Fertile to Conceive Naturally
Most girls grow up never worrying if they will be fertile to conceive naturally. It is just taken for granted that when it is time, they will find their Mr Right and have a baby…
The reality is that about 10% of women in the USA have difficulty conceiving and this percentage is growing. Unfortunately, it is not obvious if a woman is fertile to conceive naturally or not, unless there is a family history or an absence of regular menses since puberty. Otherwise, most women will assume that they are fertile to conceive and will get pregnant naturally if they want to, when they want to.

In this sense, most women do not get treated early enough and with more and more women putting off having a baby till when they are older, it is becoming a race against time for these women who eventually decide that they want to conceive.
The most common recommendation for couples trying to conceive naturally is to pinpoint when the woman ovulate and have intercourse as that will be when the woman is most fertile to conceive naturally.
There are tests that can be done to determine if the man and/or woman is fertile to conceive, but these can only be done clinically and can be invasive and so it is only carried out on couples who have strong reasons and evidence to show that they have problems getting pregnant.
The most natural test of fertility is for a couple to have regular unprotected sex for at least 12 months and if the woman does not get pregnant during this time, then it is likely that one or the other has a fertility issue.
Some women may be fertile to conceive naturally but are simply not getting pregnant because of structural fertility issues such as a blocked fallopian tube. For other women, it may be a case of functional fertility problems such as having eggs that do not mature to facilitate fertilization.
Where male factor is concerned, there may be low sperm count, low sperm motility or blockages preventing the sperm from travelling into the uterus for fertilization.
These fertility problems are not visible without going through lengthy medical assessment and may require sophisticated treatment therapy.
On the other hand, there are some obvious signals that can be used to deduce if a person is fertile to conceive naturally.
Lifestyle habits are the strongest indicators of whether a person is fertile to conceive naturally. A man or woman who smokes and drinks heavily is likely to have problems getting pregnant. In men, these habits results in poor sperm quality and sperm count. In women these habits can reduce blood flow to the reproductive organs and stun the growth of eggs.
The fertility issue will be much compounded if the person is overweight. In fact, many women who are overweight do not ovulate and therefore have no chance of getting pregnant.
Another compounding factor is if either of the couple is in highly stressed profession. There is strong evidence that stress whether positive or negative will disrupt a woman’s ovulation or even cause her not to ovulate at all. It is highly recommended that couples in such work environment take time out to exercise regularly as the endorphins produced will help balance the hormones in the body.
The most frequently voiced advice by women who managed to reverse their infertility is that before seeking any kind of expensive and stressful fertility treatment, the couple should reflect on and make improvements to their lifestyle and stick to the good routine. That on its own is often sufficient to improve fertility and make the couple fertile to conceive.
