Patient's question:
My wife has had her IUD removed for three months and is preparing to have a second child. She had intercourse during her ovulation period but did not get pregnant. What should she do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, regarding the situation you described, pregnancy itself is a matter of chance. It is recommended to consider undergoing a comprehensive pre-pregnancy check-up, a gynecological ultrasound, and have it done two days before your menstrual period to check the thickness and integrity of the endometrium. During your menstrual period, you can have a hormone test.Guidance:
For pregnancy, the chances of conception are higher around the time of ovulation. You can use ovulation test strips or track your basal body temperature to determine this. Avoid fatigue, stress, getting cold and falling ill, or emotional tension, as these factors can affect your chances. Don’t be too anxious—wish you a speedy pregnancy.
