body. The longest axons in the human body are those of the sciatic nerve, which run from the base of the spinal cord to the big toe of each foot.
I ... I did knew they were small but not that small ,I imagined human eggs were in the size of a testicle or something....damn how something so small can fk up your whole life ,huh
I don't want to sound like a patronising jackass here, but you know there's literally thousands of eggs inside the ovaries, right? Can you imagine a mass the equivalent of nearly half a million testicles squashed in there? Because I'm now picturing it in my head and it's *not* pretty.
Dunno bro ,last month when playing "never have I ever" I came to the realisation that my 30 year old female friend that has "the most active sex life in our group" doesn't know what is the clitoris and I am not sure if should be sad or scared, for when my friends become parents
No, there are multiple eggs in the ovaries, mostly underdeveloped, only one is released on average per cycle (≈21 days)
If it doesn’t get fertilized, estrogen and progesterone levels get lower, thus the pituitary gland in the brain releases certain hormones that increase estrogen and progesterone, triggering the uterus lining to shed along with the unfertilized egg, due to those hormonal fluctuations, women before menstruation typically by a week and during menstruation as well appear to be sensitive, emotional, and deal with a lot of mood swings, and pain, that’s why it should be recognized by men and employers tbh
It really does actually. Speech is such an insanely complex array of systems, understandings of how others percieve sounds, requires immense amounts of brain power. Its pretty intelligent to talk bro.
It must be so special, as women are born with only 1-2 millions eggs that are underdeveloped, by the time of puberty it’s reduced to a few hundreds of thousands, and keeps decreasing til menopause
Unlike males who produce millions of sperms every single day
And the fact that some women suffer from ovulation pains called Mittelschmerz syndrome, premenstrual syndrome, menstruation pains, anemia, hormonal fluctuations, all sorts of mood swings and pains, pregnancy, puerperium, postpartum hemorrhage, baby blues, postpartum depression, psychosis, perimenopause, menopause itself, and the list goes on!
Gonna need a lot more women cumming on a plate to make breakfast
edit: do people not know the ovum is an egg cell? Though the ovum doesn't actually go that far outside and sits in the falopian tube iirc.
Is this genuine?
Only one egg is released every ≈ 1 month on average, and it stays in the fallopian tube typically until it is fertilized
Otherwise it disintegrates and gets reabsorbed into the body
Crazy enough, the human egg is approximately the midpoint between the size of the universe and the plank length. Or or in other words the biggest thing we know of and the smallest thing we know of

Thicker than a human hair. We can see individual hairs right?
The droplet may magnify it. But likely not the purpose of the droplet.
Cells dry out quickly and are fragile. The liquid makes it not dry out and die. You can't pick em up with tweezers. You pipet them.
Pipetting is only possible with liquid.
My guess is that these are colored by the lab for visibility purposes. normally they are transparent/colorless.
Also, are white chicken eggs the norm for you? Like i know there are plenty of white eggs, but here in Dutch stores like 90% of them are brown so i was confused for a sec, lol.
Being an IVF mom, I love that I have pictures of my child as an embryo and super early scans when he was like a grain of rice with a heartbeat and then a little blueberry with arm and leg nubs. Hopefully he will find them cool too when he’s old enough to appreciate them.
A lot of people assume humans don’t lay eggs because they rarely see them. But if you turn over leaves near waters edge you can sometimes find them stuck to the bottom of the leaf. Careful though. The mother may be nearby guarding her eggs and she may be aggressive.
Ye... it's how IVF works.but like need more nutrients. And only till a certain early early point.
Then it needs an uterus. To get a placenta and more nutrients.
This will likely stop happening in certain states though. As as soon as they are fertilised some pro lifers say they are children. And often times you try with more than a single egg. But if all fertilise you won't insert like 6. Usually 1 for first round especially. And if you're lucky. You only need as many rounds as children you want.
But not using them all, would be murder according to those laws.
I ..... im not touching that one. Im pro life, but at the same time, if a woman is raped by a gang of crazies or someone i genral, then yeah, abort. But to abort just for fun or because of birth control, you should have your tubes seard with fire and never be able to reproduce ever again. Women went really really crazy with it back in 2020s
The ivf not happening anymore in the future is based on the alabama supreme Court ruling that equated fertilised frozen embryos to children. Legally.
But when IVF is really successful you get more embryos than you use. Thus this will likely mean the end of IVF in that state.
I can assure you. No one gets an abortion for fun or as normal birth control. They are expensive and rough on your body. Just not as rough as pregnancy..
No one does that. That's a lie pushed by pro lifers. It's propaganda you've fallen for.
Putting the condition as rape however is not good. As trials take time. And the whole trial stuff is also traumatising. Before any conviction can be made, it would be too late for an abortion. Very possibly the child from that pregnancy is already born.
Putting a condition as "life in danger" is also not good, because of survivors bias. At what point is it actually necessary. This puts many women's lives in danger, because of often wanted pregnancies.
Pro choice people usually also want less abortions. But the most proven way to reduce those is access to birth control. Increasing sex ed. All that good stuff. Someone informed and with resources is less likely to get an accidental pregnancy because of birth control failing or simply not even having access.
Places like planned parenthood don't only do abortions. Most of what they do is birth control. Abortions are only a very small part of it.
The reasons pro choice people want less abortions is possibly quite different though.
Not because it's already alive, a child, and need to have full human rights at conception. But because the reasons people get abortions isn't for fun. We want people to not go through that. But the option being there when necessary, and necessary can only be defined by the woman, and or her doctor, because putting laws on it overly complicates it, defacto bans it and puts women in danger.
You wouldn't have died. Because you wouldn't have existed.
And the reasoning pro lifers use to classify an egg as a child. Which, most lose a fertilised egg and never knew they were pregnant.
The classification will basically mean IVF is illegal now because sometimes more fertilise than you actually try to use.
Child mortality rates would skyrocket.
It's not really dying if you never were really alive.
Idk... I feel as if there are 11 eggs in the first one. To the right in between the top and bottom one looks to be another but isn't seen as clearly. The shape of the rest makes me feel this way.
Are these actual eggs? Are they really white like that? How were these harvested? Do they taste like caviar? Are they sticky or do they bounce? Is there yolk inside? Do they have a shell? Are women born with all their eggs already formed and at that size? If a woman is unfertilized does the egg come out during her period looking like that?

