How to arrange sex life to get pregnant better?

Young couples who are preparing for pregnancy must have put a lot of effort in bed. In addition to adjusting their bodies and work and rest schedules, they also conduct in-depth research on the timing and frequency of sex. So, how to arrange sex life to get pregnant better?

How to arrange sex life to get pregnant better?

First, find the ovulation period

Having sex during the ovulation period can only increase the chances of conception. For a woman with a regular menstrual cycle, the time of ovulation is basically stable. Ovulation may occur on the 14th day after the menstrual period. After the egg cell is released, it can survive for about 2-5 days, and the sperm can survive for 1-3 days after entering the female reproductive tract. Therefore, sexual intercourse 3-4 days before ovulation and 5-7 days after ovulation can help you get pregnant.

Basal body temperature method

Basal body temperature refers to the body temperature of a healthy person after waking up in the morning. It is generally the lowest body temperature of the day. For women of normal childbearing age, the body temperature rises immediately after ovulation and lasts until the beginning of the next menstrual cycle. Using the changing pattern of a woman's basal body temperature, you can find her ovulation period and have sex 3-4 days before and 5-7 days after.

Watch for changes in vaginal discharge

Vaginal secretions change regularly with the different periods of the menstrual cycle. During ovulation, the mucus becomes more and more, the vagina feels moist, the mucus becomes clear, and the mucus can be drawn into threads, up to 10 cm long. The last day of this mucus is generally the ovulation period. Have sexual intercourse 3-4 days before and 5-7 days after ovulation.

Regarding the frequency of sexual intercourse

According to traditional Chinese medicine, sex will cause loss of blood and essence, so it should not be too frequent. If men have sex every day, they will only lose energy and produce poor quality sperm, which is not good for the fetus. However, this does not mean that they must abstain from sex too much, otherwise the sperm will stay in the testicles for too long, lose vitality, and it is not suitable for giving birth to a healthy baby.

So generally speaking, during the non-ovulation period, 1-2 times of sexual intercourse a week is enough. During the ovulation period, you can have sex a little more frequently depending on the situation.

Ovulation period: Sex once every 2 days

So what is the specific frequency of sexual intercourse during the ovulation period? It is recommended to have sexual intercourse once every two days. This is because the egg can often live for 12-24 hours after birth, while the sperm can only live for 1-3 days after entering the female vagina. Therefore, it is easy to get pregnant if you have sex 3 days before ovulation or within one day after ovulation. If you have sex once every two days in the week before ovulation, you can ensure the quality of sperm and increase the chance of sperm and egg meeting. Of course, after sex, women can also lie down for a while to let "good pregnancy" come?

What are the benefits of sex for women?

Helps eliminate insomnia

Everyone longs for a deep and sweet sleep, but insomnia caused by various reasons often troubles everyone. Women are especially more likely to suffer from insomnia.

After a harmonious sex life, the tense and excited body begins to relax, the muscles are stretched in the tiredness after satisfaction, and sleepiness comes naturally, which helps to eliminate insomnia. And the happier the sex life, the easier it is to fall asleep afterwards.

Relieve premenstrual syndrome

In the 5-7 days before menstruation, the blood flow into the pelvis increases, which may cause swelling and cramps, leading to abdominal distension or abdominal pain. However, the muscle contraction movement during sexual intercourse can accelerate the blood flow out of the pelvic area and enter the general blood circulation, thereby reducing pelvic pressure and alleviating abdominal discomfort.

Semen helps disinfect the female vagina

Experiments have shown that there is an antibacterial substance in semen - semen cytokinin, which can kill pathogenic bacteria such as staphylococcus, streptococcus, and pneumococcus. Therefore, sex can help women's genitals avoid microbial invasion. Women who have not had sex for a long time are more likely to suffer from vaginitis, endometritis, salpingitis and other diseases.

Helps keep the mind young

Studies have shown that the "use it or lose it" sexual atrophy also applies to people who lack sex life. Proper sex life helps prevent brain aging and promotes metabolism, and memory is also stronger.

Effectively reduce the incidence of heart disease and myocardial infarction

Sexual life can make the pelvis, limbs, joints, muscles, and spine more active, promote blood circulation, and enhance heart function and lung capacity. Therefore, people with harmonious sex life have at least 10% less risk of heart disease than those with disharmonious sex life.

Alleviate or relieve pain

It sounds a bit magical that sex can have the same effect as aspirin. However, a large number of studies have confirmed that sex can stimulate the central nervous system of the brain and secrete a chemical called endorphins, which is quite effective in reducing pain.

Reduce the occurrence of skin diseases

Poor blood circulation in the skin can lead to skin diseases such as acne and dark spots. Moderate sex can accelerate blood circulation, balance metabolism, make the skin smooth and tender, and play a role in preventing and treating skin diseases.

Improve the immune system's ability to fight disease

Modern civilized life makes people's immune system more vulnerable than before. Colds, high blood pressure, and various ulcers are often unavoidable. Sexual life can make adrenaline secreted in a balanced manner, and muscles contract first and then relax, thus forming a virtuous cycle and keeping the immune system in a good state.

Promotes female reproductive health

Estrogen in women's bodies can help women maintain a good structure and function of their blood circulation system. Regular and harmonious sex life can increase the estrogen level in women's bodies compared to women who have sex occasionally. This can strengthen the physiological function of the ovaries, normalize menstruation, and delay menopause. In addition, every sexual intercourse will increase vaginal secretions and prevent dryness of the vaginal mucosa.

Slow down aging

Women's bones start to become porous around the age of 35, and sex can regulate cholesterol, maintain bone density, and slow down osteoporosis, making the whole person look light and flexible.

Can I have sex on New Year's Day?

It is not suitable to have sex on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, do not take a bath, wash your hair, or do laundry. Do not have sex so as not to wash away your talent and fortune. Do not call others by their names to wake them up, as this will make them feel urged to do things all year long. Do not eat porridge, meat, or medicine in the morning. Do not cook new rice, but eat the New Year's Eve rice left over. This means that if you cannot finish eating last year's food, there will be some left this year. Do not take a nap.

It depends on how you understand customs. It's up to the individual whether to believe in it or not. I personally do not recommend having sex on New Year's Day.

Why can't you have sex on the first day of the Chinese New Year?

Here are the reasons for not sharing a room on New Year's Day:

Reason 1

Avoid having sex on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, or on days with wind, rain, and thunderstorms!

Reason 2

The first and fifteenth day of every month is the time when the moon is deficient. The moon belongs to Yin, and this is Yin deficiency. People also avoid sexual intercourse for fear of imbalance between Yin and Yang.

Reason 3

Sexual intercourse is prohibited on certain days of the lunar calendar.

The first, seventh, eighth, twenty-second, twenty-third and last day of each lunar month. The fifteenth day of a short month and the sixteenth day of a long month (a full 30-day lunar month is a long month, and a short month is less than 30 days). Be careful about having sex for the purpose of pregnancy, otherwise it is very easy to cause dementia. Of course, having sex just for pleasure is also fine.
