Top Ten Tried And Tested Ways To Get Pregnant Naturally

Natural methods are best when it comes to fertility treatment. If you have been trying to conceive unsuccessfully, follow these ten tips that have been proven in solving male and female fertility issues.

Predicting Your Own Ovulation (For Her)

The key to improving fertility is to learn how to predict your own ovulation cycle. You naturally improve your chances of getting pregnant when you have intercourse near your ovulation period. For example, ovulation generally takes place between the 12th and 18th days in a 28-day cycle. This is the time that you are most fertile and most likely to get pregnant should you desire it. Thus the best time to have intercourse is between days 10 to 18 of your menstrual cycle. One way to determine whether or not you are ovulating is to use a basal body temperature (BBT) thermometer. We will cover this in another article.

Look Out For Other Signs Of Ovulation (For Her)

Predicting your own ovulation is not enough – you must also check for other signs of ovulation! Be aware of changes in your cervical fluid to help you predict when your ovulating period is approaching. You are probably ovulating and most fertile when your cervical mucus is produced in larger quantities and is stretchy and sticky in nature. On the other hand, you are less fertile if your cervical mucus is dry and produced in lesser quantities. There are some women who feel a mild discomfort or pain in the abdominal area and this is indicative of ovulation as well.

Stop Your Douching Routine (For Her)

Don’t douche as this can actually affect your chances of getting pregnant! While this is a common practice among females, a little known fact is that douching disrupts the natural state of the vaginal and can lead to an aggravation of vaginal infections. Douching reduces your female fertility in short so do not ever douche from now on.

Change Briefs To Boxers (For Him)

Instead of briefs, men should switch to wearing boxers instead. Wearing boxers lowers the risk of the testicles overheating which in turn may lead to sperm damage. Boxers are proven in improving a couple’s chances of getting pregnant, among other lifestyle factors that will be covered below.

Making Love The Right Way (For Both)

While a couple should aim to have intercourse around her ovulation period in order to improve the chances of her getting pregnant, another practical way that can help improving fertility is to make love the right way. Certain love-making positions can help to direct the flow of sperm nearer to the cervix, which in turn greatly improves her chances of getting pregnant.

Female Orgasm A Key To Getting Pregnant? (For Her)

A male orgasm is definitely a requirement for her to conceive but do you know that a female’s orgasm is also key to successfully getting pregnant? There is a little known fact but there is a scientific basis behind this – a woman’s orgasm during intercourse helps to draw the semen deeper into the cervix and this greatly improves the chances of her getting pregnant. There is definitely basis behind the need for both him and her to time their orgasms together!

What To Do After Intercourse (For Her)

What do you do after intercourse normally? Go to the washroom? You must stop doing that because it affects your chances of pregnancy! After intercourse, you should elevate your hips and buttocks to improve your chances of conceiving. This elevated position helps the semen to flow deeper into the cervix and at the same time, prevents any semen from leaking from the vagina. What is recommended by experts is to lay in bed for no less than twenty minutes with a pillow propping your hips and buttocks – this simple action can greatly boost your chances of getting pregnant. The guys can, of course, pop out of bed for their normal activities – their job is done!

Exercise Regularly But Not Excessively (Both)

While exercise is vital for good health and to maintain a healthy weight, it can help improve fertility too. However, do take note that excessive exercise can lead to amenorrhea or absent periods. You definitely do not want that to occur if you are trying to get pregnant. So if you find that you are having irregular periods and you have been exercising regularly and pushing yourself to the max, you should reduce the intensity and regulate the intervals between each exercise activity. This will improve your chances of getting pregnant.

Go For Regular Check-Ups (For Both)

If you have tried all the methods listed above and still are unable to conceive, have you ever wondered why that is so? Much as articles and information can tell you, fertility issues are rather personal and may be just occurring to certain individuals. Both him and her should go for a medical check-up together as it can help you to identify underlying fertility issues and other problems (low sperm count, etc) which may be chronically affecting your chances of conceiving. By alleviating these issues by means of medication or diet, you can then improve your fertility. Apart from underlying health conditions, both you and your partner should get tested for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) which may be the underlying cause of your infertility.

Change Your Lifestyles (For Both)

Apart from taking good care of your health by exercising regularly, you need to take good care of your body. For coffee drinkers, too much caffeine is known to impede fertility so you need to cut down on your coffee intake. Alcohol consumption should be regulated as well. You should also avoid cigarette smoking as it is not only harmful to your general health and leads to a whole string of diseases, but can also affect your fertility greatly. A healthy diet with adequate intake of fruits and vegetables can greatly improve your chances of conceiving.
