Improving Success Rates of Natural Pregnancy

The best way of getting pregnant is to have intercourse at the right moment of your menstrual cycle. 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 the fertile period of a couple depends on your fertility level as well as your partner's fertility level. Only one egg (ovule) is released each cycle which can only survive for 1-2 days, compared to sperm which can survive on average for 60-120 hours in the female reproductive system. The short lifetime of the egg is why the fertile window only lasts for a maximum of 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.

This is why closely monitoring your ovulation (when the egg is released) is critical to achieving pregnancy, given that the chances of getting pregnant each menstrual cycle are very slim. The technology used in DuoFertility identifies the most fertile days of your menstrual cycle with an accuracy of 99%.

Moreover, DuoFertility will also confirm that ovulation has actually occurred, which can be immensely reassuring and useful for women who have irregular cycles.
