Every month there is only a small chance of getting pregnant. That is if you have intercourse or get inseminated during ovulation period. Ovulation is when a mature egg is released from the ovaries into the fallopian tube. This egg is now ready to be fertilized. The key is knowing when this occurs, to be able to get pregnant. Here are simple ways to determine when is the best time to get pregnant, or know when you are ovulating.
First most used method is by keeping track of your menstrual cycle. A cycle usually consist 29 days, some has 1 day less or one more. Day one of the cycle is the day you get your period. Ovulation is usually around the 14th day of the cycle. That means the day you get your period, count 14 days on your calendar and that is when you are most fertile. This is not always the most easiest technique as some people have irregular menstrual cycles.
You can also know your ovulation period by checking your basal temperature. It should be checked each morning before you get out of bed and before any type of activity. At the start of your menstrual cycle or when you have your period, your temperature will be lower and during ovulation it will rise about 0.4-0.8F.
Knowing when you are fertile can also be determined by checking your cervical mucus. When your period ends, there will be no vaginal mucus. During ovulation vaginal mucus is clear and slippery mucus, also known to many as the 'egg white' phase.
Checking the position of the cervix is great for knowing when your ovulation period. Just like basal temperature, it should be checked daily. You can check it at any time during the day, but its important to check it at the exact time every day. In the first phase of the cycle, the cervix will be in low position and before ovulation, cervix will be high, and almost unreachable with your fingers.
These are some methods to use when checking for your ovulation time or your fertilization period. They usually work better, after checking these and keeping track for a month or two, before trying to get pregnant. You can use one or use combination of all four methods.
With a journal tracking all these body changes, can improve your chances to conceive. If you know and recognize this changes then you will know when is the best time to get pregnant. You have the choice of using one of these methods, but using all, will increase your chances.
