If you are expecting a child, then you might be getting lots of advice from your family, friends, relatives, and well-wishers. You might wonder about checking these facts by reading books on pregnancy or surfing through various sites. You'll want to learn as much as you can about keeping your baby as healthy as possible. And, like others, you may fall victim to some of these misconceptions.

However, there will be a few pieces of advice from your doctor that might be helpful in keeping you and your baby safe.

As per the best ivf center in Noida, you should make an informed decision about what to follow and what not.

In this blog, let's distinguish fact from myths when the question is about pregnancy.

 

MYTH- I have regular periods. Then everything will be fine in pregnancy!

FACT-A typical cycle lasts 28 days. A day or two can be added on either side. If it varies dramatically from month to month, you may have a difficult time conceiving.

 

However, even if it’s regular, the state of your periods might also reveal a lot about what's going on in your body. If they're very light, you might be deficient in estrogen.

 If you are having unbearable pain during periods, this can be due to endometriosis.

This might make it difficult for you to get pregnant. Consult your doctor, once you are trying to conceive.

 

MYTH- An orgasm can suck up the sperm in the uterus!

FACT- Although orgasm is pleasurable, it does not appear to have any effect on your chances of conceiving.

Studies indicate that there is no such link between orgasm and conception. And have debunked the assumption that orgasm helps move the sperm up into the contracting uterus.

The truth is that sperm can survive for days in the reproductive canal, with or without orgasm.

 

MYTH- cough syrup can improve your chances to conceive.

FACT- Some forums went crazy a few years ago when it was discovered that an ingredient in certain cough syrups helped to thin and make cervical mucus friendly.

When on the other hand, it has no effect on your chances of getting pregnant. In fact, the medications i.e commonly used to treat infertility thickens the mucus.

 

MYTH- you can’t exercise when you are pregnant or trying to conceive.

FACT-Exercise is beneficial to both you and your baby. However, you may need to make a few changes. As long as you don't have any difficulties or health issues, aerobic and strength-training workouts are encouraged.

Exercising keeps you in shape. It can also help you cope with pain and get ready for childbirth.

Before beginning a fitness regimen, consult with your doctor. Inquire about your ability to exercise on a regular basis, how much you can exercise, and how hard you can exercise. Inquire about safe exercise during pregnancy as well.

 

 

MYTH- only have sex on the 14th day of ovulation to improve your chances of conception.

FACT- It's usually a good idea to try early, especially if you're trying to conceive.

A few days before ovulation, start having intercourse. You can start trying from day 11.  The winning sperm will stay in your cervix for 72 hours to prepare for the descending egg. You may have already ovulated and missed the window if you wait until your basal body temperature rises i.e till day 14. An egg only survives for 12 to 24 hours after being released.

 

Conclusion- Planning for pregnancy is a special feeling for both of you. So don’t spend the time worrying much. You can consult our infertility doctor in Noida if you’re having trouble getting pregnant or conceiving.
