In recent years, women prefer to plan the birth of a child, not trusting the case. Naturally, they are interested in what are the best days for conceiving a child? And most importantly, how to calculate favorable days for conception?
The best days for conception of a child: the ovulation calendar
Maintaining the calendar of ovulation will determine the best period for pregnancy. True, you can speak about accuracy only in the presence of a stable menstrual cycle. It is believed that the optimal period for conception is the maturation of the egg and five days before ovulation or after.
Maturation of the egg is in the middle of the menstrual cycle. But, even with regular menstruation, ovulation may shift slightly. If the cycle is 28 days, ovulation should occur on the 14th - 15th day. In this case, the maximum chance of conception is from 9 to 20 days. These days will be considered a period favorable for pregnancy.
Measurement of basal temperature
Determine the time of ovulation, and therefore, and what day will be the best for conception, will allow the measurement of basal temperature. The method is suitable for women in whom the menstrual cycle has remained stable for at least six months. Number the days of the menstrual cycle in the notebook and determine the middle - the moment of ovulation. Daily measure the temperature in the rectum. The method is based on the temperature difference between the first and second phases of the cycle. During the first phase, the basal temperature is slightly lower. Since the ovulation, progesterone is being intensively produced, which leads to an increase in the temperature by about half a degree. The highest temperature is observed at the time when it is better to conceive a child, that is, on the day of ovulation. A decrease in temperature means that days have come that are unfavorable for conception. Measurement should be carried out at the same time. Better early in the morning, without getting out of bed.
Analysis of cervical mucus
To calculate at what period you can get pregnant, analyze the mucous membrane of the cervix. To do this, use your fingers to determine if mucus is present or not. The first three days of the cycle of mucus are not present and the chance to become pregnant is insignificant. Then a thick mucus of white appears. By her condition determine when it is better to conceive a child. The peak of a favorable period is two days, during which the mucus becomes liquid and transparent. The period itself is the time from the first appearance of mucus to the fourth day after the peak.
Other methods that help to calculate favorable days for conception
After the end of menstruation in the female body, the level of estrogen rises. This leads to a significant increase in chloride content 2 to 3 days before ovulation in saliva. Therefore, upon drying, the saliva crystallizes. To notice changes in the process of drying out saliva, you need to experiment for several days,
At what period of pregnancy, you can determine quite simply - having bought in the pharmacy special tests. Equipped with two indicators in the form of strips, they will change color upon contact with urine or saliva and will accurately indicate on what days it is possible to conceive a child. The effect of the tests is based on increasing the level of luteinizing hormone, leading to ovulation of the egg. The best result is achieved by a combination of techniques.
