Can I get pregnant if I have sex three days before ovulation?

Women ovulate every month, which is a natural physiological response to human reproduction. If the egg is not fertilized, it will be discharged from the body and form menstruation. Therefore, women have menstrual periods and ovulation periods. Because of these periods, some people take advantage of the characteristics of these periods to conceive. Today I will tell you some common sense about having sex before ovulation.

Generally speaking, the ovaries of women of normal childbearing age release only one egg per month. The egg can survive for 1 to 2 days after being released, and the male's sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for 2 to 3 days. The fertilization ability is mostly within 24 hours after ovulation. After 2 to 3 days, the sperm loses the ability to combine with the egg. Therefore, the probability of pregnancy is highest if you have sexual intercourse 2 to 3 days before ovulation and 1 to 2 days after ovulation.

The chances of getting pregnant are higher if you have sex on the day of ovulation. Of course, the prerequisite is that your menstruation is relatively regular, so that the calculation of the ovulation period will be more accurate. It is generally recommended that the chances of getting pregnant are higher if you have sex on the day of ovulation, because the egg can survive in the body for 1-2 days after being released, and the sperm can survive in the body for 72 hours, so the chances of getting pregnant are higher if you have sex on the day of ovulation or the day before ovulation. It is recommended to abstain from sex for five days before ovulation in order to obtain high-quality sperm, which will greatly increase the chance of pregnancy during ovulation. In addition, folic acid should be supplemented in time before pregnancy and in the first three months of pregnancy to prevent fetal malformations and the possibility of miscarriage.

If you want to get pregnant, you can also try starting from the first day of ovulation, with the man on top and the woman on the bottom. Put a cushion or a small pillow of appropriate thickness under the woman's buttocks to raise her buttocks, so that the ejaculated semen can be concentrated on the vaginal vault. Continue to raise the buttocks and lie in bed for 20-30 minutes. At the same time, the woman should not urinate within half an hour after ejaculation to prevent the semen from flowing out, so that the cervix can fully contact with the semen, thereby increasing the probability of sperm entering the uterine cavity.

Pregnancy is not something that can be rushed. Some people are troubled by not being able to get pregnant for a long time, while others are troubled by not being able to use contraception, but these two types of people cannot complement each other. All we can do is let nature take its course. Excessive human intervention is not good for our bodies. In the end, we may not even be able to prevent pregnancy or get pregnant, and it may have the opposite effect.
