How to increase my chances of getting pregnant
I am suspicious of ideas
- The sexual position is not ideal: No need to stop making love in one position because you have heard it was more conducive to procreation is a myth! Experts recommend, however, the positions that will bring the sperm as close to the cervix, that is to say the missionary position, the positions where the woman is on the back or side, and greyhound. The positions where the woman is the man, however, are avoided.
- The female orgasm has nothing to do with pregnancy and ovulation orgasm are completely independent, so you do not enjoy forced to procreate.
- The legs in the air after the love is useless: no need to bend you painfully in the position of pear after love, it would have no impact: the sperm does not flow into the uterus as in a funnel, but crosses the neck guided by chemical signals. However, you can stay on his back about ten minutes before getting up, so give them a chance to as many people to move.
I’m not afraid to consult a specialist
If you can not procreate, it may simply be due to any pathology. It should then go see a specialist. Discomfort during menstruation, pain during intercourse, backache, diarrhea or constipation are all symptoms you should worry.
