For some of us, to get pregnant in a particular period seems like a complete puzzle. You may be planning for pregnancy but meeting with your partner for a specific part of the month or year. Otherwise, you may be trying to conceive without fruitful results. Questions regarding the best time to have sex or to conceive quickly might disturb you.

Here are some tips you need to know and follow to get pregnant faster. However, you must understand that these methods will not have the same result for everybody, as each of you is unique.

Stop your birth control.

First, the most crucial thing for conception is to stop birth control well in time. The return of fertility after discontinuing birth control depends upon the birth control method used. Fertility resumes within a month after stopping birth control pills but may take up to 3 months. With birth control implants, you may be able to conceive within one month, as with intrauterine device removal. If you had a birth control shot (medroxyprogesterone acetate), you have to wait longer. Fertility may return only after a period of 6 to 12 months.

Know about ovulation

Second, you must know a little about your biological clock and menstrual cycle. The menstrual cycle of a typical adult female lasts about 28 days. The cycle may be deemed to have started from the day of bleeding. The uterus prepares itself for conception from the start to about 14 days. Around the 14th day, ovulation occurs. Ovulation is the release of the egg from the ovary. The egg is fertilized by sperm inside the fallopian tube to form the baby.

In this way, the most fruitful time to have sex is around 3-4 days before and on the day of ovulation. The logic is that the egg is viable 12 to 24 hours after release; thus, sperm must be present in the fallopian tube.

To estimate the time of ovulation, you may try the following: –

Increased basal body temperature (BBT) during the day of ovulation. There is an increase in body temperature of about 1 degree Celsius. You measure your body temperature daily before getting up from bed. On the day of ovulation, the temperature will show a sudden rise after remaining flat during the first thirteen days of the cycle.
Vaginal discharge: Before ovulation, cervical mucus will increase, and its texture will change. It will become stretchy and slippery. You may notice vaginal discharge in your underwear occasionally.
Calendar method This will work if your cycle is regular, with an average duration of 28 days. Ovulation will occur on the 14th day.
The ovulation predictor test can predict ovulation more precisely than any of the above methods, and they detect hormone changes.

Stay in the bed for some time after sex

Sometimes, you feel about going to pee just after having intercourse. It is not advisable if you are trying to have a baby. You must lay in the bed for about 10 to 15 minutes in a resting position. There is no perfect intercourse position to get pregnant. Any sex position can result in pregnancy if there is the ejaculation of a significant amount of semen inside the vagina.

Stay relaxed

The tips to get pregnant faster include having enjoyable intercourse. Your partner must not feel unduly stressed, and you both must be completely relaxed.

Improve fertility

Both of your fertility is vital to forming babies. Both of you must stop smoking and taking alcohol and reduce the intake of caffeine to increase fertility. Zinc and multivitamin supplements can help to improve sperm health.
