A member asked:

I'm really worried.. is it true when having a 28 days cycle makes it harder to get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Haven't heard that: The standard menstrual cycle length is 28 days. That probably means billions of women have gotten pregnant with 28-day cycles. There are 13 of these 28-day cycles each year, if a woman is regular. So, that's 13 eggs in January through December. Sounds like pretty good odds.

Dr Hughes and 3 doctors agreed
