I know this is not considered to be a very long time, but it sure feels like it! :) For next month is it better to start having intercourse on days 10, 12, 14, & 16 of my cycle or to just wait until my ovulation test strip reads positive (which is usually always 14 for me) and save up the sperm for that day only? Please advise Thanks! :)

The ovulatory phase starts with a surge in the levels of luteinizing hormone and, to a lesser degree, follicle-stimulating hormone. Luteinizing hormone stimulates the dominant follicle to bulge from the surface of the ovary and finally rupture, releasing the egg, usually about 24 hours after the surge in luteinizing hormone begins. This is called ovulation.
About 12 to 24 hours after the egg is released, this surge can be detected by measuring the luteinizing hormone level in the urine.
So when the strip reads positive time for conception is running out. if you know its always day 14, go for it days 12 -16 so they are there waiting and also catch the egg if released a little later.
Good Luck

I track my ovulation at www.mymonthlycycles.com. It tells me which days I am fertile, more fertile, and most fertile. It also tells me my ovulation day. I read that you are not supposed to try everyday because it dilutes the sperm but it can survive for something like 7 days inside you. So I would try holding off for three or four days and then start on the 12th and 14th. If you wait until the 14th that only gives you like one shot so I would start on the 12th. Good Luck, I am also trying!!!

i understand the variety you experience. we've been attempting for sixteen months and no success yet. even although luckily we've a 4 twelve months old son thank God. yet i think of the terrific is another day, i know it truly is hard however the final man or woman who responded pronounced the swimmers might desire to be replenished and that's real. too plenty intercourse isn't valuable and the day you ovulate the semen will possibly no longer have as many sperm, and at that any stable ones. stable success to you besides mght!
