In fact, many people believe that having sex right after ovulation will most easily get pregnant.

3. How to calculate ovulation to conceive based on the menstrual cycle
Calculating ovulation to conceive is a popular and highly effective method. However, this method is almost only successful in women with stable, undisturbed menstrual cycles.
When calculating ovulation to conceive, you should track your menstrual cycle for a few months to determine when the egg is ripe and released. A normal menstrual cycle lasts from 28 to 30 days. However, the menstrual cycle is not always so regular. To track, you need to mark the start and end dates of your period. Ovulation will fall between the 8th and 20th day of the menstrual cycle. If you have sex around this time, you will be most likely to conceive.
4. Calculate the day of ovulation based on basal body temperature
If you want to calculate the date of ovulation to conceive, you can also rely on your body temperature. Depending on the specific time of the menstrual cycle, the amount of female hormones will vary. At that time, body temperature also changes. Women can use that to calculate ovulation to successfully conceive.
In the first half of the menstrual cycle, the hormone estrogen increases, so the body temperature remains at a normal level. In the second half of the cycle, ovulation occurs, causing the hormone progesterone to rise and basal body temperature to rise.
You should monitor and record the temperature of each day of the cycle for a few months for the most accurate results. However, calculating the date of ovulation to conceive based on basal body temperature is only an approximation. By fact, there are many factors that affect body temperature such as: health status, weather, diet...

5. Calculate the date of ovulation to conceive based on the condition of cervical mucus
In the early days of the menstrual cycle, the cervix tends to dilate so that menstrual blood can drain out easily. But on the days of ovulation, the cervix will contract and soften to allow sperm to penetrate deeper.
In addition, the condition of cervical mucus also increases, signaling the right time to conceive. In the last days of the cycle, the amount of mucus in the cervix will gradually decrease, thicken and become thicker. If you have sex at that time, the chances of pregnancy are very low.
