01 menstrual prediction algorithm

14 days before the next menstruation (the first 4 and the 5th) are the theoretical "ovulation period". This is the most traditional and convenient method, but is only suitable for women with regular menstrual cycles .

02 Basal body temperature method

The body temperature suddenly drops slightly during ovulation,After ovulation, the body temperature rises by an average of 0.5°C, so you can measure your body temperature every morning when you wake up, and estimate the ovulation period based on the change in body temperature.

Although the temperature measurement is a simple operation, because of this method of , there are many interference factors (such as physical health, sleep status, etc.) , the error will be relatively large, it takes a long time to persist in order to calculate a more accurate ovulation period.

03 Leucorrhea monitoring method

At the time of ovulation, a woman's leucorrhea will become clear and easy to stretch. Women who are preparing for pregnancy can predict their leucorrhea by observing their leucorrhea.

It should be noted that the color and traits of vaginal discharge will change with the menstrual cycle. may also be affected by irregular menstruation or some gynecological diseases Influence, cause error .

04 Ovulation test paper method

about 24 hours before ovulation,Women's luteinizing hormone (LH) levels will peak, and then there will be a sharp drop. Women drop urine on the ovulation test paper . If there is a strong yang (dark color), it means that ovulation is about to occur.

currently on the market includes qualitative test paper, semi-quantitative test paper and full-quantitative test paper. The first two need to be judged by the naked eye. They are highly subjective and prone to errors. It is recommended to choose a full-quantity test paper, which can intelligently and accurately monitor ovulation .

In addition to the above self-test methods, women can also monitor ovulation through abdominal ultrasound, which is currently the most accurate monitoring method. The monitoring is usually started on the 10-11th day of menstrual cramps. According to the size of the follicle, it is measured every other day or every day.

However, due to frequent hospital visits and high cost, ordinary women who are preparing for pregnancy seldom choose this method, so I won't go into details here.

Self-test Step 3: Don't scare yourself with infertility

If there is no problem with the above two steps, does it mean that you are really infertile?

Not necessarily. There are many reasons for infertility. Female factors account for 40%, male factors account for 30%, male and female factors account for 20%, and 10% are unknown.

Here we mainly talk about infertility caused by female factors. If women want to get pregnant successfully, they need to ensure that there are no mistakes in 3 steps, namely, good seeds, good passages and good soil .

01 Good seeds

Only when the egg matures and is discharged from the ovary can there be a chance to meet the sperm. If a woman's eggs are immature or cannot be discharged, it may lead to infertility. The common clinical polycystic ovary syndrome , unruptured follicle luteinization syndrome and premature ovarian failure may cause egg problems.

02 A good channel

The encounter and further development of the egg and sperm need to "travel the mountain and the cervix, and ensure that the passage of the vagina and the oviduct is smooth." If the passage is blocked, it is possible to "die before leaving the school". In severe cases, it will cause ectopic pregnancy .

03 Ultrasonic examination

The quality of the soil is related to the success of the seed sowing. Endometrium is the place where the fertilized egg grows and develops, just like the soil where seeds are sown. If a woman’s endometrium is damaged, it will affect the implantation and development of the fertilized egg. Endometrium is too thin/thick, endometrial inflammation, intrauterine adhesions, uterine adenomyosis , etc., will cause adverse effects on the endometrium, leading to infertility.

So, how do you judge whether your seeds, passages and soil are good? This requires pregnant couples to do pre-pregnancy check-ups in order to find problems early and treat them in time .

Women’s menstruation also has a "suggesting" effect , if the cycle is irregular, menstrual flow, menstrual color, and severe dysmenorrhea, women may have problems with menstruation. , We must pay attention to it! In addition, will also affect pregnancy during pregnancy. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a good mood and not be too anxious.
