When is it easy to get pregnant?

For many young couples who are about to have children, the issue they are most concerned about is when is the easiest time to conceive. Generally speaking, the time from 5 pm to around 7 pm is the easiest time to get pregnant, because during this period the quantity and quality of sperm, as well as women's eggs are relatively good. If you have sex during this time, you can quickly increase women's chances of getting pregnant. So when is the best time to conceive?

When is it easy to get pregnant?

When is the best time to conceive? 5-7 pm is the best time of the day for conception because the quantity and quality of sperm reach their peak at this time. If sex is arranged during this time in conjunction with the ovulation period, a woman's chances of pregnancy will be greatly increased.

Best time to conceive

According to scientists' research on the probability of conception in a day, if you are planning to get pregnant, the best time to have sex is between 5 and 7 pm. The study found that both the quantity and quality of sperm vary greatly throughout the day, reaching a peak in the late afternoon, when women are most likely to conceive.

In order to study the time pattern of conception, Italian scientist Dr. Caniacci and his colleagues invited more than 50 men to participate in the experiment. Each man provided two samples, one extracted at 7:30 am and the other at 5:30 pm. The test found that 75% of the men had a particularly concentrated amount of semen extracted in the afternoon, and the proportion of rapid movement was also relatively large. Kaniaci also pointed out that scientific research has long found that hormones play a key role in influencing women's conception, which can make the ovulation period of most women concentrated between 5 and 7 pm. But how can you know when is your ovulation day? The following two methods are recommended for reference by expectant mothers:

1. Schedule calculation method: Generally speaking, the ovulation day of an expectant mother is 12-16 days (14 days on average) before the next menstrual period. The specific date can be calculated using the calendar extrapolation method. The main method is to calculate the "fertile period" and "unfertile period" in the current cycle based on the records of more than 12 menstrual cycles in the past. The formula is as follows, please refer to:

(1) The number of days in the shortest cycle in the past - 19 = the last day of the "infertile period" before ovulation. The next day is the first day of the "fertile period". (2) The longest cycle in the past - 10 = the last day of the "fertile period after ovulation". This way, the specific date of the "fertile period" can be calculated. Women with normal menstrual periods usually have a cycle of 28 days. Expectant mothers can calculate their schedule based on their menstrual patterns.

2. Basic body temperature measurement method: The body temperature method is a more accurate method to measure the ovulation day, because generally speaking, a woman's basal body temperature will suddenly drop on the day of ovulation, and the body temperature will rise by 0.3-0.5 degrees compared to the basal body temperature in the next few days. It is recommended that expectant mothers buy a thermometer and shake it to below 35℃ before going to bed every day. The measurement method is to measure the body temperature immediately after waking up every day (after 8 hours of sleep) without doing any exercise. Because any movement may increase the body temperature and cause errors, the measurement must be completed without exercise, and it should last for at least 14 days. It is best to keep measuring and record it and draw a graph to grasp the pattern of rising and falling body temperature and determine your ovulation day.

Best age for conception

Experts remind you not to miss the best childbearing age when getting pregnant. The best childbearing age for humans is around 25 years old, and it is best not to exceed 28 years old. As people age, their fertility continues to decline. In addition, if pregnancy occurs too late, the quality of the eggs will decrease and the chance of embryo malformations will increase. At the same time, it is not conducive to timely detection of problems, thus increasing the difficulty of treatment.

The research results of French geneticist Maurice in 1989 showed that the offspring born to men aged 30-35 are the best. A man's sperm quality reaches its peak at the age of 30 and then maintains high quality for 5 years. Physiologists generally agree that the best childbearing age for women is between 23 and 28 years old. During this period, women's whole body development is fully mature and their eggs are of high quality. If they become pregnant and give birth, they will have fewer complications, lower risks of delivery, good fetal growth and development, and the incidence of premature birth, deformities and dementia is the lowest.

Best season for conception

Experts believe that the best season for conception is late spring or early autumn, that is, March to April or September to October is more ideal. Pregnancy in late spring, from March to April, is the season of spring flowers blooming. The climate is mild and suitable at this time, and rubella virus infection and respiratory infectious diseases are less prevalent. The diet and daily life of pregnant women are easy to adjust, so that the fetus has a stable development environment in the initial stage, which is most beneficial for preventing malformations. Plenty of sunshine is another benefit of spring pregnancy, providing good sunshine conditions throughout the pregnancy. The ergosterol in the skin of pregnant women can be converted into vitamin D under the ultraviolet rays in the sun, which promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorus and is beneficial to the growth and development of the fetus's bones. In addition, sunlight shining on the skin can promote blood circulation in the human body, kill bacteria and disinfect, which is also very beneficial to the health of pregnant women. In early autumn, September to October is also a good time to conceive. Since September and October are the months of autumn with warm and comfortable weather, sleep and appetite are not affected. It is also the golden season for fruits, which is very beneficial for nutritional supplementation for pregnant women and fetal brain development. The expected delivery date for pregnant women is in late spring and early summer, when the climate is mild, which is conducive to the mother's physical recovery and promotes milk secretion. The child's clothing gradually decreases, making care more convenient. In addition, at the turn of spring and summer, there is plenty of sunlight, and babies can have good lighting conditions, which is beneficial to the calcification of bones for their growth and development, and they are less likely to suffer from rickets. When winter comes, babies have gradually grown up and can avoid the peak of intestinal infectious diseases. The first three months of pregnancy is the critical period for the differentiation and formation of important organs of the fetus, such as the heart, brain, liver, and kidneys. If the early pregnancy occurs in winter, especially in the north, the indoor air is not circulated, the indoor air pollution is serious, and the pregnant woman spends less time outdoors. Therefore, the early pregnancy is more affected by air pollution, and the relative risk of the fetus being a defective baby is significantly higher than in other seasons.

After reading the detailed answer to the question of when it is easy to conceive, I believe that you all have a general understanding of this issue. Experts tell us that the best age for conception is around 25 years old, and the best seasons are spring and autumn. In addition, conception can be achieved quickly by combining the female ovulation period and the male's sperm quality period. I wish you all have a baby of your own soon!
