For Most couples conception happens fairly easily but for some it doesn’t happen quite as quickly as they would like. Some of you may have difficulties to get pregnant or even fertility problems and you probably have already read about how to improve your chances of getting pregnant and prepare your body in order to conceive. As I read in many articles on this matter and over my experience, ovulation prediction and figuring out your fertility can be the key to getting pregnant quickly. The suggestions like achieve your ideal weight, lower exercising, reduce stress and depression, are actually important because your overall health has a direct impact of the ovulation. These are same facts concerning ovulation: Â

• Ovulation occurs when a mature egg is released from the ovary, pushed down the fallopian tube, and is available to be fertilized. The lining of the uterus has thickened to prepare for a fertilized egg. If no conception occurs, the uterine lining as well as blood will be shed-time of menstruation. Ovulation can be affected by stress, illness or disruption of normal routines. Ovulation can occur even if a menstrual period has not occurred and a menstrual period can occur even if ovulation has not occurred.  

On average, a woman’s cycle normally is between 28-32 days, but some women may have much shorter cycles or much longer ones. Ovulation can be calculated by starting with the day the last menstrual period (LMP) starts or by calculating 12-16 days from the next expected period. Most women ovulate anywhere between Day 11 - Day 21 of their cycle, counting from the first day of the LMP. This is what many refer to as the “fertile time” of a woman’s cycle, because sexual intercourse during this time increases the chance of pregnancy. Ovulation can occur at various times during a cycle, and may occur on a different day each month. To determine when you ovulate It is important to track your cycle; There are tools  to help you do this. Studying the changes in cervical mucus and  using a basal thermometer. Cervical fluid will change to a wet, slippery substance that resembles “egg whites” just before ovulation occurs and until ovulation is over.  A basal thermometer helps track a body temperature rise, which signals that ovulation has just occurred. Another way to track ovulation is through ovulation kits and fertility monitors.
So boost your health physical and emotional, and keep in mind that,  for most women, ovulation does not occur 14 days after their period starts. And if your doctors didn’t have much advice to offer other than to keep trying, well, keep trying, because it is evident there is no medical obstacle for you; what the doctors are never saying and I’m going to tell you is: keep your foot warm because a bit of a pain near the ovaries can be caused of cold legs and can impact the ovulation.
