Improving Success Rates of Natural Pregnancy

The best way of getting pregnant is to have intercourse when you are most fertile. Every cycle, your body prepares itself to accept a potential pregnancy, for which a number of conditions have to be satisfied. These conditions are only present during your fertile window, which lasts just a few days each menstrual cycle^?. This is why timing intercourse at the ideal moment is so important for getting pregnant.

Many healthy couples take about a year before they can get pregnant, mainly due to the fact that they are not timing intercourse at the best moment of the menstrual cycle.

A woman is only fertile for a few days each menstrual cycle. The length of your fertile period depends on your fertility level as well as your partner's fertility level. Only one egg^? is released each cycle which can only survive for 1-2 days. In comparison, sperm^? can survive on average for 3-5 days. The short lifetime of the egg is the reason why the fertile window only lasts for 4-5 days: the day of ovulation^? and the 2 days before and after it. Outside of these fertile days, the vaginal environment^? is hostile to sperm, which do not survive in the woman’s body.

DuoFertility displays your fertility for the next 6 days, giving you time to plan your romantic evenings and will also confirm that ovulation has actually occurred. This is immensely reassuring and useful for women who have irregular cycles.

Dr Chausiaux, fertility specialist explains that "given that the chances of getting pregnant each menstrual cycle are very slim, it is critical to closely monitor your ovulation to achieving pregnancy. Many couples do not realise that this can treble their chances of conception^? every month."
