Okay, here's the real deal - your best time to get pregnant is around the time you ovulate. Most people assume a day 14 ovulation for a 28 day cycle, but the fact is - you could ovulate almost any time! You can determine if you're ovulating and when by charting using the Fertility Awareness Method or as another person said you can use ovulation predictor kits, however they are expensive! About $25. bucks and you only get 5 or 7 strips. And with OPK's they can be deceiving.... lots of time our bodies gear up to ovulate, produce the lh surge that the opk's look for, but then not release an egg. Your body can do this many times before actually releasing an egg..... this could cause you to time sex too early. However, they MAY work for you. The best option in my opinion is getting Toni Weshlers book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" and chart. It's inexpensive and can be quite fun. It can also rule out certain conditions that a doc would test for if you go in for an fertility workup. That can save LOTS of money. The best reason though, is that it can tell you IF you're ovulating, WHEN you generally ovulate, and if your luteal phase (between ovulation and period) is long enough for implantation to occur......... Goodluck!

If you're trying to get pregnant, you want to have sex around 2 weeks after your period. Check out some over-the-counter ovulation tests and if you get a positive, have sex for the next 3 or 4 days in a row.

IF you are a teenager you shouldn't be asking this question! BUT if you are an adult then the answer to your question is to have sex before your period. NEVER during your period because you won't get pregnant until you finish your period and that just adds complications to your goal. My best advice is to not get stretched out and relax. GOOD LUCK

If you're "casually" trying... keep this in mind. If you have a 28 day period (from beginning to beginning) then you should ovulate two weeks after starting your period and be fertile for a day or two. Utilize those days obviously. If you're "seriously" trying, go to the pharmacy and buy an ovulation predictor kit (they were by the contraceptives at my drug store) and that will help tell you when its best. And in the the disgusting words of my mother, "when you want it the most, you're probably the most fertile."

menstraul cycle is about 28 days. Day 1 is first day of period; day 28 last day before next period. You ovulate (make an egg) about day 14. Egg lives 24 hours. Sperm live five days. So you're fertile from day 9 to day 15 of cycle. If make love day 12, 13, and 14 of cycle best chance. 90% of pregnancies occur when intercourse is in the 24hrs leading up to ovulation.

If you have a normal period ( 28 day cycle) than you can conceive normally in between the 8th day to the 16th day of your cycle. The first day of your cycle being the first day of your menses. If you pay attention to your vaginal discharge thru out the month you will notice around the 14th day eggwhite consistancey discahrge that is very fertile and shows you are ovulating.....hence ready to conceive. Good luck and have fun trying, remember practice makes baby!!

Actuall 2 weeks before your period you Ovulate, that is when the optimum for fertilization.If you have good schedule you will know 2 weeks before you periiod. You may feel slight cramping and your body temp will a little elevated. That the time conception takws place.

Afterwards will likely be more successful that directly prior to your menstrual cycle. Typically 1-2 weeks after your period is effective. Essentially, just have your husband or significant other bang you like a screen door in a hurricane for a month and you'll get what you want.

I think the egg drops a week before you get your period, so i would have sex regularly every day for 1 1/2 weeks before my period.
