When treating infertile couples, we will emphasize that the timing and frequency of sexual intercourse are important. At this time, many couples will tell me that they also attach great importance to the ovulation period, and often use some ovulation test strips or even B-ultrasound to monitor ovulation in an attempt to increase the pregnancy rate. But this is not the best choice.

The average survival time of sperm in the female reproductive tract after being discharged from the body is: 0.5 to 2.5 hours in the vagina, 48 hours in the cervix; 24 hours in the uterus, and 48 hours in the fallopian tube; and an egg discharged from the ovary survives in the fallopian tube About 12 to 16 hours; fertilization occurs in or near the cumulus of the fallopian tube.

Although some chemokines stimulated by the egg after ovulation will accelerate the running speed of sperm, many chances of conception will definitely be lost if the sperm starts running again after ovulation.

So currently andrologists recommend that sperm start early, that is, have sex every two days a week before ovulation. This can make sperm reach the fallopian tube and join the egg in advance or on time. Studies have reported that this method of intercourse has a significantly higher pregnancy rate than intercourse after ovulation.

In addition, a peaceful mind also plays an important role in conception. Clinically, we often see some couples whose reproductive function tests are normal, but they are still unable to conceive.

Some of these patients have mental problems. Long-term anxiety and stress (including work, life and fertility) can affect male sexual function and semen quality, as well as female ovulation and egg function. Even anxiety and nervousness before or during sexual intercourse can cause a man to be unable to have an erection or have insufficient ejaculation, affecting semen quality, or affecting a woman's egg function, greatly reducing the probability of pregnancy.

So, don’t pay too much attention to the ovulation period. Unless you want to monitor ovulation function or find the ovulation pattern, generally you only need to have the concept of mid-menstrual ovulation. Excessive attention will increase anxiety and tension, which in turn will reduce the chance of conception.
