Doctor's answer:
Hello; First, it is recommended that both partners abstain from sex for three to five days before ovulation and have intercourse during ovulation. Adopt the male-on-top position during intercourse. After intercourse, do not withdraw the penis hastily. Place a pillow under the woman's hips to prevent semen leakage, which can also increase the chances of conception. Excessive sexual frequency may also affect fertility. If you have had normal sexual activity for two years without contraception and have not become pregnant, consider the possibility of infertility. It is recommended that you and your partner go to the hospital for a comprehensive and systematic examination. Both partners should abstain from sex for three to five days. The man should have a semen analysis, and the woman should have tests for six sex hormones, ovarian function, and immunological tests, etc. to identify the cause of infertility and receive targeted treatment. Wishing you good health.
