Choose your moment
Can the moment we choose to make love have an instance on our chances of getting pregnant? Yes! In fact, the closer intercourse takes place to ovulation, the better. We usually talk about the 14e day of the cycle, starting from the first day of the last menstrual period. If your menstrual cycle is not regular, or if you want to increase your chances, you can take your temperature. The best thing is to take advantage of the three days before and three days after ovulation, leaving a day between each sexual intercourse. In addition, sir should preserve himself before this key period, in order to have a higher sperm count.high.
Orgasm - good, but not necessary
While orgasm is always welcome, there is no evidence that it will promote fertility. Indeed, ovulation and orgasm have no connection; at least, none are scientifically proven. Enjoyment or not, an egg ready to be fertilized will be released every cycle.
That being said, some claim that the contractions caused by orgasm would allow more sperm to pass into the uterus. One thing is certain: orgasm does not harm fertilization!
Raise your legs
The big screen has shown us a thousand times young women raising their legs in the air, after the act. Should we go so far as to do a “handstand” to promote fertilization? No: but women who want to become pregnant are nevertheless advised to lie on their backs for a few minutes, to allow as many sperm as possible to pass. Some doctors also encourage women to put a cushion under the pelvis, or even to put their legs against the wall. Note, however, that none of these methods is scientifically proven.
Positions
Is there an ideal position to get pregnant? No: it is a myth. But, once again, we can take a chance and avoid having gravity against us. This means that it is a good omen to favor positions that will bring the sperm closest to the cervix.the uterus. Of course, sperm are really good swimmers who know how to move in all directions, since they are directed by chemical signals. But, hey, why not make it easy for them?
Any position where the woman is lying on her back, pelvis raised or not, is ideal. One thinks among others of the classic missionary position, which allows deep penetration and does not require acrobatics on the part of the partners. You can also slide a pillow under the buttocks, to lift the pelvis a little.
The split flower position is also favorable for fertilization: lying on her back, the woman must fold her legs over her stomach, until her knees are approaching the breasts, while the man, kneeling above her, penetrates her gently. Similarly, the reversed lotus position, which is often recommended for men with smaller penises, provides the ideal conditions for fertilization. Lying on her back, the woman spreads her thighs, grabs her ankles and raises her pelvis, as if she wanted to roll backwards. The angle of penetration then facilitates the descent of sperm towards the cervix.
Have fun
The most important thing is of course to have fun. Some couples, obsessed with the idea of procreation, tend to forget this simple little aspect. If making love turns into an obligation, even an obsession and stress, we quickly lose the tasteto do. So try, as much as possible, to keep the romantic atmospheres and the little touches, and try not to put pressure on yourself.
Still not working?
Some women are slower to become pregnant without this delay being considered abnormal.
Don't panic: it takes an average of 7 months for couples who want a child before successfully conceiving. In addition, it is advisable to wait one year of unsuccessful attempts before consulting. Of course, the older you get, the longer conception can take. In the meantime, enjoy your romantic time!
