Almost any woman strives to become a mother sooner or later, but more and more often, modern women have obstacles in the way of this natural process, provided by nature. And sooner or later, every seventh woman comes to a situation: I want to get pregnant, but it doesn't work.

Why do couples face such a problem, what is and what is not infertility? Let's consider these issues in more detail.

Temporary failure or sterility?

When, after the decision to become pregnant, several months pass, and pregnancy still does not occur, thoughts appear that something is wrong with health. I want to say right away that any doctor will calm down a frustrated couple: infertility is the inability to conceive a child for a whole year of having sex without condoms and other contraceptives. Moreover, sexual intercourse should be regular, and the sexual partner should be the same. Only then can we talk about possible infertility and start treating it.

Both partners should be examined. It often happens that the cause is strenuously sought in a woman, especially if she has suffered from gynecological diseases or diseases of the genitourinary system. But a male spermogram (sperm analysis) can also give a lot of interesting material: whether a man can have children or not depends on the number, activity and even the trajectory of sperm movement.

It should also be remembered that there are no means of "getting pregnant very quickly", "calculating the sex of the child" and other "instant" means of solving the same, as suggested in Internet advertising and advertising of dietary supplements. Only the systematic identification and elimination of the reasons why it is not possible to get pregnant can lead to a result.

Calculating ovulation

A woman can get pregnant not on any day, but only during a certain period of the menstrual cycle, when ovulation occurs. During it, the egg cell, ready for fertilization, leaves the ovary and descends through the fallopian tubes, preparing to receive male sperm. The life of this cell lasts only 24 hours, in some women a little longer - 36, but in any case, this is a very limited period.

Why, then, the human race did not transfer on the planet, since it is possible to become pregnant only in a very short period of time - 24 hours a month?

The fact is that a man's sperm live much longer - an average of about 72 hours. They remain active and mobile throughout this time, and can also be stored for a long time in a woman's body after the end of intercourse. Just one sperm is enough for pregnancy, and in 1 ml of sperm of a healthy young man there are as many as 15 million!

Thus, sexual intercourse 3 days before ovulation and the next day after it can also be “effective” (after all, the egg cell continues to exist). The time interval is increased to 5 days.


What is the problem then? It would seem that she decided that I want to get pregnant, had sex all 5 days, and nothing happened?

Ovulation is a very complex phenomenon, and most likely its date cannot be calculated in most cases.

According to statistics, for most women, it occurs 12 days before the start of the next menstruation or earlier (later) by 2-3 days. On average, between the 16th and 18th days of the cycle, the chance of pregnancy is high - it is enough just to have constant sex during this time.

But if the partner's spermogram shows deviations (low mobility, insufficient sperm count, their rapid "stickiness", too high percentage of dead sperm), then just pleasant everyday "exercises" will not help to get pregnant.

It turns out that very large "loads" worsen the quality of sperm: the probability of conception decreases. With a bad spermogram, a man is advised to refrain from intercourse 2-3 days before the time of his partner's ovulation, so that sperm accumulates in the required volume and quality.


Then the woman is faced with the task of calculating ovulation as accurately as possible. If she has firmly decided "I want to get pregnant", you can use reliable, albeit troublesome ways:
  • Basal temperature measurements and scheduling. Before ovulation, the temperature will rise by only a few tenths of a degree - it is very important not to miss this moment, and its graph will show. The first month is only to make observations, in the second you can already use the data obtained. The temperature should be measured in the morning, after at least 6 hours of sleep. This should be done without getting out of bed and without opening up.
  • Hormone tests - a good, effective, but quite expensive ovulation test. It acts on the principle of a pregnancy test, but you need to do it all week during which the expected ovulation falls - then he will show its beginning. A monthly supply of these tests can cost about $ 15. It turns out not cheap, but reliable.

  • Controlling personal feelings - a good (and also free!) Tool for calculating ovulation, no special charts, records or miscalculations are needed for this. It's just that during this phenomenon, the nipples become rough, the chest hurts a little, the secretion of cervical fluid increases, and an increased sexual desire is felt. True, women do not always feel the whole complex of factors, and these factors do not always speak only of ovulation.

But you don't need to focus too much on ovulation: it can have a wandering character; sometimes it turns out that it passes twice in one cycle (very rarely, but it happens), that is, it changes in the same way as the whole body changes.

Relieve stress

Back in the 19th century, doctors told their patients that anxiety was the main enemy of pregnancy. Of course, when a couple is trying by all means to conceive a child, and things are not going well, there comes a moment of anxiety or even despair. Centuries have passed, and people do not change, still worrying about offspring. Fortunately, modern doctors have a scientific basis for everything.


Stress, which is, in fact, anxiety, worries, emotional stress not only knocks down the menstrual cycle, but also thus prevents a woman from getting pregnant. In the fairer sex, constantly enduring stress, internal fears of being childless and other torment, ovulation at the most crucial moment may not occur at all. Very indicative in this regard are the numerous stories telling about fruitless attempts to get pregnant for several years, which ended in an accidental pregnancy during a joint vacation or a holiday romance.

Learning to “let go” of oneself is the main way to calm down, including on the issue of offspring. What, then, to do? Doctors, seeing that none of the partners have any special deviations, recommend going on a joint vacation to some distant, calm, and possibly exotic place in order to switch your thoughts. By changing the environment and relaxing, they successfully conceive a child.

Medical problems

Often it is impossible to conceive a child due to medical problems of one of the partners. Chronic diseases or the consequences of old exacerbations very often lead to infertility.


In a woman, it can be inflammatory processes occurring in the mucous membrane of the uterus or ovaries, as well as diseases of non-gynecological origin, but because of this, no less unpleasant - cystitis, pyelonephritis. Sexually transmitted diseases very often lead to a malfunction of the cycle and an infectious process in the body - because of them, it is also impossible to get pregnant.

In men, urological diseases can occur in a latent or open form, pathologies in the formation of sperm can be present, and there can be poor quality spermogram.

Very often it also happens that the reason why it is not possible to become pregnant is primitive: increased acidity of the vagina (at a time when alkaline is considered favorable). She is so simple that she is often not paid attention to, having been treated for other diseases for years and wondering why pregnancy did not come.

So, the main thing for the successful conception of a child is calmness, anticipation and, of course, the help of a doctor who will advise on any issue and help improve health.

Procreation is one of the basic human instincts. That is why it is so important for a person to realize himself as a parent. Not everyone is immediately given to understand that nothing is capable of replacing people with family, parenting: neither a dizzying career, nor national recognition, nor the opportunity to live "for oneself." If not immediately, then over time, a childless person necessarily begins to feel inferior and unhappy.

So, every married couple has a period when there is a question of planning pregnancy. But in fact, the onset of pregnancy may not happen as quickly as the couple would like. The question arises of how to get pregnant if it does not work out.

Let's analyze in this article the main mistakes of married couples who want to conceive a child. We will also touch upon the basics of physiology, knowledge of which will help you quickly understand the adequacy and appropriateness of a lot of dumb advice on forums on the Internet.

The first stage of preparation for pregnancy

Where to start if you decide to get pregnant, but for some reason this does not happen by itself?

The answer is unambiguous - from going to the doctor to clarify the state of health of future parents. The doctor will prescribe the minimum of examinations that will allow you to assess whether there are any contraindications to pregnancy at a given time. Moreover, the examination is carried out not only for infections of the human reproductive system, as is commonly believed.

