There are lots of things which you can
consider when trying to get pregnant. Besides the things you already know such
as balanced dieting, exercises, weight control, stress management and so on,
you probably also know about alternative treatments.
Alternative treatments like herbal
treatment, yoga and meditation, fertility massage, acupuncture and acupressure
are also proven valuable things that you may consider.
Although there is no enough research to
back up this issue, but it is known that some sexual positions may help in
increasing the chance to get pregnant. There are actually dozens of sexual
position with different kind of names and style, and even modification of
styles.
That is explained in more detail by the
famous Sanskrit literature, Kamasutra written by Vātsyāyana. To mention a few,
the most common human sexual positions are the missionary, doggy and cowgirl
position.
Two major factors in getting the best
chance to get pregnant in relation with sexual act are the sex position and
gravity. The basic principle is that the position of both the male and female
should make use of the law of gravity to make it easier for the sperm and egg
to copulate.
The
Missionary Position.
This is the most common sexual position, where the male lies on top of the
female. Although not backed up by medical researches, most experts suggest that
this missionary position worked best if you want to get pregnant.
This position makes it possible for deep
penetration of the male sex organ and allowing the flow down of the sperm by
the gravity into the cervix opening (cervical os) then into the uterus where
one of the champion sperm may eventually meet the ovum.
To let the gravity work, many experts
suggest not to get up directly after sex but lay down for a while letting the
sperm stay in the vagina. It is also better if you put a pillow under the
female hips to tilt it to a favorable position for the gravity to work
The
Doggy Style.
In this style penetration of the male sex organ is made from behind. This
provides a deep penetration closely to the cervix opening. Ejaculation close to
the cervix opening provides a higher chance for the sperm to enter the uterus
and look for the egg.
But after ejaculation, the sperm tends to
drip out of the vagina because of the position that does not support gravity to
work at its maximum. To give it a better chance, lying down directly after
ejaculation seems to be a good try to increase the possibility to get pregnant.
The
Cowgirl Position.
This is where the female is on top of the male. It is less likely that this
position facilitates the fertilizing process of the egg, since the sperm can
easily drip out the vagina due to gravity, which makes it harder for the
champion sperm to get into the uterus and meet the egg. Some other positions
that you must avoid is standing and sitting.
