At present, young people are in a long-term environment of work and life pressure, and they are not very attentive to the issue of having a baby. When deciding to have a baby, it may be urgent, but people generally do not have much knowledge about conception and preparation for pregnancy unless they are in the medical field. Sometimes I have some doubts, such as why I haven't become pregnant after having sex?
Why haven't you become pregnant after having sex
The process of conception is that during sexual intercourse, the male ejaculates into the female's vagina, and the sperm swims towards the uterus by swinging its tail before entering the fallopian tubes. The semen ejaculated by men contains hundreds of millions of sperm each time, but the vast majority of sperm lose their vitality or die in the acidic environment of the vagina, and only a very small number of sperm can overcome numerous obstacles to reach the fallopian tubes. The factors that affect pregnancy are multifaceted.
What are the conditions for pregnancy
1. Men's testicles can produce normal sperm
The normal amount of semen ejaculated by an adult male is 2-6ml, and the number of sperm per milliliter of semen should be over 60 million. More than 60% of the sperm should be active, and abnormal sperm should be below 15% -20%. If the sperm does not meet the above standards, it is not easy for the female to conceive.
2. Women's ovaries can release healthy and mature eggs
Women with normal menstruation have a healthy and mature egg released every menstrual cycle, which gives them a chance to conceive. For women with ovarian insufficiency or irregular menstruation, it is difficult to conceive.
3. Women should have normal sexual activity before and after ovulation to provide opportunities for sperm and egg to meet and fertilize
Sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for 1-3 days, and after the egg is released, it can survive for about 1 day. Women ovulate about 14 days before their next menstrual cycle, and sexual intercourse within a few days before and after ovulation is possible for conception. Sexual intercourse during non ovulation period will not result in conception.
4. The reproductive tract must be unobstructed and unobstructed
The male vas deferens must be unobstructed for sperm to be expelled. The female reproductive tract must also be unobstructed, so that sperm entering the vagina during sexual intercourse can reach the fallopian tubes without obstruction and meet the egg for fertilization, and the fertilized egg can smoothly enter the uterine cavity.
For couples who are physically healthy and age appropriate, having a baby is not a difficult task. If you are in a hurry to successfully conceive, you can learn some knowledge about improving the success rate of conception. But if long-term pregnancy preparation is not successful, it is necessary to go to a professional hospital for examination and listen to the doctor's advice.