Most often, only a woman goes to see a doctor. And if the examination reveals, for example, a sexually transmitted infection, then the treatment is already prescribed for the sexual partner. It is, of course, logical that he also requires treatment. But it is much more correct to undergo an examination for a married couple at the same time and find out everything at once about their reproductive health. And then, with a clear conscience, start an important matter - procreation.

This is pregnancy planning. Unfortunately, only about 5% of families consciously plan pregnancy according to all the rules, that is, in tandem with a doctor. In the understanding of many, planning a pregnancy is only about giving up contraception and having a regular sex life. It's good if that works and a good healthy baby is born. But often in this way either it is not possible to become pregnant at all, or problems arise with the onset of pregnancy.

What kind of examination awaits you? And most importantly - why?

Many people neglect the stage of medical examination before pregnancy, naively believing that conceiving a child is not a tricky thing, everyone gets pregnant and gives birth. They often argue that if, they say, it does not work out, then I will go to the doctor.

But not everything is so simple. Often, a married couple does not even really know what processes are taking place in a woman's body every month, how this is related to conception and childbirth. And that the most dangerous from the point of view of the occurrence of pathologies of pregnancy and fetal development are the first weeks after conception, when a woman still does not know about the pregnancy that has come.


So the first task that a consultation with a doctor solves is an educational program on the fundamental points of the physiology of the human body. Often this already allows you to solve the problem and get a long-awaited pregnancy, for example, using information about the most favorable periods for conceiving a child.

In addition, an examination by a gynecologist will help to identify any pathology in time and, which is very important, to cure it before pregnancy. In addition to general clinical tests (general blood test, general urinalysis), you will be prescribed an examination for infections, the so-called TORCH complex. This abbreviation includes a number of infections, where T - toxoplasmosis, R - rubella, C - cytomegalovirus, H - herpes 1 and 2 types, O - other infectious diseases.

This analysis allows you to determine whether you are immune to these infections, and also allows you to identify immunoglobulins-M, which indicate an acute infection in the body at the time of the examination.

Of course, if an acute current infection is detected, then it requires immediate treatment and a delay in pregnancy for several months. Strictly speaking, we are not even talking about a postponement. It's just that with an acute infection, pregnancy in most cases cannot occur. Therefore, identifying and treating an acute infection can solve the pregnancy problem.

The detection of immunoglobulin-G in the blood tells us about a previous infection. In other words, they indicate the formed immunity to this infection. It is very important to determine at the stage of preparation for pregnancy whether a woman has immunity to infections that are dangerous to the fetus (rubella, chickenpox).

You probably know that during pregnancy, a woman's immunity is suppressed, and the body becomes more susceptible to various infections. Perhaps, if the expectant mother does not have immunity from infections dangerous to the fetus, she did not have these diseases in childhood, then vaccination should be applied before pregnancy. And already two months after vaccination, you can safely plan a pregnancy.

Also, candidates for parents of the unborn baby are examined for sexually transmitted infections (chlamydia, ureaplasmosis, mycoplasmosis, trichomoniasis, and others). Swabs from the genital tract of a woman can detect not only the pathological flora (causative agent of infection), but also determine the acidity of the environment, which is important for normal sperm motility, and, therefore, the ability to fertilize an egg. The hospital complex of examinations includes tests for HIV, syphilis, viral hepatitis.

When examining a woman, an ultrasound of the thyroid gland and small pelvis is performed. The role of the thyroid gland is a separate topic, but for now, take my word for it that this is very important. And about the examination of the pelvic organs I will say a few words. Here we are primarily talking about violations in the structure and functioning of the reproductive system. For example, cysts, fibroids, obstruction of the fallopian tubes are detected. These can be the main causes of infertility, without treatment for which it will not be possible to become pregnant.

In addition, the doctor will definitely ask you to provide the results of fluorography of the future parents for the last year.

This is a short overview. I will talk in more detail about examinations when planning pregnancy in a separate article.

The second stage of preparation for conception

The next step in preparing for conception is to determine ovulation. As a rule, women who read articles on the topic of pregnancy already know what ovulation is. But I will remind you. Ovulation is the release of an egg from a mature ovarian follicle. It occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle.

For example, with a regular female cycle of 28 days, ovulation occurs around day 14 of the cycle. The first day of your period starts a new menstrual cycle. For a long but regular cycle, count 14 days back from the expected first day of your period. For example, with a 32-day cycle, ovulation occurs on day 18 of the cycle.

But the fact is that the cycle is lengthened due to the first phase of the menstrual cycle (before ovulation), when the follicle in the ovary grows and matures. With an irregular cycle, determining ovulation is much more difficult.


There are various tests to determine ovulation, measure basal temperature, perform folliculometry using an ultrasound scan to facilitate identifying the date of ovulation.

Basal temperature measurement should be carried out for at least three cycles. This is the only way to find the most likely ovulation date. The method is laborious and time-consuming, but no financial costs are required. Its reliability is not very high, therefore, it is increasingly being abandoned in favor of conducting ovulation tests.

Determining ovulation using tests is a very expensive business. The test strips are quite expensive, but the results are more accurate. The package contains several (5-7) strips to determine the concentration of luteinizing hormone in urine. The concentration of this hormone peaks on the day of ovulation.

From what day should you start determining ovulation? To do this, with a regular cycle, you can use the formula p–17, where p - the number of days in a woman's cycle. So, if a woman's cycle is 28 days, then it is worth starting to determine ovulation from day 11 (28-17 \u003d 11).

If a woman's cycle is irregular, it is better to use inkjet tests (there are more of them in the package, so this method is cheaper). The test is considered positive when there are two distinct stripes. When the color intensity of the first strip is the same as that of the control strip, ovulation will occur within 24 hours.

Folliculometry is the control of the growth of the dominant follicle, which will subsequently give an egg, using ultrasound. Control begins from 8-10 days of the cycle with a frequency of at least once every three days, and preferably every other day. A follicle measuring 25-27 mm indicates the imminent onset of ovulation. The method is effective, but expensive and not available to everyone.

It is very important to carry out an ultrasound control in order to fix the fact of the formation of a corpus luteum after ovulation, since there are frequent cases of a non-ovulating follicle. That is, there is growth of the follicle, but there is no release of the egg.

You can read more about these methods in the article « » .

When is it worth sounding the alarm that doesn't work?

It all depends on the age of the expectant mother. It is worth contacting a doctor for an examination for infertility if a woman under 30 years of age, who lives a regular sex life without contraception, fails to become pregnant within a year.

Women over 30 years of age should not delay the period of independent tests and attempts to get pregnant for more than 6 months. Until the age of 30, women can have 1-2 menstrual cycles during the year without ovulation. And after 30 years of such empty cycles can be up to five to six per year.

Rules for the safe conception of a child

Early autumn is the best time to conceive.

It is in the fall that the human body is at the peak of its health. Due to the saturation of the body with vitamins, trace elements contained in seasonal fruits and vegetables, and more time spent in the fresh air, the body becomes stronger.

Refusal of future parents from bad habits

Smoking and alcohol significantly reduce the chances of fertilization, contrary to popular belief. Sperm renewal in men occurs every 72-74 days. Even a single use of 30 g of vodka can reduce sperm motility by 30%.

The semen of a drinking man contains more defective spermatozoa, with genetic breakdowns, unable to give healthy offspring. A person who smokes experiences exactly the same changes in sperm quality.

