Answer 2

You need to start by keeping track of your complete cycle. The first day you start your period is day one of your cycle. Depending how long it is between periods usually determines when you ovulate.

For most women, if you count fourteen days back from the start of your menstrual period, that is when you ovulated. The time between ovulation and your period is your luteal phase. This is the time when the egg is released from your ovary, travels through the fallopian tube and into the uterus where it either gets fertilized by sperm and is implanted or dies off and your menstrual period starts and a new cycle begins.

You should have sex up to a week before ovulation and a few days afterward to increase your chances of becoming pregnant.

You should invest in Ovulation predictor kits or a Clear Blue Easy Fertility Monitor in order to truly get to know your cycle. The Clear Blue Easy monitor is really expensive, but is worth every penny. I bought the monitor to help me learn my cycles better and to let me know if I was ovulating. I was told by a doctor that he thought I had PCOS, because my symptoms were similar to hypothyroidism (which blood work confirmed I didn't have). I found out he was full of it because I in fact do ovulate and have VERY regular cycles. The monitor and Ovulation predictor kits will help you keep track and so will www.mymonthlycycles.com. It is a wonderful site to keep track of your menstrual cycle....I hope this helps and Good luck!

Answer 3

One of your ovaries expels an egg roughly every 28 days. This step is ovulation. The egg makes it way from the surface of the ovary to the end of the fallopian tube and works its way through the tube to uterus. The best time for conception to occur is while the egg is in the tube. If an unfertilized egg gets all the way to the uterus, sperm will have a much harder time finding it. During this time the lining of the uterus undergoes changes that make it favorable for implantation of a fertilized egg. If an egg does get fertilized and if it does succeed in implanting in the wall of the uterus then the baby has a good chance of developing to term. If the egg is not fertilized or fails to implant then the special lining in the uterus sloughs off and is expelled through the vagina. This is called menstruation or having your period (although the term period should refer to the entire cycle.) In the 28 day cycle, ovulation occurs about halfway between menstruations. A woman is most likely to get pregnant if she has sexual intercourse around the time of ovulation but there is no sure thing. Women have different periods and they may vary from cycle to cycle.

Answer 4

Nature has provided for procreation in all animals and humans. It has also provided for certain reflexes being generated in them to prompt them for copulation when she is ripe for fertilisation.

In humans we have made sex to be an act of pleasure and hence natural processes have taken the back seat. Ovulation takes place in women betwee 12-14 from the onset of menses. This is subject to the periods being regular and the cycle being 28 days. Allowing for a margin of error, first eight days r safe. Similarly eight days before the due date of menses are also safe for unprotected sex.

Answer 5

To get pregnant you must have sex on a day that your eggs are being released.

After the 3rd day from the day that menses started put a thermometer into your mouth and check your body temperature every morning before you start turning in bed. The best time is at about 4 a.m. Maintain a chart. You will find that on one day the body temperature drops from 1/2 degree to one degree. This is the day that your eggs are being released. If you want to get pregnant this is the day that you must have sex. Tell your husband to ejaculate on his inward thrust so that the sperms will shoot deep inside.

After having sex you must stay in bed for about 30 mins with your knees bent up with a pillow under your buttocks so that the sperms will not pour out - to enable them to travel up.

Get your husband to save his sperms in the testacles for at least 3 days before sex to enable them to mature well to do their job.

Answer 6

HI!. Ovulation usually occurs 14 to 15 days after the first day of your periods. If you are planning for pregnancy. Try to have intercourse during that days (ovulation time). Before that make sure you are take good folic acid vitamin tablets.You can predict your ovulation periods using the calculator here http://www.babycenter.com/calculators/ovulation/.
All the best.TC.

Answer 7

http://www.coolnurse.com/menstrual.htm

When you ovulate, an egg is released from your ovary into your fallopian tubes. If you are going to become preg, sperm meet the egg in the fallopian tube and travel down to the uterus and implant in the uterine wall.

If egg and sperm do not meet, the egg and the uterus lining will be sped (this is you period) after that, the lining thickens until ovulation happens again.
