Is Pregnancy Possible By Having Intercourse During Ovulation Period?
Question: Second Pregnancy. We had decided and proceeded for second kid about more than a month. We were expecting some good news by end of this month. But my spouse happens to continue with regular monthly cycle for this month as well. We are not really sure about this? How can this happen? What do we do know? How do we proceed further now? Are there any special advise that need to follow to ensure the expcted result atleast by coming month. Please advise.
Brief Answer:
Do have regular sex during fertile days.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
It is difficult to be so sure so as to conceive in a month. The chances of conception in every cycle are not more than 25-30% even if everything is alright.
Best days for conception are from day 10-16 of cycle counting the date of start of periods as day 1 of cycle in women with regular cycles.
It is recommended to have sex on alternate days during these days to have best results.
Lying down on your back a pillow beneath your buttocks is considered the best position.
Having sex at night just before sleeping is preferred because female tends to lie down for longer time without any activity and thus assisting in spermatogenesis ascent.
Wait for natural conception for three months and you can take the help of LH KIT to detect ovulation which are readily available in market.
And if it doesn't happen then visit your gynecologist and opt for follicular study to see for rupture of follicle and then time intercourse to achieve pregnancy.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
