JAKARTA - When planning a pregnancy, sex will be more than just having fun. Behind it all, you must often think how many times you have sex to get pregnant?
In fact, there is no proven method of producing pregnancy. However, some changes to the timing and frequency of having sex may help increase your chances of getting pregnant.
Citing Amaltea Medical, Thursday, May 18, you can get pregnant at any time during your menstrual cycle, even if you are menstruating. This is one reason birth control methods such as the calendar method are not very reliable in preventing pregnancy.
While unprotected sex doesn't always lead to pregnancy, you can get pregnant even if you've only had sex once. However, if you don't have success in one sex, you may want to find out how many times you have to have sex in order to get pregnant.
A Fertstert study, said that fertility will decline with age. Actually, how many times you have sex to get pregnant depends on personal and partner preferences, and whether or not there are male infertility issues.
Experts recommend that you do not have sex more than once a day. This is because it can even lower the number of healthy sperm.
"That's one of the misconceptions that many people have. The biggest thing that isn't clear is how often couples need to have sex to get pregnant quickly," says Wendy Chang, MD, a reproductive endocrinologist at the Southern California Reproductive Center.
To find out how many times to have sex to get pregnant, try to have sex at least 3-4 times a week, throughout the cycle. There is a theory that sperm can help the development of the embryo.
This means that sex after ovulation and after actually getting pregnant, can help the pregnancy stay attached. If the sperm count is normal or healthy it is best to have sex every day to have fertile cervical mucus.
You and your partner can have a positive ovulation detection test, and you can have a positive saliva fern test. Sperm volume and concentration do drop with ejaculation frequency, but the Mayo Clinic notes that this drop is usually not a problem for healthy men.
Studies published in Science Daily also show that daily ejaculation can improve sperm quality and motility.
"If sperm is kept too long in the genital tract, oxidation can occur," explains Alan B. Copperman, MD, director of the division of reproductive endocrinology and infertility at Mount Sinai Hospital and medical director of the Reproductive Medicine Associates of New York.
If you've mapped your basal temperature, you'll be able to find the approximate day you ovulate each month. In this case, you would have to have sex for 3 days to answer the question of how many times you had intercourse in order to get pregnant, before expecting to ovulate and possibly on the day you expect to ovulate as well.
However, you should still have sex throughout the cycle just to keep the sperm quality in top condition. You should also try to make time to enjoy sex without being tied to a babysitting mission.