Adjust the weight of the parents-to-be.

Deviation of weight, both towards obesity and towards deficiency, negatively affects the possibility of conceiving a child. With obesity, the hormonal background of a woman changes, and this leads to problems with the onset of pregnancy.

Weight deficiency is also unfavorable. It often leads to a lack of menstruation and, as a result, the inability to become pregnant.

Excess weight in a future father disrupts testosterone production. And the lack of the latter will lead to disruption of sperm maturation.

Proper nutrition and physical activity.

It is very important for both the woman and the man to eat properly during pregnancy planning. A woman needs to introduce more vegetables and herbs into her diet. They contain essential trace elements to prepare the body for pregnancy. Products containing protein (fish, meat, legumes) are necessary for both women and men.

If a woman has a decrease in hemoglobin, you should pay attention to veal. She is able to quickly create a good iron depot, which is so necessary during pregnancy.

Experts recommend eating eggs, caviar, sprouted wheat grains. In such products, nature has provided a large supply of nutrients, since all this is intended for the development of new life. The diet should contain vegetable oil, which contains vitamin E necessary for future parents.

Avoiding junk food containing trans fats is a self-evident stage in preparing for conception. Fatty, salty, smoked, semi-finished products, fast food, sweet will definitely not bring benefits to the body. And with the regular use of such products, the body perceives this as a signal: pregnancy cannot be allowed, since a person does not eat well, there is no supply of nutrients - the body is not ready to endure pregnancy.

At the stage of preparation for conception, it is worth giving up heavy physical exertion. For example, replace classes in the gym with swimming in the pool, walking.

You should not completely exclude physical activity, because for mom this is the last opportunity to slightly adjust the endurance of the abdominal muscles. You can't do this during pregnancy.

Heavy physical labor also depletes the male body, interfering with the normal functioning of the reproductive system.

Features of "bed" mode.

Daily sex life reduces the likelihood of conception, as sperm take time to mature. With frequent ejaculation, young forms of germ cells will prevail in the sperm, and fertilization only with mature spermatozoa (class A) is capable of producing healthy offspring.

Regular sexual activity in two days on the third for conception is the best option, including from the point of physiology. Abstinence for more than a week negatively affects sperm quality. In this case, the old forms of spermatozoa are slowly replaced by new active forms, which will certainly affect their speed and mobility.

It is worth saying that the maximum probability of fertilization of the egg exists precisely at the moment of its release from the ovarian follicle. With every hour of her life, the chances of fertilization and the formation of a zygote from her decrease. In this regard, experts recommend planning intimacy 3-4 days in advance, then the day before ovulation, and the next day after it. The sperm is able to wait for its lady of the heart and maintain the ability to fertilize in the genital tract of a woman for up to 3-5 days.

Reconsider what tools you use. Some lubricants and lubricants contain spermicidal substances that immobilize and destroy sperm cells.

Psychological attitude.

Do not get hung up on poses, do not perceive it as work ("it's time to make a child!"). Everything should happen naturally, without unnecessary stress. Let intimacy be preceded by relaxation (aromatherapy, warm bath with a loved one, meditation).

When planning your pregnancy, try to protect yourself from stressful situations. Plan a vacation with your spouse, a vacation at the sea or in a sanatorium. I know the positive experience of more than one such married couple in a close environment, which three of them returned from a trip. Fortunately, on the territory of Russia, there are more than enough specialized sanatoriums that help childless couples.

I would like to emphasize once again the correctness and importance of contacting a gynecologist at the very beginning of this path. After all, numerous unsuccessful attempts to get pregnant without certain knowledge and examinations, without answers to questions, fall on the shoulders of a married couple. Inevitably, complexes, neuroses, breakdowns and even quarrels arise. Not every relationship can handle it.

It is a completely different matter when a couple immediately received answers to most of their questions, knows from a scientific point of view all the processes of physiology in the human body. It remains only not to change the dream and bring the day of the birth of your child closer.

Taking vitamins.

Three months before the planned pregnancy, gynecologists prescribe folic acid at a dose of 400 mcg per day. But what if the pregnancy never comes? Reception should be continued until pregnancy. It is impossible to overdose this vitamin, but the deficiency for the fetus is fatal.

Now on the pharmaceutical market there are special vitamin and mineral complexes for women and men, recommended for the period of pregnancy planning. Basically, these complexes contain the same folic acid, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, and other trace elements. With a varied and balanced diet, these complex preparations may not be needed, but with nutritional errors they are necessary.

Men's tradition of going to the bathhouse.

Urologists do not advise men to go to the bathhouse while preparing for conception. The testicles are not in vain taken out to the periphery of the male body. Due to this location in the scrotum, a constant temperature is maintained (about 34.4 ° C). In other words, high temperatures during spermatogenesis (sperm production) have a detrimental effect on sperm.

In this regard, men should not wear tight and tight trousers and underwear.

High temperatures for a woman.

Overheating isn't just for men. Gynecologists do not recommend for a woman planning a pregnancy to choose too hot countries for relaxation. It is worth choosing southern countries for travel with a climate that does not sharply differ from yours. In this case, the body will not perceive acclimatization as stress, and a comfortable warm climate will not harm the woman's body.

What does long-term use of oral contraceptives affect?

Often, when a woman has been taking oral contraceptives for a long time, with their abrupt withdrawal, several eggs can mature in the ovary. At first, there is a very high probability of conceiving twins.

The most popular myths about how to get pregnant, which may not help, but harm

While preparing to write this article, I asked what other resources write about this and what people share on the forums. I don’t want to describe in paints how the hair on my head moved. And in this article, I decided to justify the absurdity of the most common "dumb" advice from the forums from the point of view of physiology and medicine.

"Certain poses will help!"

This is a common myth. No change in posture will affect the speed and ability of the sperm to fertilize the egg. Nature has long taken care from all sides to ensure that a healthy, motile sperm in any case finds an egg.

Firstly, thanks to its tail, the sperm cell moves, secondly, the cervical mucus (discharge from the cervix) changes its properties, making it easy for sperm to penetrate into the uterus, and thirdly, the sperm cell finds its lady of the heart thanks to chemotaxis. That is, a special chemical reaction occurs when the egg, releasing certain active substances and attracting sperm to itself, makes them move only in the direction of it.

Judge for yourself, ovulation can occur in the right or left ovary, and how can a sperm cell determine where to run. Here nature itself provides for everything to happen for sure.

I draw your attention to the fact that at this stage there should also be a natural selection of the healthiest and most mobile, since sluggish and with genetic breakdowns cannot give healthy offspring.

As for the posture after intimacy, there is also a slight nuance. You can often read advice to take a pose with raised legs or in a pose "birch". In order to make it clear, I will first explain the structure of the reproductive tract along which the male reproductive cells have to travel.

The cervix is \u200b\u200bthe entrance to the uterine cavity, located exactly in the center of the upper wall of the vagina. And the cervix itself is a convex muscle ring. So, if you go to such a vertical position for a woman, all the seminal fluid will be distributed below the cervical ridge. And it will be very difficult for her to get into the uterus, since the spermatozoa cannot jump. I hope she made it clear that it doesn't look like a funnel.

But it is possible to slightly raise the buttocks by placing a roller under them, and this will really facilitate the path of the inactive sperm. Thanks to gravitational force, everything will get closer to where it needs to be.

"Get a kitten!"