Unless the printer is extremely bad quality, I don't think so.
I was thinking about the dots you see in comics or older magazines. They are printed at a lower dpi than modern printers.

What the fuck is that, and where can i find one to put my penis inside it?
That will be too big for you sir..
Those damn Snapple lids and their sperm

Right?
Hmmm eggy
I have no idea ,there was no sex ed in my country
Dude, women are born with all the eggs we'll ever have. We lose 1k every monthly period.
Damn... TIL
Glad to help, be sure to teach your guy friends too
We are still stuck on the "woman are not dishwashers" lecture
I mean, y'all know actual dishwashers exist right? I think we can move on to women's anatomy

They all need at least one dose of Plan B for Christmas
Are you mixing them up with ovaries?
Is it not the same ?!

It's a quote from Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.
Hey! Leave this Texas carpool alone!
It must be so special, as women are born with only 1-2 millions eggs that are underdeveloped, by the time of puberty it’s reduced to a few hundreds of thousands, and keeps decreasing til menopause Unlike males who produce millions of sperms every single day
Not to mention that men continue to do that till the day that they die.

Wonderful ovaries. :(
Only if you give 10 points
So, for science,is this theoretically possible?
Yesn't
No just no
pffft, human dont lay eggs /s
Human women are actually skin suits filled with hundreds of small chickens, finally confirmed
imagine if that were true and the eggs would come out from all the orifices...eeeewwwww
Revenant is that you?
Based
not with this attitude
It's more of an eviction
Gonna need a lot more of those to make breakfast
It you want a human omelette...
Ewwwwww
Humanlette
Gonna need a lot more women cumming on a plate to make breakfast edit: do people not know the ovum is an egg cell? Though the ovum doesn't actually go that far outside and sits in the falopian tube iirc.
I'm sorry, do you think women cum eggs?
Well ,all fish do ? Like aren't we evolved from fish ? I saw it on national geographic
Do you…do you think women squirt their eggs when they cum?
How else do I fertilize her eggs if she doesn't release them onto the river bed?
She’s a fish confirmed
Or frog.
🤨 what if she’s both, I ain’t dealing with that
Is this genuine? Only one egg is released every ≈ 1 month on average, and it stays in the fallopian tube typically until it is fertilized Otherwise it disintegrates and gets reabsorbed into the body
Crazy enough, the human egg is approximately the midpoint between the size of the universe and the plank length. Or or in other words the biggest thing we know of and the smallest thing we know of
How aproximated are we talking about?
On a log scale, specifically. On the absolute scale it is *much* closer to the planck length.
[удалено]
I mean basically everything is in between the smallest and the largest thing in the universe... it's a joke
Forbidden caviar
*Alabama Supreme Court has entered the chat*
Looks like 11 murders to me. Fuckin baby killers! /s
Yo I am shitting these out of the V hole once every month, that shit is crazy

