Understanding Your Monthly Cycle - Understanding
your menstrual cycle can help increase your
chances of conceiving, if you desire to become
pregnant. The menstrual cycle begins with the
first day of menstrual bleeding (the menstrual
period). The body releases hormones that
encourage maturation of eggs inside follicles of
the ovaries. From the 2nd to 14th day of the
cycle, these same hormones cause the lining of
the uterus to thicken and prepare for
implantation of a fertilized egg. These events
are referred to as the follicular stage of the
menstrual cycle.
What Happens During Ovulation- Ovulation, or the
release of an egg, usually occurs between the
11th and 21st day of the cycle. Ovulation is
triggered by a surge in levels of the hormone
luteinizing hormone (LH). The cervical mucus
changes in consistency and becomes slippery, like
egg whites, to facilitate the progress of sperm
toward the egg. The average length of the
menstrual cycle is 28 to 32 days.
It's All About Timing - At birth, females have
about 1 to 2 million eggs. Over a womans
lifetime, only 300 to 400 of them will be
released through ovulation. Typically, one egg is
released with every menstrual cycle. After
release, the egg travels into the Fallopian tube
and toward the uterus. Eggs can live about 12 to
24 hours after release, and sperm can live for 3
to 5 days. Knowing when you are due to ovulate
can therefore help you plan sex with your partner
for the times when you are most likely to
conceive.

Tracking When Youre Most Fertile - Chances for
pregnancy are usually best when sexual
intercourse occurs 1 to 2 days before you
ovulate. You can try to predict this time by
counting backwards for 14 days from when you
expect your next period, if you have a regular 28
day cycle. You should try to have sex every other
day (such as on days 12 and 14) around the time
you expect to ovulate. Having sex daily can
reduce a mans sperm count. If your cycle is
longer or shorter, you can use an online
ovulation calculator to help predict your day of
ovulation.

Tracking Ovulation by Temperature -  After
ovulation, the empty follicle (called the corpus
luteum) produces the hormone progesterone to help
prepare the lining of the uterus for pregnancy.
The release of progesterone causes an increase in
the body temperature. Checking your basal body
temperature every morning before getting out of
bed is one way to try to determine when ovulation
occurs. The thermometer used for this test costs
about 10 at drugstores, so the test is
inexpensive. However, its not as accurate as
other ovulation tests.
Predicting Ovulation by Hormone - Home ovulation
kits (ranging from 20 to 50) measure the
hormone LH in the urine. The surge in LH is the
trigger of ovulation, so this measurement can
help identify the day of ovulation. Some kits
allow for daily testing, and they are about 99
accurate.
The Last Phase of Your Monthly Cycle- Progesteron
e released in the second half of the menstrual
cycle prepares the uterine lining for pregnancy.
If this does not occur, the egg disintegrates and
progesterone levels fall. About 12 to 16 days
later, tissues from the lining of the uterus are
expelled as menstrual bleeding. This usually
takes 3 to 7 days, and then the cycle begins
again.

How to Boost Ovulation - Increasing research
suggests that environmental influences may
decrease fertility. Leading a healthy lifestyle
may improve your chances of getting pregnant.
This includes eating folic acid-rich foods,
avoiding alcohol and caffeine, maintaining a
healthy weight, and consuming more organic fruits
and vegetables.
6
Weight Does Affect Fertility - Women whose body
mass index (BMI) was above normal took twice as
long to conceive as those with a normal BMI in
one study. Weight loss for those who are
overweight can improve both fertility and
pregnancy outcomes. Even a 5 to 10 weight loss
can improve ovulation and pregnancy rates.
Obesity in men can also cause low testosterone
levels, which can be a cause of infertility.
Age Affects Conception Success - A woman's age
also affects her chances of getting pregnant. For
example, a healthy 30 year old woman has about a
20 chance of getting pregnant each month. This
chance drops to 5 for a healthy 40 year old
women. According to experts, a woman under age 35
who has been trying to conceive unsuccessfully
for a year should discuss the condition with her
doctor. A woman over 35 years of age should seek
medical advice after 6 months of trying to
conceive.
Fertility Declines in Older Men, Too -  In
contrast to women, there is no maximum age at
which a man is unable to father a child. However,
a mans sperm count and motility of sperm both
decrease with age. Men over age 45 have been
shown to take longer to achieve a pregnancy when
trying to conceive. You may wish to discuss with
your doctor ways to enhance your chances for
conception if your partner is older.

How Men Can Boost Fertility- Some lifestyle
modifications may be able to boost male
fertility, like maintaining a healthy weight,
managing stress, and avoiding tobacco and alcohol
use. Eating a diet high in zinc (meats, whole
grains, eggs, and seafood), vitamin E, and
selenium (meats, seafood, mushrooms, Brazil nuts,
and cereals) may also help. Keeping the testicles
cool can improve male fertility hot tubs, hot
baths, and saunas can all reduce sperm count.
Infertility Treatments-  A thorough evaluation
is the first step in managing infertility, since
there are so many potential causes. Treatments
can include fertility drugs to stimulate
ovulation and assisted reproductive technologies
like in vitro fertilization (IVF). IVF involves
removal of eggs from the ovaries, fertilizing
them with partner sperm, and then inserting them
back into the womans uterus.
How Home Pregnancy Tests Work - Home urine
pregnancy tests can often tell if you're pregnant
as early as five days before your expected
period. These are based on detecting the
pregnancy hormone or human chorionic
gonadotropin (hCG) that is produced after
implantation of a fertilized egg. If you test too
early, you may get a false negative result, so
you should repeat the test if you suspect you are
pregnant. A blood test at the doctor's office can
provide even more accurate results.

Five Early Signs of Pregnancy-
Five early signs of pregnancy include
a missed menstrual period, feeling easily
tired, feeling nauseous in the morning or at
other times, needing to urinate frequently,
and tenderness and enlargement of the breasts