The danger is represented by unfamiliar, street cats.

During pregnancy, you should not stroke other people's cats, pick up kittens. And even at a party, refrain from squashing other people's cats, and you are unlikely to be asked to clean up after them.

"Phytotherapy is safe!"

There is a lot of information on the use of folk remedies (sage, red brush, boron uterus) in women who fail to get pregnant. I am a supporter of the fact that any medicine should be prescribed only by a woman's attending physician. He has all the information about the woman's health, information about the tendency to allergies. Remember that herbs are also drugs, often potent, and have their own indications and contraindications for use.

For example, a woman has been trying to get pregnant for some time and without consulting a doctor drinks, for example, sage, which stimulates the ovaries and the production of estrogen. And in the second phase of the menstrual cycle, not estrogens should prevail, but another hormone - progesterone. It ensures the normal growth of the endometrium, into which the embryo can then be implanted.

In such a woman, it is quite possible that with the maturation of the follicles and the production of eggs, everything is in order, but progesterone deficiency is observed, which happens very often. Without help in preparing for implantation and securing the embryo, pregnancy will still not come. And a woman is wasting her time, not to mention the fact that excessive estrogenic activity of the ovaries can also lead to undesirable consequences.

So, without consulting a doctor and not knowing their hormonal characteristics, women run the risk of unknowingly choosing a remedy exactly opposite in action to the one that the doctor could advise her after the examination.

I agree that thoughts are material. Perhaps I am too down-to-earth reasoning, but it is much calmer to pass the examination and find out that everything is all right with you. And then send requests to the Universe, draw a dream map, sleep in Feng Shui, start a ficus plant, use the things of familiar pregnant women and do much more, which is advised on the forums.

I am sure that one of my favorite aphorisms of Paolo Coelho undoubtedly works: "If you want something, the whole Universe will help to make your wish come true." But you should not completely rely on the help of the Universe in this matter.

So hope for the Universe, and go to the doctor))) And you will be all right! Health to you and your already born and future children!

A very interesting film about how the conception and development of the fetus occurs:

Every woman, at least once in her life, dreams of feeling the happiness of motherhood. After all, in fact, this is the vital mission of a full-fledged person. But how to get pregnant if it doesn't work?

A small miracle that a mother takes in her arms after giving birth will breathe new life into her and give a completely new meaning to life. Unfortunately, it is not always easy to give birth to a child "at the behest of a pike", and sometimes, even after many years of efforts, this is impossible.

Inaction is not an option! It is imperative that at least something be done in this direction. Finding a new partner helps many, but if you have already found a partner in your life and love unites you, this is not an option.

In order to find the right way, you need to understand what are the causes of infertility.

Reasons for failure

When you can't get pregnant quickly, you need to try to understand the physiology, perhaps the reasons for failure are hidden in it.

First of all, you should try to guess the right moment for conception, and have sex on that day.

Certain postures contribute to a successful ending and increase your chances of conceiving.

Ideally, if you reach the pinnacle of sexual pleasure together, the main thing after that is not to douche, but on the contrary, for some time not even "get out" of bed.

In the event that, in the end, it is not possible to get into a position within a year, you should contact a gynecologist. Why exactly is the year called the crisis period?

The answer is simple: a girl can only become pregnant when ovulation occurs. This does not happen all the time, but on certain days of the menstrual cycle.

It must be remembered: only 1-2 days a month can be effective in terms of conception. At least two cycles per year are completely sterile when ovulation does not occur. This is physiology and you need to listen to it.

If it does not work for more than a year, then a medical examination should be passed not only for the woman, but also for her partner.

The causes of infertility can be different and one of them is the lack of ovulation. Having identified it, you will most likely find an effective method of approaching pregnancy and will be able to learn how to get pregnant if it does not work out.

Ovulation

The reason for this phenomenon can be various pathologies, which can only be determined by a doctor.

However, you can identify the absence of ovulation on your own, with the help of simple actions.

Basal temperature chart

For several cycles, you need to measure the temperature in the morning at the same time in the rectum, and enter the data in the table. Thus, the schedule will be built.

Ovulation usually occurs in the middle of the cycle and is marked on the graph by a sharp jump in temperature (at least 0.4-0.5 degrees). The temperature will be over 37 degrees.

You need to know: many factors affect the change in rectal temperature.

For example intimate relationships on the eve of measurement.

Try to connect to the case in order to facilitate the calculations.

Using a custom test

Many girls believe: it is better to use it for ovulation. Outwardly, it looks like a pregnancy test, but their reactions are completely different.

The ovulation test reacts to the growth of luteinizing hormone, which is released several hours before the release of the egg.

Subjective symptoms

Sensitive girls may note on such a day mild pain in the area of \u200b\u200bone of the ovaries, profuse vaginal discharge, increased sexual desire or other unusual sensations.

Ultrasound

You can detect ovulation by visiting an ultrasound scan, but you will have to visit the medical office several times. The disadvantage of this method: a considerable waste of time and money.

But, whatever one may say, the lack of ovulation can be the answer to the question: why you can't get pregnant.

Obstruction of the fallopian tubes

Another common reason women cannot get pregnant is tube obstruction. Due to adhesions in the tube, the fertilized egg cannot enter the uterus and dies on the way to it, or becomes the cause of an ectopic pregnancy.

Incompatibility of spouses

Not a medical concept, however, in life it takes place. So the spouses call certain reasons because of which it is impossible to have their own children.

This category includes the pathology of the woman's immune system and the microflora of her vagina. In this case, doctors find it difficult to determine the cause of infertility, and in the event of a divorce, partners happily have children in other marriages (this is why the concept of “incompatibility” arose).

As for the pathologies of the immune system, they are manifested in the following: the female body rejects sperm, considering them to be foreign organisms. In this case, the doctor prescribes medications for the woman to temporarily suppress the immune system.

In some cases, the sperm can be "killed" by the microflora of the vagina. Its aggressiveness is easy to determine using the Shuvar-Huner test. Perhaps the problem lies in a similar feature of the organism?

Male factor

What other factors affect conception?

There are many, and one of them is infertility in men. A very serious reason for the inability to get pregnant.

Sexually transmitted diseases, tuberculosis, dropsy of the testicle and other ailments reduce the mobility of sperm, reduce their number.

Therefore, when you understand “ i want a baby!”, And your partner supports you, approach the issue together, not moving away from each other in case of failure, because the psychological factor is of great importance.

If there is no adequate medical opinion on the reasons for the absence of pregnancy,. By the way, they helped a lot.

For example, some time after the baptism of the baby, the couple had their own child.

What "folk" methods are worth trying

Special poses

The best positions are those that allow deep penetration of the penis. It is advisable to raise the woman's hips so that it is easier for the sperm to reach the cervix.

And after intercourse for 2-3 hours, it is advisable not to contact with water.

It will not be superfluous to do special gymnastics after sex, namely, lie with your legs raised, not get up for a while.

Douching with soda

Regular baking soda can increase your chances of conceiving. In addition, it helps to get rid of thrush and creates a favorable environment for sperm.

It is advisable to do douching 20 minutes before sexual intercourse.

Drink decoctions of three herbs, brewed separately

Herbs boron uterus, red brush and sage are popularly known for the treatment of female diseases.

You can take decoctions of herbs in phases of the cycle, but it is better to consult a gynecologist if he is a supporter of homeopathy.

