3. Measures to increase fertility
If the couple has not been pregnant for 1 year, the couple should have a preliminary gynecological examination in the wife and do the husband's semen analysis. While waiting for natural conception, the chances of getting pregnant can be increased by:
Timing of intercourse: Body temperature should be measured regularly. A woman can determine when she is ovulating and should have intercourse 1-2 days before, because sperm can live up to 72 hours after being ejaculated into the vagina. In addition, the increased amount of LH hormone is also a sign of ovulation for the couple to choose the right time to have sex; Frequency of intercourse: The frequency of intercourse should be varied to increase the chances of pregnancy. For example, in the past, the couple had intercourse sparingly, only 1-2 times a month, so the frequency should be increased. Conversely, if the couple has intercourse too often, once a day, the frequency should be reduced. Maintaining the right frequency of intercourse helps to improve the sperm count in each ejaculation, improving the chances of conception. Because it takes at least 24 hours for the sperm to recover from 300 million or more, if the date of intercourse coincides with the day of ovulation, the husband should avoid ejaculating from the previous 2 days; Intercourse position: The position of the man lying on top of and facing each other will create the most favorable conditions for conception. Before ejaculating, the wife should bend her knees in front of her chest, keep in this position for about 20 minutes after the man ejaculates or put a pillow under the buttocks to prevent semen from flowing out. The man should ejaculate deeply and keep the penis in the vagina for a few minutes. If there are signs of infertility and trying to conceive by dropping 1 year without pregnancy, couples should go to a specialized medical facility for a doctor's examination, diagnosis and timely intervention.
