Not getting pregnant while ovulating could be due to timing issues or which ovary releases the egg. Having sex at the right time is important for conception. There are also other factors not related to ovulation that affect the chances of pregnancy.
If you're ovulating but not getting pregnant, it may be because of timing or which side you ovulate from.
Timing of Intercourse: According to research, timing sex close to ovulation increases the chances of getting pregnant. It's important to know when you're ovulating and plan intercourse around that time.
Side of Ovulation: Studies show that eggs released from the right ovary may lead to pregnancy more often than those from the left. This could be one reason why getting pregnant sometimes takes longer.
Timed Intercourse: Planning sex at the right time can help. Couples trying to conceive often benefit from learning about their ovulation cycle and timing intercourse accordingly.
Understanding these factors can help in planning for pregnancy. If you have concerns, talking to a healthcare provider can provide more specific guidance.