Many couples have been observed by different doctors for years, but they still cannot get pregnant. This problem is familiar to many, although the reasons for each are different. Why it is impossible to conceive a child, what to do in a similar situation and which specialist to contact. Why do some spouses conceive without problems, while others cannot get the desired result for a long time.

During planning, you need to eat right, eliminate alcohol, quit smoking

In order to conceive a child, it is necessary that an egg cell meets sperm inside the female genital tract. As a result, the sperm penetrates into the egg cell, where an embryo is formed, which is implanted into the uterine wall and continues to develop as a fetus. But this is only in theory so simple, in practice the process is much more complicated. In a man, with each orgasm, part of the sperm is ejected, which are formed in the testicles continuously. That is, the representatives of the strong half are always ready for conception.

In women, maturation occurs once a cycle, and only one cell is formed, in rare cases several. This cell lives for only 1-1.5 days. If fertilization does not occur during this time, the cell dies. The next chance of conception will be in about a month, when the next ovulation occurs. It is such a short fertile period that explains why fertilization is so rare the first time. Therefore, if it is not possible to conceive a child, it is recommended to have sex at least every other day in order to surely get on ovulation.

But there are also opposite situations, when a woman keeps basal schedules and knows exactly on which days the probability of pregnancy is the highest, it is on these days that the spouses have sex, but something still interferes with conceiving a child, because it is not possible to get pregnant.

The reasons for the long absence of conception

If for a long time the spouses did not manage to acquire offspring, then it is necessary to identify the cause of childlessness. For this, it is recommended to undergo a comprehensive examination for both partners.

  • Quite often, a failure or pathology of the hormonal sphere can interfere with fertilization. For example, it is not surprising if conception does not occur against the background of such hormonal sores as fibroids or endometriosis. But only a specialist can identify such a factor. For fibroids, surgical treatment is usually prescribed, and for endometriosis, hormonal drugs are used to correct the background.
  • Also, the reasons for the childlessness of the spouses may lie in the presence of unhealthy habits such as nicotine addiction, the use of drugs or alcohol. These dependencies lead to pituitary disorders, which provoke disruptions in the activity of the whole organism. The endometrial layer of a potential mother becomes thinner, a man has erectile problems and the quality of seed material decreases, the production and maturation of germ cells in both partners is disrupted.
  • Adhesions in the low-basal area can also interfere with conception. It's just that the cell cannot get to the sperm due to the presence of obstacles in the form of adhesive cords.
  • Menstrual irregularities are also sometimes a significant factor that interferes with fertilization. If the patient's female cycle is irregular, then it is imperative to establish menstruation. To do this, doctors may recommend certain medications, or you can use the recommendations of herbalists.
  • Also, the reasons for the absence of children can be caused by male pathologies, which is why, in the absence of children, it is recommended that both spouses be examined. Moreover, it is advisable to start with a man, because it is quite simple to detect or exclude the likelihood of male pathology, while a woman can be examined for a long time. If a pathology is found in a potential father, it is necessary to contact a specialist in the field of andrology. Maybe a man just does not have enough vitamins or he needs serious therapy. In any case, after the necessary treatment, the man's fertility returns to normal.
  • Stress is considered one of the leading factors preventing a woman from getting pregnant. Therefore, a potential mother needs to learn how to relax with the help of auto trainings, aroma baths and massage, aromatherapy, etc. Soothing herbs help to avoid stressful conditions. Even the slightest nervous tension can adversely affect fertilization. Especially if loved ones constantly remind when you will have children, etc. The human psyche is arranged unusually, therefore, in the presence of such pressure from relatives, it is better for spouses to go for a week, about 4-5 days before ovulation, somewhere to rest.
  • Weight for conception is also important. Overweight girls, as well as overly thin ones, may face problems during fertilization. Husbands also need to think about body weight, because with fluctuations in weight in men, spermatogenesis is disturbed.

If, after eliminating such factors, conception did not occur, then there is a high probability that the couple is faced with infertility. But today such a problem is being successfully treated, and in case of incurability, you can use the help of reproductive specialists and alternative methods of ICSI or IVF.

Regular periods are a great indicator

If a woman thinks that she is healthy, but due to repeated attempts she has not become pregnant, then it is still necessary to turn to specialists. If conception does not occur, then there are still some health problems. Moreover, the health of both parents matters, and not just the potential mother. Because the reproductive cells of both spouses take part in the fertilization process. That is why, having made a decision on the heir, it is necessary first of all to check the condition of the reproductive and other important organs.

It is necessary to contact a gynecologist who will prescribe the necessary tests and diagnostic procedures. Typically, diagnostic tests include blood tests for HIV and hepatitis, syphilis, smears and urine tests for genital infections, including those transmitted during sexual intercourse. Both spouses need to do these tests. It is also necessary to undergo an ultrasound examination of low-viscosity organs. If the tests are normal, you can start conceiving, and if abnormalities are detected, you will need to undergo treatment.

What to do to improve the success of conception? Of course, calculate the favorable period in the cycle when the egg matures and leaves the follicle. The easiest way is the calendar method for determining ovulation. This method is ideal for patients with a regular female cycle. To do this, you need to subtract 14 days from the first day of your period, as a result, you get the day of ovulation. It is necessary to count from the first day of menstruation. You should start trying to conceive about 5 days before the maturation of the egg and a couple of days after it. It is on these days that the highest fertility is observed. A sperm can simply live in the genital tract for about 5 days. In general, to be sure to get pregnant, you need to make love every day at 10-18 days.

The quality of the sperm is equally important, because it is the sperm that fertilize the egg, and if they are of inadequate quality, they will not have enough strength to get to the destination. Male sperm is completely renewed in two months. That is how much a man needs to maintain a healthy lifestyle before conception, do not drink alcohol or smoke, and walk every day. Also, the strong half will have to give up gatherings with friends in the bath.

The frequency of sexual intercourse is also an important point. Previously, there was a myth that it would be possible to become pregnant only with prolonged, almost monthly abstinence. Scientists have successfully debunked this statement, proving that the most correct decision would be to have sex every 2-3 days. This frequency of PA will be most optimal if their target is children.

How to treat infertility

But what can help if the problem is infertility. This is already a serious obstacle to successful conception. You need to see a doctor, today infertility is successfully treated. Most often, factors such as menstrual irregularities, tubal obstruction, endometriosis, etc. are the cause of infertility. If ovulatory failure occurs, the girl is prescribed hormones and stimulating medications. In difficult cases, the possibility of getting pregnant is realized with the help of artificial insemination, which is carried out in several ways:

  1. Artificial insemination with sperm from a donor or spouse;
  2. In vitro fertilization, when a female cell is surgically removed, and after successful fertilization, it is implanted into the uterine cavity (IVF);
  3. A cocktail of sperm and eggs is placed in the fallopian tubes, and then fertilization occurs;
  4. Already fertilized cells are placed in the tubes.

Often, infertility is provoked by the removal of the tonsils, which are the body's defense against various infections. Usually, with severe inflammation, they are removed. Doctors believe that such an operation will protect the patient from articular pathologies, renal or heart diseases. But after removal, a natural weakening of the immune barrier occurs, the production of immunoglobulin substances that protect the body from viral and bacterial attacks decreases. There is also a decrease in the production of substances necessary for the maturation of eggs and sperm, which leads to infertility.