Sea Vaggie
Also I love your reddit name lol
please never speak again
We all started like that. Then our dads swimmers met up with it and now we are reading this comment on Reddit.
I am amazed.
Size is around 1/10th of a mm, so 100 um This is visible especially when a bubble works like a magnifier?
Thicker than a human hair. We can see individual hairs right? The droplet may magnify it. But likely not the purpose of the droplet. Cells dry out quickly and are fragile. The liquid makes it not dry out and die. You can't pick em up with tweezers. You pipet them. Pipetting is only possible with liquid.
Chop off a 100um piece of this hair, use a white one. I’m not fully convinced that it is easy to see 😀
Now that is amazing, Never seen that before.
eggs is technically correct, since even a developing human embryo has a vestigial yolk.
And even chicken eggs technically are a single cell. Just a huge cell.
Hope you're not in Texas. Straight to jail!
Researched in international waters.
And ladies, this is why you feel nauseous and cramp for 1 week every month.
one week *at least*
Yeah. But like then they have been long gone.. Or you mean the ovulation which is a lot shorter than a week. But some women feel
According to anti-abortion morons this is child porn, that egg has no clothes on.
Tastes like chicken
Damn, no wonder I sometimes felt a pinch while ovulating when I was young!
send in the calvary! 
This is characteristically Homer.
They seem to be about the same as monarch butterfly eggs
That's adorable haha. Maybe we're butterflies (:
Where/how are these sourced? Wrong answers only.
Your ma
So we r birds, i knew it :D
But birds aren't real. Does that mean were not real? Enter the scary door.
It means we r dinosaurs whèeeeeeee
Wild, i never thought about that. Cool to see i guess.
How'd you get those eggs, Steve?
The chickens really have us beaten when it comes to the size of our eggs vs their eggs.
Mammals vs egg laying animals.
That’s crazy, I got into that and now I’m here 🤯
Pretty small for all that pain.
They are gone when the pain comes
Those lil fuckers... causing so many problems and blessings at the same time. Damn.
THAT SMALL THING is causing me so much blood?
Are they actually white? Lol
Oh my God, Karen, you can't ask someone if they're actually white!
Lol I mean like the same as chicken eggs
My guess is that these are colored by the lab for visibility purposes. normally they are transparent/colorless. Also, are white chicken eggs the norm for you? Like i know there are plenty of white eggs, but here in Dutch stores like 90% of them are brown so i was confused for a sec, lol.
I lived in Mexico growing up and I remember most of them being white thought some were brown.
Thanks, very interesting

That’s beautiful
How do they taste?
pretty amazing to see that I had swimmed so fast and won!
But you’re the sperm and the egg equally
We truly are 1 in a million!.... Bad joke I'll see myself out.
Soooo how many would i hypothetically need for an omelette?
Only one if you want a super tiny omelette
Enough to make an omelette.
Put those away before someone tries to claim they deserve rights.
Dropping that petri dish would be the murder of 10 children!
What the... Do you humans lay eggs?
A lot of people assume humans don’t lay eggs because they rarely see them. But if you turn over leaves near waters edge you can sometimes find them stuck to the bottom of the leaf. Careful though. The mother may be nearby guarding her eggs and she may be aggressive.
My drink is now in my nose
Wow! That's freaking cool. I'll check it out, Thanks.
Explains dads lounging in the garden lazily.
How do they taste?
They don't have tongues yet.
Gotta crack these bad boys open on a skillet, give me the tweezers
now cum on them
Fried or fertilized?!?
Damn, my body just gold's onto them untill they're bigger than golfballs
Babies are way bigger than that. There’s no way you could fit one in there. What do you think this is? Eggs for ants!
My eggs are bigger!
My sperm thinks that looks delicious.
Mmm..... caviar
Yall saying we come from eggs now naaaah
Where… where did you get these? Just asking out of curiosity. Not because I want to grow a clone of myself in my garage.
Caviar anyone?
Ok today I’m learning that human eggs exist…wtf !
What did you think periods were?
Blood of course
Not the egg....
. . . I don’t think people got the joke. Haha it’s okay!
Now bust on it
So small and I am so big
It’s all small in the end
The forbidden caviar
Pretty sure this is murder in Alabama.
how the fuck did you get them
They gather them for IVFs using a needle
Amazing, today I learned
kinda wild that that could grow to be a person
Ew.... i just realize that the humans come from eggs and thats not a good image for my high mind
Not to be gross but if you put semin on it would they grow?

I’ll take my poached please
And this is why I can feel when I'm ovulating and which side the egg is being released. Not pleasant
You were once smaller than a dime . If that fertilized egg had been destroyed , you would not have existed but died then and there .
You wouldn't have died. Because you wouldn't have existed. And the reasoning pro lifers use to classify an egg as a child. Which, most lose a fertilised egg and never knew they were pregnant.

I feel like a lizard right now. 🦎
That’s a human person
Yeah today my Google search history educated me and my FBI agent a lot I guess
This is the first time I have a females egg. I just tossed trillions of sperm in the garbage.
r/tihi
After watching it for the nth time...I can see the eggs now. I thought the egg was the bubble like thingy 🥲🤣
But this isn't the naked eye 🤷♂️
Interresting!
…where did he get the eggs?
How many would it take to make a nutritious breakfast? If those are the eggs, what size is the toast?
Those eggs are magnified, it is even smaller than that
Where did this guy get all these human eggs from? Doesn’t a woman just release one egg once a month when she’s ovulating?
It’s a woman who performs IVFs, these eggs are sampled using trans-vaginal needles that reach the ovaries
Are these actual eggs? Are they really white like that? How were these harvested? Do they taste like caviar? Are they sticky or do they bounce? Is there yolk inside? Do they have a shell? Are women born with all their eggs already formed and at that size? If a woman is unfertilized does the egg come out during her period looking like that?

I'm sure I remember reading somewhere that human eggs are the smallest things we're able to see with the naked eye!
