In each monthly cycle, healthy couples who do not take contraceptives usually have a 25% to 30% chance of getting pregnant, although this will vary from case to case, especially in relation to their age. The percentage takes into account that you can only conceive before and after the ovulation period-there is a small window each month when the egg is viable (between 12 and 24 hours) and is open for fertilization.
So, consider that the time that sperm can survive to fertilize the egg is much longer than the time the egg is willing to stay, between three and six days. This means that even if you have sex a few days before ovulation, when the egg appears before it enters the fallopian tube, there may still be a large number of sperm around to welcome the egg. Remember: you only need one sperm to give birth. Of course, sex on the day of ovulation is ideal, because the window tends to close after that until the next cycle.
Therefore, when the goal is pregnancy, recognizing the signs of ovulation is key. What is ovulation? Ovulation is the release of a mature egg from each ovary, which occurs every month. A woman is most easily conceived before and after ovulation. When does she ovulate? Ovulation usually occurs in the middle of your menstrual cycle, or from the first day of the menstrual cycle to the first day of the menstrual cycle, an average of 28 days around the 14th day of the cycle. However, as with all things related to pregnancy, the range of normal conditions here is wide, the cycle can last from 23 to 35 days, and even your own cycle and ovulation time may be slightly different from month to month.
