POSITIONS TO GET PREGNANT

Most Successful Positions to Get Pregnant

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.

You may as well use any position as you wish, but please keep in mind that position and gravity are the key factors that increase the possibility to get pregnant.
