Brief Answer:
mittelschmertz pain
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
It is not seen that ejaculate can initiate uterine contractions after 2 days , but yes can initiate contractions to allow orgasm under prostaglandin release in ejaculate during the act of sex. After 2 days if you are getting the lower abdominal cramps with nausea and mild dizziness then it is probably mittelschmertz indicating your ovulation time. This may be involved with mild spotting with 2 days called ovulation bleed and is normal to experience and not related to ejaculate or fertilisation as such.
Regards