If the cause is hypothyroidism

A blood test will help identify pathology

In some couples, problems with the onset of conception may occur against the background of pathologies of the thyroid gland. This organ is located at the bottom of the front of the neck, on both sides of the larynx, is small in size and weighs only about 40 grams. Under the influence of iodine, which enters the body as part of food, iron produces thyroxine and other hormonal components necessary for the regulation of material exchange processes, mental and sexual, digestive and cardiovascular activity.

The activity of the thyroid gland itself is regulated by the pituitary gland and its hormones. With hypothyroidism, the patient has insufficient thyroid function, menstrual irregularities and infertility, and if pregnancy does happen, then it can be complicated by miscarriage, placental exfoliation or postpartum bleeding. If hypothyroidism has a pronounced form, then due to hormonal insufficiency, ovulatory processes, transportation, synthesis and metabolism of eggs are disturbed, as a result of which infertility develops.

Usually, this pathology is manifested by frequent colds and constipation, lack of appetite, anemic pathologies, etc. Serious changes occur in the patient's appearance, her nail plates begin to exfoliate, her hair grows dull and becomes brittle, the skin turns pale. The patient is constantly chilly, she wants to sleep, is disturbed by hearing and heart rhythm disorders, the weight begins to grow. Residents of iodine-deficient areas risk facing hypothyroidism.

Vitamins and trace elements for a successful flight

To avoid difficulties with pregnancy, it is necessary to provide the body with a sufficient amount of trace elements and vitamins. How to conceive a child if it doesn’t work?

  • Experts say that first of all, you need to supply the body with a sufficient amount of zinc, which normalizes reproductive functions in both parents. And in men, this trace element is extremely important for full-fledged spermatogenesis, because it provides uninterrupted production of testosterone hormone.
  • It is important for male reproduction and selenium, which also normalizes cholesterol and prevents hepatic pathologies.
  • It is important for women to provide a sufficient level of potassium, with a deficiency of which erosive processes in the uterine cervix, infertility and miscarriage often develop. Lack of potassium can be caused by bowel and kidney pathologies, endocrine system disorders, uncontrolled intake of hormones, diuretics or laxatives, as well as excessive consumption of food rich in sodium.
  • It is necessary for full fertility and gold, especially for women, whose element improves ovarian function and the production of sex hormones. Gold preparations are even recommended for gestation and GV.
  • Copper, which takes an active part in the synthesis of sex hormonal substances, will also help you get pregnant quickly.

Vitamin components are also necessary for successful fertilization. For the sex glands to function smoothly, they need retinol. With a deficiency of vitamin A in men, infertility is formed, and in women, cycle disorders. Tocopherol deficiency also becomes a common cause of infertility in both spouses and causes menstrual irregularities. Vitamin E is needed for the normal functionality of the male reproductive system. Also, parents need to provide the full content of vitamin B12, which is necessary for material exchange processes. Deficiency of cyanocobalamin is terrible with anemia and other hematopoietic disorders. If a woman has been taking hormonal contraceptives for a long time, then she runs the risk of earning a similar deficiency.

There are many recipes for traditional medicine that facilitate the onset of conception. Herbalists recommend drinking a decoction of plantain seeds, infusion of sage (they drink it after menstruation and before ovulation) and sorrel, linden blossom and ginger. But it is necessary to be extremely careful when turning to such methods of increasing fertility. Therefore, you first need to consult with a herbalist.


If pregnancy does not come the first time, then there is no point in despair. There are a lot of happy parents who have tried to conceive a child for a long time without success. Everything has its time. And if irreversible infertility is revealed, then the possibilities of modern reproductology are incredible. Even couples doomed to childlessness were able to become parents with the help of artificial insemination, and more than once.

Pregnancy



Almost every woman is ready to say: “I want to get pregnant”, but not all women know how to make their dreams come true. Without a doubt, the day of conception is largely determined by chance, but the right measures increase the chances of achieving what you want in life. In most cases, this requires only following simple rules and understanding physiology.
Many women panic if they fail to get pregnant within two to three months after giving up contraception. In reality, the picture of healthy married couples is different.

  1. 60 out of every 100 couples managed to conceive a baby within six months.

  2. 80 out of every hundred couples - within one year.

  3. 90 out of every 100 couples - within two years.

Usually, advice to those who want to get pregnant boils down to accelerating the onset of the desired event and involves strengthening the immune system, a correct lifestyle.


Features of the physiology of the female and male body, the nuances of the onset of pregnancy should be understandable for every woman who admits "I want to get pregnant."
In order for a pregnancy to occur, a meeting of two cells must take place: a sperm and an egg. As a result, a fertilized egg, called a zygote, will be formed. Every month, under the influence of pituitary hormones in the ovary, the follicle with the egg matures. The follicle bursts in the middle of the menstrual cycle, after which the egg is released. Fertilization should occur within the next 24 hours.
During sexual intercourse, a woman's vagina should get from 3 to 5 milliliters of sperm with 300 to 500 million sperm. It should be noted that spermatozoa can retain their fertilizing capacity for two to seven days. For fertilization, you will need to overcome the barrier that surrounds the egg and its membrane. This requires an "attack" of one hundred to four hundred thousand spermatozoa, but only one of them can penetrate the egg. Within 12 hours, a zygote is formed, the embryo attaches to the mucous membrane of the uterus on days 11-12.


What is ovulation ?
Every woman who said to herself “I want to get pregnant” has reached a certain age should know what ovulation is.
Ovulation is the release of a mature egg from the ovarian follicle, a stage in the menstrual cycle. The released egg is ready to be fertilized by the sperm. In a woman of childbearing age, ovulation occurs every 21 to 35 days and its frequency is regulated by neurohumoral mechanisms, namely the follicular hormone of the ovary, as well as the gonadotropic hormones of the anterior pituitary gland. In order for everything to go smoothly, there should not be the notorious problem of “how to get pregnant if the husband doesn’t want to,” because a man must definitely become a serious support for you.
The rhythm of ovulation can change within three months after an abortion, within a year after labor, after forty years, when menopause should soon come. Ovulation ceases to occur with the onset of pregnancy and after menopause, suggesting the extinction of menstrual function. Correct definition of this stage of the menstrual cycle helps to understand when it is best to conceive a baby.


All women have a significant difference in the timing of ovulation. In addition, even in one woman, the timing of the onset can be radically different in different months, which is explained by the possibility of a malfunction of the menstrual cycle, irregular menstruation. Cycles can be shorter or longer than average, but on average ovulation occurs on the fourteenth to fifteenth day. If the cycle is very short, ovulation may occur at the end of menstrual bleeding. In most cases, ovulation occurs regularly. In order to increase the chances that the desire "want to get pregnant" will come true, you need to be extremely careful about your menstrual cycle.
In fact, the chances of conceiving a baby depend not only on ovulation and the correct calculation of the best days, but also on compliance with the recommendations of doctors. In this case, one should prepare for the fact that in some cases, serious hormonal disorders occur. Health disruptions lead to the fact that ovulation is not able to occur and the endometrium in the uterus is thrown out while a woman is menstruating.


