Can I have sex during ovulation induction?

Due to various reasons, such as pituitary dysfunction or diseases such as pituitary adenomas, some women will not ovulate, which will directly lead to infertility. In order to solve this problem, many medical methods can be used to promote ovulation, such as ovulation-promoting injections. Women should pay attention to relevant matters during the ovulation-promoting process. So, is it possible to have sex at this time?

Can I have sex during ovulation induction?

After the injection of ovulation-stimulating injection, go to the hospital to observe the development of the follicle. When you find that its diameter reaches 18 mm, it means that it is mature and may rupture and ovulate at any time. Generally, you can have sex thirty-six hours after the injection. Pregnancy is only possible if you have sex during your ovulation period. Generally, the chance of pregnancy only exists about three days after ovulation, so do not rush to have sex after the injection. Both men and women should also do moderate exercise to increase sperm vitality.

Causes of infertility during ovulation:

1. Abnormal fallopian tube

Ovulation occurs, and some patients suffer from infertility due to blockage of the fallopian tubes. This is the main cause of female infertility. When the fallopian tubes become inflamed, mucosal secretions decrease, the lumen becomes adhered, and the peristalsis of the entire fallopian tube weakens, which not only leads to infertility, but also increases the chance of ectopic pregnancy. When suffering from pelvic endometriosis, the fallopian tubes may become adhered and twisted, leading to female infertility.

2. Uterine factors

Uterine abnormalities may also be a cause. The normal position of a woman's uterus is generally forward-tilted and forward-flexed, with the cervical opening facing backwards. After sexual intercourse and ejaculation, the cervical opening invades the semen pool, which is very beneficial for conception. If the uterus is retroverted or bent, the cervical opening will move forward and upward, which will make it difficult for sperm to enter the uterine cavity and cause infertility. If you suffer from endometritis, it will hinder the implantation of the fertilized egg.

3. Cervical lesions The cervix is ​​the first barrier for sperm to pass through. If a disease occurs, sperm motility will decrease, making it difficult for a fertilized egg to form, resulting in infertility. If you suffer from chronic cervicitis or low estrogen levels, the cervical mucus may contain many white blood cells or become thick, which may affect female conception. Cervical polyps can block the passage of sperm.

Ovulation period pregnancy rate

Experts say that having sex during the ovulation period only makes the probability of conception higher than usual, but not 100%. Although using B-ultrasound to monitor eggs is currently the most accurate method of monitoring ovulation, it cannot guarantee that "sowing" will be 100% successful. Because ovulation is only one of the factors for successful conception, the quality of eggs and sperm is also an aspect that affects conception, as well as some other aspects.

Women may ovulate even when they are not in their ovulation period. Many women get pregnant after having sex outside of their ovulation period and go to the hospital for abortion. Because psychological factors such as human emotions are also likely to affect the process of conception. Pregnancy is a very natural process. If you monitor the whereabouts of the egg too deliberately, it may affect the quality of the egg due to emotional tension, which will often result in a greater possibility of not getting pregnant the more anxious you are.

In addition, there is a science to having sex during ovulation.

For example, the time of having sex is one aspect:

Since sperm can survive in the female body for 3 to 5 days, andrology experts currently recommend that sperm start running early, that is, sexual intercourse once every two days a week before ovulation, and can continue 4 days after ovulation, for a total of 10 days including the ovulation day. This allows the sperm to reach the fallopian tube and meet the egg earlier or on time. Studies have reported that this method of sexual intercourse has a significantly higher pregnancy rate than sexual intercourse after ovulation.
