💏 There are a lot of myths about what position is best to get pregnant. Missionary because of gravity, doggy style because of deep penetration, and many others. But do they make a difference?
🚫 There is no evidence that the position during ejaculation matters. In other words, there’s no specific position that will get you pregnant! Do what works for you, and sperm will find their way.
🚫 What about laying flat with your legs in the air after sex? Despite what many will tell you, no evidence of doing so will improve your chances of conceiving.
🚫 If I reach orgasm, are my chances better? Unfortunately no! There is no evidence that a female orgasm increases your chances of getting pregnant.
🚫 What about lubricants? Some lubricants can impair sperm transport! While water-based lubricants can inhibit sperm motility, they do not affect fertility, so if you need them to make sex comfortable and enjoyable, that is ok!
🤔 What can you do to make your chances worst:
🔹 Douche after sex: Sperm need a specific pH to survive, and altering it may affect it.
🔹 Use lubricants with spermicide: Make sure that if you do use lubricant, it does NOT contain spermicide.
