A member asked:
Does it hurt your chances of getting pregnant if u don't have sex the day before u have a pos ovulation test? what if u have sex thr day after a pos?

Either Way: Either way is ok. Just as long as you have sex around the time of ovulation sperm hangs around for several days so that is fine.

No: The best time to have intercourse after a positive ovulation test would be the day of the test because ovulation usually occurs within a day and a half or so.