Pregnancy can occur if the ovum and sperm are shining. In this case, the cytoplasm of the egg begins to vibrate actively. If a woman confirms her desire to become a mother and says “I want to get pregnant,” it is extremely important to remain calm in such a crucial period. At the final stage of the maturation of the egg, the sperm must enter the female body.
From the sperm, only the nucleus remains, in which there are 23 chromosomes. The nucleus of the egg also contains 23 chromosomes. The sperm and the egg must come into contact with each other, after which their membranes will dissolve, the cells can merge, divide into pairs and form 46 chromosomes. Moreover, of the 23 chromosomes of the sperm, 22 are similar to the 22 chromosomes of the egg. The features of a person's appearance, his physical characteristics depend on them. The remaining pair will always have an X chromosome, and from a sperm there can be either an X or Y chromosome. XX is a girl, XY is a boy. If the fact "I want to get pregnant with twins" is noted, it is necessary to understand that this possibility largely depends on a genetic predisposition.


Various sources contain opposite opinions on this matter. Some scientists are confident that frequent ejaculation significantly reduces the number of sperm in the ejaculate. Other researchers note that during sexual intercourse, which occurs daily, the percentage of sperm with damaged DNA may decrease. The truth is really near. Every woman who says "I want to get pregnant" should strive for frequent and regular sex, but at the same time it should be enjoyable. The chances of pregnancy are reduced if you start forcing yourself into intimacy, because this turn of events leads to stress and the inability to conceive a baby.


Some couples may trust the calendar too much. It is also important to move away from this extreme. Without a doubt, the days of ovulation increase the chances of pregnancy, but it is impossible to unconditionally follow the calendar, constantly calculate the days and have sex during certain periods.
At the same time, future parents are convinced that the best period for conceiving a child is from 10 to 18 days of a woman's menstrual cycle. Although ovulation is required for pregnancy to occur, time constraints can lower your chances. Each person is an individual, so a woman must calculate when she is ovulating. To determine the best periods, you should measure the basal temperature every day for three months and draw up a specific schedule that allows you to come to important conclusions. In addition, you can buy a special test to determine ovulation. In any case, the calendar method should be a thing of the past.


For the onset of conception, in reality, special postures and exercises are not required. At the same time, if a woman is sure that she wants to become a mother and says to her beloved spouse “I want to get pregnant,” it is best to lie down after intercourse so that the sperm can easily reach the uterus.
In some cases, a woman suffers from a "bend" of the uterus. Such a feature of the body actually leads to the fact that the chances of conception increase in certain positions. The position of the organ determines how high the percentage of getting pregnant will be. In order to receive effective recommendations, it is recommended to consult your gynecologist.

To conceive a child, you should take care of proper nutrition. A low-calorie diet has a negative effect on the hormones responsible for fertility. In addition, estrogens are partially synthesized in adipose tissue. A reduced amount of fat leads to a lack of estrogen. So, if you are wondering what to do if you want to get pregnant, it is extremely important to regulate your own weight before the first attempts to conceive a baby.


  1. You should eat more vegetables and fruits.

  2. Include in your diet foods that are rich in fiber: rice, pasta, wholemeal bread.

  3. Folic acid is required for successful conception and pregnancy. It is found in leafy green vegetables, kale, spinach, broccoli.

  4. Ovarian health and ovulation are determined by protein and iron, so legumes should be included in the diet.

  5. For successful blood flow to the uterus, the supply of omega-3 fatty acids must be ensured, so salmon must be included in the diet.

  6. Vitamins for those who want to get pregnant are also needed. Vegetable fats, vitamin E should be taken three months before the planned pregnancy.

Every woman who admits “I want to get pregnant, but it doesn’t work out” should take care of the correct choice of medicines. During the period of ovulation, it is necessary to stop taking analgesics and anti-inflammatory drugs, because they can have a negative effect on hormonal levels. Decongestants as well as antihistamines can cause vaginal dryness and thickening of cervical mucus, making it harder for sperm to move towards their goal.
Antibiotics lead to serious malfunctions of the bacterial flora in the vagina, as a result of which, with the conception of the baby, you need to wait 1 - 2 cycles. After completing drug therapy, the waiting period before trying should be a month, because drugs are removed from the body within a few weeks. Vitamin complexes are an exception, as they have amazing benefits for the female body.


Every woman understands that the probability of getting pregnant varies, depending on the period of the menstrual cycle.


  1. Follicle maturation (first 14-16 days). During this period, estrogens are most active, which lead to the maturation of the egg.

  2. Ovulation (14-16 days of the menstrual cycle). At this stage, the follicle ruptures. Now the egg can leave the ovary into the abdominal cavity, the fallopian tube. This phase is carried out under the influence of follicle-stimulating, as well as tuteonizing hormones of the pituitary gland. A certain amount of estrogen in hormones promotes the release of these hormones.

  3. The progesterone period, which is also called the period of the corpus luteum (from 15 to 17 to 28 days). Now the formation of the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone and estrogens, occurs. If conception has occurred, progesterone should prepare the lining of the uterus for the embryo to emerge. The maturation of follicles that can lead to miscarriage is slowed down. If the woman does not become pregnant, the corpus luteum should cease to function, with the result that menstruation soon begins.

Many women say: "I want to get pregnant quickly." This situation is possible if you closely monitor the schedule of the menstrual cycle. So, the greatest chances of pregnancy fall on the fourteenth - sixteenth day after the first day of menstruation. In this case, you should know when you will ovulate and add two days to it, since the egg cell lives 24 hours and a day is required to correct for inaccuracy. The egg must enter the fallopian tube, where it will meet with the sperm. The probability of pregnancy is 1: 3.
The possibility of conception actually exists in the days that precede ovulation (no more than six days before the coveted figure), since the sperm can be viable for two to six days.

There are two safe periods in the menstrual cycle of every woman, and in most cases, the days before menstruation are just such an interval.


  1. The first period of the menstrual cycle (from the first day of menstruation to the fourteenth - sixteenth day of the cycle). This period is also known as the relative sterility phase, as the time around ovulation increases the chances of conception.

  2. The third period of the menstrual cycle (from the sixteenth to the eighteenth day to the last day). In this case, conception ceases to be possible, because the egg does not live more than twenty-four hours and it will not be fertilized due to its absence.

If you dream about your family being replenished, it is imperative to contact an experienced physician. The doctor will be able to consult and prescribe a diagnosis, examination. For example, you will find out, if you want to get pregnant, whether you can wash yourself, you will understand what rules and features of the onset of pregnancy are mandatory for the realization of the desired in reality.
If a woman is found to have health problems, but at the same time conception is possible, it becomes necessary to constantly monitor the doctor before the onset of labor.
The spouse should also visit the doctor, since the responsibility of the approach to planning the baby depends on this.
It is imperative to make sure that conception is possible, because recently many people are faced with infertility, which requires additional treatment.
Ideally, you need to drink the cycle of the vitamin complex. The most effective are prenatal vitamins with folic acid, since they even help reduce the risk of neural tube defects in a baby.
The physician will definitely do everything possible to make the desired come true.

Each responsible married couple must take tests and undergo examinations, confirming their good health, the absence of risks for the child. The probability of getting pregnant and giving birth to a baby largely depends on the results of the examinations.


  1. It is necessary to be tested for sexually transmitted diseases, syphilis, HIV, hepatitis. Many STDs do not manifest themselves until a certain time. If you do not make an accurate diagnosis, there is a risk of miscarriage or the development of serious pathologies in the baby.

  2. A man and a woman should determine their own blood type, Rh factor, in an effort to prevent the risk of Rh conflict. If necessary, doctors can make sure that the Rh-conflict does not manifest itself.

