Ovulation period generally refers to a certain period of time in the menstrual cycle when a woman's ovary releases an egg. If during this period, it meets with a man's sperm, successfully combines and implants in the uterus to form a fertilized egg. This is the first step of pregnancy. Having sexual intercourse during ovulation does not necessarily guarantee successful conception. So what are the chances of getting pregnant during ovulation? How can we increase the probability of pregnancy?
What are the chances of getting pregnant during ovulation
If you have sexual intercourse during ovulation without taking any contraceptive measures, the chances of getting pregnant are also relatively high, usually around 5%.
It is recommended that both men and women abstain from sexual activity for 3-5 days before ovulation. During ovulation, they should have sexual intercourse in a male up and female down position. After each sexual intercourse, they should not rush to pull out their penis. The woman should place a pillow under her buttocks to increase the chances of conception.
Methods to increase the probability of pregnancy
1. Accurately determine whether you are in the ovulation period.
You can identify it based on your own physiological changes. Some women may experience lower abdominal pain or pain similar to menstruation during ovulation when eggs are released from the ovaries. Before ovulation, the vagina secretes egg white like mucus.
2. Find ways to increase the quantity and improve the quality of sperm.
This is also an important factor in improving fertility. To increase the number of sperm, you can encourage your husband to wear loose underwear and pants, and let him take a cold shower instead of a hot one. Excessive smoking and drinking can also cause a decrease in sperm count and quality, so it is recommended that husbands drink less and smoke less. If possible, it is best to quit smoking and drinking.
During the preparation for pregnancy, it is important to relax and avoid excessive psychological pressure, as it can cause some difficulties in conception. In real life, the more eager one is to get pregnant, the longer they are unable to conceive. Those who didn't want children accidentally became pregnant. The above is an introduction to the probability of a single pregnancy during ovulation. Wishing you a successful conception soon.
