How many days after menstruation is it easy to get pregnant

Nowadays, many couples are preparing for pregnancy and also taking contraceptive measures, so everyone needs to understand the safe period and the days when pregnancy is most likely to occur, so that they can avoid them better during sexual intercourse. The days when pregnancy is most likely to occur are the ovulation period, so it is necessary to understand how to calculate the ovulation period, and you can use ovulation test strips, observe leucorrhea, check body temperature, etc.

Best time to conceive

When is the best time to conceive? Women are most likely to get pregnant during ovulation. Having regular sex during the ovulation period increases the chances of pregnancy. If you want to know when it is easiest to conceive, you must first understand the time of ovulation. Here are four reference methods to predict ovulation.

1. Schedule calculation method

Generally speaking, a woman's menstrual cycle is 21-35 days (28 days on average), and ovulation occurs 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 and infertile periods in the current cycle based on the records of more than 12 previous menstrual cycles. The formula is as follows:

(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 you can calculate the exact date of your fertile period.

2. Basal body temperature measurement method

The body temperature method is a relatively 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.

Women who are planning to get pregnant can buy a thermometer, shake it to below 35℃ before going to bed every day, and measure their temperature immediately after waking up (after 8 hours of sleep) without doing any exercise. Any movement may increase the body temperature and cause errors, so the measurement must be completed without exercise, for at least 14 days. It is best to keep measuring and record it and draw a graph to understand the pattern of rising and falling body temperature and determine your ovulation day.

3. Ovulation test paper method

The luteinizing hormone (LH) in women's urine will reach a peak level 24-48 hours before ovulation. Using ovulation test strips can more accurately detect the peak level of LH. After starting the test, you should test regularly every day. When the color is about to reach the peak, you should test every 12 hours until the LH peak is detected.

4. Leucorrhea observation method

During a menstrual cycle, the nature of leucorrhea changes periodically. Generally speaking, leucorrhea is drier, thicker and less in quantity. During ovulation, the leucorrhea will become clear and transparent, like egg white, with a high degree of stringiness. This is because higher concentrations of estrogen are produced during ovulation, which acts on the columnar epithelial cells at the cervical opening, causing them to secrete a large amount of leucorrhea.
