A member asked:
When do you need to have sex before you ovulate to get pregnant. is it a day or 2before ovulation .
A doctor has provided 1 answer
1-2 days is best: The probability of pregnancy is highest with intercourse 1-2 days before ovulation. At that point the probability is 30%. It drops to 15% three days prior, 12% on the day of ovulation, and is virtually zero 1-2 days after ovulation.
