What is good day after periods to conceive?
Patient: Yes...I am 24 years of age and Me and my husband are trying to have a baby...we have been trying for over 8months now and we are starting to wonder...I have been keeping up with my period cycle which is in between 28-32 days. I started last month (Feb) on the 11th and ended on the 17th.....if it was 28 days then I would have started on the 17th of march...and if it was on a 32 day then I would have started today the 21st so is this normal? what should I do? Doctor: Hi , How are you doing ? Let me give you a list of investigations which can find if any hindrances Husband- Semen analysis at least 2-  done 4 weeks apart preferably in an infertility center ( examination done by andrologist), Blood sugarsWife - Blood Sugars, Thyroid profile Ultrasound scans to evaluate Uterus , Ovaries & adnexa          Confirm tubal patency- most important- Tube is the connection           between uterus & ovaries( the bridge where sperm meets the egg &           forms a baby) this is size of hair follicle & cannot be seen on scans.           So check with HSG( Xray with dye), or SSG ( Scan with dye) or            LaparoscopyIf all this done & found normal , nothing can stop a pregnancy with God's willFor the best fertility period. Have sex daily or alternate days once your bleeding stops. This is to clear the old sperms. (1st day of bleeding is first day of periods) , stop sex on day 10, No sex for 2-3days then again have sex from day 13 for next 5 days. This is time of ovulation. This will definitely get more healthy & young sperms to reach egg. Older sperms will cause lower pregnancy rate & unhealthy pregnancy.Hope I have clarified your queries All the bestDr.Balakrishnan
