Question 1

does ovulation mean you're pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Just the opposite: Ovulation means a woman is not pregnant.  Pregnant women do not ovulate.  Of course, pregnant women got pregnant (if a natural pregnancy) by ovulating and spending some time with guys (who contributed sperm).  After becoming pregnant, a woman won't ovulate again until weeks or months after her baby is born.

Question 2

can you force ovulation when pregnant?

Accepted Answer

: Ovulation does not continue during pregnancy.

Question 3

does ovulation stop if you are pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Yes: While you are pregnant, the hormonal cycles that cause you to ovulate and also to have menstrual cycles stop in response to the hormones produced by the placenta. After delivery, breast feeding can extend the amount of time before you begin ovulating again, but is not a reliable form of birth control!

Question 4

ovulation does not occur when pregnant ?

Accepted Answer

Yes: When you are pregnant the egg-maturation function of the ovary is suppressed.

Question 5

do ovulation test help you get pregnant?

Accepted Answer

Yes.: They will help maximize your chances to conceive by telling you when to have unprotected sex. Best of luck!

Question 6

can you get pregnant day before ovulation?

Accepted Answer

: Yes:  sperm survive in the vagina, uterus, and Fallopian tubes for several days. Sex one day before ovulation is likely to result in conception. If you keep relying on sex timing to avoid pregnancy, probably you will be pregnant soon. Assuming that is not your intent, please get onto proper contraceptive NOW! Good luck.

Question 7

can i get pregnant 7 days before ovulation?

Accepted Answer

Doubtful: You could have sex once, six days before ovulation and have a 3 in 1000 chance of conceiving, because the sperm can be viable and effective for that long. It is unlikely that you would conceive by having sex seven days before ovulation.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Possible: Generally, 25% of women get pregnant on the first attempt, 30% at the end of 3 attempts, 60% at the end of 6 attempts, 80% at the end of 9 attempts and 85% at the end of a year.  The remaining 15%, by definition, are infertile and should consider seeing their gyn or a infertility specialist.  Good luck.

Question 9

can i get pregnant 4 days before ovulation?

Accepted Answer

Yes: I will tell my patients that an act of intercourse can result in a pregnancy 5 days later.

Question 10

can you get pregnant first day of ovulation?

Accepted Answer
