When Are You More Likely To Conceive?
Having a mature sperm ready for the egg is the key to conception. A woman can only get pregnant during the ‘fertile window’ in the menstrual cycle. We’re talking about the fertile window. The ‘fertile window’ is the day an egg is released from the ovary (ovulation) and the five days beforehand. Your probability of getting pregnant is dramatically boosted if you have sex on the day of ovulation, or two days before that. Having sex during the six-day fertile window the five days that lead to ovulation and the day of ovulation is highly effective to get pregnant. The ‘fertile window’ depends on the length of the menstrual cycle, which varies among women. There are a few ways to work out when you’re ovulating.
Why are timings important?
There are apps on which you can do the count easily. An App called Clue – Period and Cycle Tracker.
Also on your phone, you can keep the track of your Periods.
Because eggs and sperm only live for a short time- Sperm can live inside the woman’s reproductive tract for three to five days. Eggs can only be fertilised for around 24 hours (one day) after being released from the ovary. Eggs and sperm need to come together at the right time for fertilisation to happen to create an embryo.
This is why the egg needs to be fertilized within this timeframe. Moreover, freshly ejaculated sperm cannot fertilize the egg until it undergoes capacitation.
How Long Will It Take You To Get Pregnant?
Some women get pregnant very quickly, in fact, 1 in 3 women who are having regular sex (every 2 to 3 days) around ovulation, will conceive within a month. Pregnancy doesn’t start the day you have sex it can take up to six days after sex for the sperm and egg to join and form a fertilized egg. Then, it can take three to four days for the fertilized egg to completely implant itself in the lining of the uterus. Pregnancy begins during implantation when the hormones needed to support pregnancy are released. The most common way people get pregnant is from penis-in-vagina sex. But if semen gets ON the vulva or near the vaginal opening, sperm cells can swim into the vagina and cause pregnancy, but this is way less common. If they are having regular unprotected sex; more than 8 out of 10 couples where the woman is aged under 40 will be pregnant by 1 year. However, age makes a difference. Starting at age 34 your ability to get pregnant starts to decline gradually. However, medication can really assist your fertility.
Calculating Ovulation
What is ovulation?
Ovulation is when a mature egg is released from the ovary. The egg then moves down the fallopian tube where it can be fertilised. If sperm is in the fallopian tube when the egg is released, there is a good possibility that the egg will be fertilised, developing an embryo, which can ripen into a baby.

The notion is that this makes it easier for the sperm to reach their destination. The upsuck theory – This hypothesis is that the contractions of the uterus help “suck up” the semen that gets deposited in the vagina, near the cervix.
