Is it better to have sex the day before ovulation or after ovulation?

Patient's question:

How fast does the growth rate of follicles increase daily? Is it better to have sex the day before ovulation or after ovulation?

Doctor's answer:

Hello:
Key points for follicle monitoring:
1. Changes in the endometrium: Measure the thickness of the endometrium, with the maximum thickness being about 0.8-1.0 cm.
2. Follicle size: Developing follicles are smaller than 1.0 cm.
Dominant follicles are between 1.0-1.8 cm.
Mature follicles are 1.8-2.6 cm.
Growth rate per day is about 1-2 mm/d.
Generally, coitus can be performed around 5 days before ovulation.
