Help Needed: I want to know which days this month are the best for conception.
Doctor's answer:
Couples should pay attention to the best time for conception, as it is generally easier to conceive during the woman's ovulation period. If a woman's menstrual cycle is 28 days, the menstrual period usually lasts 3-7 days, and the ovulation day is typically the 14th day. The lifespan of an egg after it is released is usually 1-2 days, while sperm can survive in the uterus for 2-3 days. However, the fertilization ability of sperm only lasts for 24 hours. Therefore, sexual intercourse within 2 days before and after ovulation is most likely to result in conception.Although the testicles can produce billions of sperm every day, it takes 5-7 days after ejaculation for sperm to mature and reach sufficient quantities. If sexual activity is too frequent, it can directly affect the quality of semen, sperm density, and sperm vitality. Additionally, prolonged congestion of the prostate can lead to non-bacterial prostatitis.
