Attention Ladies: 4 Indicators You're Likely to Conceive

Frequent intercourse is often recommended for infertile couples, but it can be exhausting. The most opportune time for conception is during a woman's ovulation, when the ovary releases an egg for fertilization. Tracking ovulation can significantly increase the chances of pregnancy. Below are four signs, as noted by Verywell Health, that suggest you're in your most fertile phase:

1. Noticeable fertile cervical mucus

   As ovulation nears, a woman may notice an increase in cervical mucus, resembling the consistency of egg whites. This aids sperm mobility and enhances the ease and pleasure of intercourse. It's advisable to engage in more frequent intercourse when this type of mucus is present.

2. Heightened sexual desire

   An increased interest in sexual activity can be a sign of ovulation. During this time, a woman may appear more attractive, with subtle changes in facial bone structure and increased curves, making her more appealing to her partner.

3. Slight rise in basal temperature

   Basal body temperature, which is measured at rest, typically rises slightly post-ovulation. Monitoring your temperature each morning can be a useful ovulation predictor.

4. Breast tenderness

   Post-ovulation hormonal changes can cause breast tenderness. While this symptom can vary, it can be a reliable indicator of ovulation.

Understanding these signs can help maximize your natural fertility potential.