  3. Spouses must visit genetics. This is especially necessary for those who already had genetic diseases in their family, and babies were born with pathologies. Modern technologies make it possible to establish the risk of manifestation of genetic disorders, pathologies, after which it will be clear whether reproductive services are necessary.

Without fail, a woman must not only inform her spouse: “I want to get pregnant,” but also undergo diagnostics in order to make sure that she is able to bear and give birth to a healthy baby. So what does it take to get things going as they should?
A woman must pass a culture for the microflora in the vagina, a blood clotting test, and a hormone test. Each of these tests will help you understand the characteristics of your health condition. Such an approach, without a doubt, will increase the chances of a successful conception and pregnancy without unnecessary complications.
The physician must assess the condition of a woman's reproductive organs, her body as a whole, constitutional features, weight and age. For this reason, the expectant mother will need to additionally undergo fluorography, visit a therapist.
Pregnancy is a truly serious, important period for every woman, so you need to make sure that everything will develop as it should.



Has the man finally given up on interrupting the act as a way to prevent conception? This means that the spouse of a woman who dreams of becoming a mother must also turn to doctors and undergo special examinations. So, what is required in order to understand how everything will develop, how high are the chances of having a healthy child for a woman you love?
A man must pass ejaculate for spermogram. Doctors will be able to determine the concentration of sperm in semen, the speed of their movement, and possible structural defects. The test is easy to conduct and painless, but at the same time it allows you to exclude male infertility. If the analysis does not please with ideal results, but there is no criticality, the doctor will definitely give useful recommendations that will help improve the situation. A man may need to quit smoking and alcohol, switch to a healthy diet, and start playing sports. The urologist-andrologist will definitely understand the situation and will do everything possible to conceive a baby and a successful pregnancy with your wife.


First of all, it should be noted that the gender of the child usually depends on how his expectant mother eats. For this reason, if a woman admits “I want to get pregnant with a girl,” you can consult with a doctor and understand how best to eat. In any case, the diet must be thought out to the slightest nuance. So what factors should you pay special attention to?
Losing weight leads to a negative effect on the hormones that are responsible for fertility. If you decide to lose weight, it is recommended to get rid of those extra pounds a few months before the intended conception.
It is imperative to eat in a balanced and healthy way. For example, snacks and a large amount of sweets can always affect the waist and the ability to have a baby. This is due to the fact that an elevated blood sugar level leads to an excessive release of adrenaline, on which the state of progesterone depends, and it is this hormone that prepares the uterus for conception.
Now you understand why diet is important.


Women who want to get pregnant should understand that the chances of success are highly dependent on psychology. Conception may not occur due to constant stress. For this reason, you need to learn to be in harmony with yourself, but for this you can use auto trainings, massage, aromatherapy, aromatic baths, and soothing herbs.
Experienced psychologists note that a strong focus on the desire to become a mother can interfere with the implementation of the desired. If doctors point out that you are able to get pregnant and bear a child, you need to trust the time. The future child will definitely understand when he needs to be born. Failure to get pregnant can lead to fear and negative emotions, but such a reaction will continually push back the fulfillment of what you want.
Parents should understand that procreation should be based on love, so it is extremely important not to rush, but to enjoy a romantic relationship with your soulmate.
Particular patience will be required if a year has not passed since the moment you stopped taking protective equipment.


Every woman should understand that bad habits, regardless of their nature, interfere with giving life to a baby. In this case, you should switch to a healthy lifestyle and consult a doctor who will definitely tell you how long it takes to get pregnant and give birth to a healthy baby.
Women who smoke and drink alcohol have the lowest chances of becoming mothers. In addition, such bad habits have a negative effect on the embryo.
The semen of smoking men contains fewer sperm, which also cease to be active, which leads to serious difficulties.
It is imperative to take care of reducing the amount of caffeine consumed, which negatively affects fertility.
Get rid of bad habits and improve your health before major changes in your family!


Every woman should understand that she should not only know which days she can get pregnant, but also strive to use nature for her own good. So, fertility is influenced by the season. Sperm cells always increase in early spring, as well as in late autumn. Sperm cells become more active in late summer as well as early fall. The ideal time to conceive is the beginning of winter. In this case, you can decide on planning a pregnancy not only to increase the chances of conception, but also to ensure that the child corresponds to a certain zodiac sign.
Men can accommodate their spouses. So, representatives of the stronger sex should wear loose-fitting cotton trousers in the warm season. Tight-fitting trousers lead to the accumulation of heat in the testicles, as a result of which spermatogenesis worsens, the sperm becomes less quality. Winter is, of course, an exception.


Every woman should strive to have perfect health. Regardless of age, the words "I want to get pregnant second" may sound. This is only possible if health and weight are optimal for pregnancy.
Every thin or overweight woman can face serious problems with conception. A man should also think about weight, because his fluctuations lead to a deterioration in sperm production.
You need to understand that the use of drugs can significantly reduce the chances of pregnancy and bearing a baby. Antibiotics, analgesics, antihistamines inhibit maturation
egg cells. Do not use lubricants for sex,
which are capable of killing sperm.


Women are interested in whether it is possible to get pregnant quickly with certain positions in sex. It is really impossible to tell which poses are successful and which are not. It is very rare when the cervix takes an unusual position with intimacy in a certain position. At the same time, you need to remember about the law of gravity, which can lead to a slowdown in the flow of sperm.
For women with a curled uterus, the posture should assume the position of the man behind.
In order to store more sperm in your body, it is recommended to raise your hips after ejaculation. It is best to spend ten minutes in this position, and not to run on business. Moreover, shower is not recommended.
Try to avoid grueling sex to increase your chances of conceiving. The quality of sperm in a man with frequent ejaculation can significantly deteriorate. For this reason, ideally, during ovulation, it is recommended to have sex once a day.

Every woman who dreams of the birth of her baby can take an integrated approach to achieve what she wants. For example, you can recommend folk remedies. In addition, if there is a desire, I want to get pregnant, folk remedies can really help.


  1. Among the most effective remedies, it is necessary to note a decoction, which must be prepared from one-sided ortilia. To do this, use two tablespoons of orthylium flowers and leaves. You will need to brew them in 30 milliliters of boiled water. Now you need to put the product on fire and wait ten minutes. After that, the broth must be insisted, filtered. Take the decoction in a tablespoon three times - four times a day.

  2. Pumpkin pulp also promises to be beneficial due to its vitamin E content. This tool allows you to regulate the hormonal balance of a woman.

  3. Apple cider vinegar can be helpful. Apple cider vinegar can be combined with honey and requires two teaspoons per dose. It is recommended to add this agent to infusions and decoctions, but it can be used with water before meals.


Every woman sooner or later dreams of giving life to her baby. Unfortunately, this is not always possible. In what cases can pregnancy not occur and the words "I want to get pregnant" do not lead to conception, the birth of a baby? In many ways, the chances depend on the age of the woman.
For example, between the ages of twenty and twenty-five years, the chances reach 95%, at the age of 25 - 35 years - 80%, after 35 years - 60%. In fact, even in the prime of life, pregnancy does not occur immediately, so panic is best avoided. Girls under 30 should seek medical help only after two years, at the age of 30 - 35 - after a year, at a later age - after 6 months of unsuccessful attempts. In men, fertile function persists until old age.


Many women face problems during conception, which are gynecological, hormonal, psychological. For example, admitting that I want to get pregnant, but I'm afraid, may be the basis for understanding existing problems.
