I've read some doctors say 1-2 days before ovulation is the best time to get pregnant, and i've read that up to 5 days is best. which is it and why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Both: Sperm left at any time during the five days leading up to ovulation cause pregnancy. The more sperm, the more likelihood of pregnancy.
