What you should know about Ovulation to naturally get pregnant easily

What is Ovulation?

Every female has different ovulation and menstrual cycles from another female. Ovulation is a stage when your eggs are ready to get fertilized. As soon as they are fertilized, a female gets pregnant. A female is fertile at the maximum level just 2 – 3 days before ovulation. Knowing your day of ovulation, you can set the time of intercourse to increase the chances of conceiving a child.

Surprising factors about ovulation:

1. Uterine lining thickens in order to get ready for the egg cell that will connect to the uterine walls. A egg is removed from ovary and moves down towards fallopian tubes to the uterus to interact with sperms in case they are present there.
2. If egg is not fertilized, it is dissolved then the thickened uterine lining is removed through period.
3. A female is born with about two million immature eggs present in her ovaries that remain throughout her life and among of which only 300 – 500 become mature.
4. Intake of birth control pills obstructs ovulations. The hormones present in these pills prevent the release of eggs from ovary so sperms do not get eggs to fertilize.
5. An egg’s age is only 4 to 12 hours after it is released from ovary.
6. Ovulation occurs about 11^th to 14^th days of a female’s period so around two weeks before her period starts.

How to track ovulation

1. The best way to track your ovulation is to count back. Track the patterns of your body temperature and mucus discharge for one or two cycles. After a few days of ovulation, your basal body temperature increases.
2. Some females also experience mild pains in the abdomen when the time to ovulate is near.
3. The best method is to test your hormone levels by using ovulation prediction kit.
