What is pregnancy probability
Fertility means the probability of getting pregnant. When healthy men and women have sex at the right time, the natural pregnancy rate is said to be 20-30% . In other words, the probability of getting pregnant is about 1 time in 4 to 5 menstrual cycles.
Fertility declines with age, and is further reduced by health, fertility problems, and untimely sexual intercourse.
The natural pregnancy probability by age is specifically introduced in the next chapter, so please refer to it.
[By age] Release of natural pregnancy probability
The chances of conceiving naturally are grouped by age. If you are wondering, "What is the percentage of pregnancy in my age group?", let's refer to it.
era | Probability of pregnancy when healthy men and women have sex without contraception for 1 year |
---|---|
Early 20's | 86% |
Late 20's | 78% |
Early 30's | 63% |
Late 30's | 52% |
Early 40's | 36% |
Late 40s and above | Five% |
As you can see , the chances of getting pregnant naturally decrease as you get older, especially after the age of 40 . If you want to get pregnant in your 40s, you will have a higher chance of getting pregnant if you consider infertility treatment instead of sticking to natural conception.
Why it becomes harder to get pregnant as you get older
One of the reasons why it becomes harder to conceive as you age is the aging of your eggs . Not only does it become more difficult to conceive, but the miscarriage rate increases with age, which is also thought to be due to the aging of the eggs.
In addition, the increase in the incidence of gynecological diseases due to aging is also one of the factors that make it difficult to conceive. Gynecological diseases such as endometriosis and uterine fibroids can cause infertility. If a gynecological disease develops and is left untreated, it may interfere with egg implantation and growth, leading to infertility.
How to increase your chances of getting pregnant naturally
There are several ways to increase your chances of conceiving naturally. For example, methods of having sexual intercourse at times when the probability of conception is high, and methods of improving eating habits and lifestyle habits . I will explain in detail how to increase the probability of natural pregnancy, so if you are worried about not being able to get pregnant, please refer to it.
When is the most fertile day?
The highest chance of conception is 1-2 days before ovulation . Therefore, it is said that having sex every 1-2 days from 4 days to the day before ovulation increases the chances of conception.
Ovulation day can be predicted by calculation. Measure your basal body temperature every day and predict your ovulation day from changes in body temperature. The basal body temperature is divided into a low temperature period and a high temperature period, and ovulation occurs when the low temperature period shifts to the high temperature period.
If you are wondering, "When is the day with the highest chance of getting pregnant?" In addition to the calculation method using the basal body temperature, you can predict the ovulation date using the Ogino formula and the ovulation date prediction test drug.
Is there a way to increase the chances of getting pregnant?
As mentioned earlier, in order to increase the probability of pregnancy, it is recommended to have sexual intercourse every 1 to 2 days from 4 days before ovulation to the day before ovulation. This is because the lifespan of sperm in the uterus is 72 hours, of which it is said that it can be fertilized for 48 hours.
In order to increase the chances of pregnancy even a little, it is said that it is better to put a pillow under the waist to raise the pelvis after sex and rest for a while, but there is no medical evidence. Also, in order to prevent the semen from flowing out, it is said that it is better to avoid taking a bath or shower immediately after the act, but this is not medically proven.
Therefore, in order to increase the probability of conception, it is effective to match the timing of sexual intercourse close to the day of ovulation and increase the number of sexual intercourse .
Warm up your body
Cold is a great enemy in pregnancy . Let's warm up and warm up your body, especially not to cool your lower body. There are several ways to warm up, such as half-body bathing, moxibustion, and pressure points, so please try them out.
By the way, the point that works against the cold is Saninko near the ankle. Press the point about 4 fingers above the ankle 3 to 5 times for 3 to 5 seconds each time until you feel a little pain.
When the body gets cold, the blood flow in the whole body gets worse. Poor blood flow to the ovaries can lead to poor egg development and fertilization. Also, if the blood flow in the uterus is poor, the preparation to receive the fertilized egg will not go well, so even if fertilization is done, it will be difficult to implant.
Improve your diet and lifestyle
Improving your diet and lifestyle is also important to increase your chances of getting pregnant. Unhealthy diet and lifestyle habits can cause hormonal imbalances and reduce your chances of getting pregnant . Let's be conscious of living a regular life, such as eating a nutritionally balanced meal, going to bed early and getting up early, and exercising moderately.
Improving diet and lifestyle habits is important not only for women, but also for men. Overeating and lack of sleep can reduce sperm quality. To increase your chances of getting pregnant, try to lead a regular life with a man.

summary
Healthy men and women have a 20-30% chance of conceiving naturally. It's not a very high probability, but if you have poor health or the timing of sexual intercourse isn't right, your chances of getting pregnant are even lower. As you age, your chances of getting pregnant gradually decrease, while your chances of miscarriage increase.
It is possible to increase the probability of pregnancy even a little by having sexual intercourse or doing warm activities at the timing of ovulation. Disturbances in eating habits and lifestyle habits are also related to whether or not you can get pregnant, so let's be aware of it from your daily life.
