Detailed explanation-1: -During the average woman’s menstrual cycle there are six days when intercourse can result in pregnancy; this “fertile window” comprises the five days before ovulation and the day of ovulation itself.
Detailed explanation-2: -While the uterine lining continues to grow, the pituitary gland in the brain releases a hormone that sends a message to the ova in the ovaries. One egg is ‘selected’ to develop and is then released from the ovaries. This process is called ovulation and usually takes place between Day 11 to Day 18 of your cycle.
Detailed explanation-3: -It’s possible to get pregnant any time you have unprotected sex, regardless of what day it is in your cycle. Sperm can live in a woman’s reproductive tract for about six days, so it’s always best to use protection.
