How long do sperm live? Answering questions like these, we find there is widespread misinformation about fertility everywhere. Having a fertility calculator or ovulation tracker like Premom can be helpful and knowing more scientific-based knowledge is essential. From what we hear and read on social media about TTC chances or a healthy sperm count, to discussions amongst family or friends, rumors can spread easily. This can be discouraging to some women who may think their chances of pregnancy have lessened, or feeling like knowing how to avoid pregnancy naturally is impossible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, you will be quite surprised to find out that some of these myths may not always be true. As well-versed as we all may believe we are when it comes to our reproductive health, there is a good chance there are one or two things we didn\u2019t even know! To help you get the most accurate information about your chances of pregnancy, we asked Mikayla Dalton, Fertility Awareness Method Educator to help debunk some of those stubborn fertility myths for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-myth-1-there-s-a-80-chance-of-nbsp-pregnancy-each-cycle-when-you-re-trying-to-get-pregnant\"><strong>Myth 1: There\u2019s a 80% chance of\u00a0pregnancy each cycle when you\u2019re trying to get pregnant.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>False:&nbsp;<\/strong>If you happen to have sex on your most fertile day of the cycle or have sex one time \u2014 and it\u2019s on your very most fertile day (ovulation day) \u2014 the chance of pregnancy from that one act of intercourse on your very most fertile day is around\u00a0 25% depending on your age\u2026 If you are just having sex casually through a cycle, that percentage can be even lower than 25% can be true. The five days leading up to ovulation day, your chances of pregnancy gradually increase from 5%- 15% statistically up to that 25 or 30%.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-myth-2-you-should-wait-at-least-one-year-while-trying-to-nbsp-get-pregnant-before-seeking-medical-help\"><strong>Myth 2: You should wait at least one year while trying to\u00a0get pregnant before seeking medical help.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Truth:<\/strong>\u00a035 \u0c0f\u0c33\u0c4d\u0c32\u0c41 \u0c2a\u0c48\u0c2c\u0c21\u0c3f \u0c2a\u0c4d\u0c30\u0c2f\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c28\u0c3f\u0c38\u0c4d\u0c24\u0c42 \u0c35\u0c3f\u0c1c\u0c2f\u0c02 \u0c38\u0c3e\u0c27\u0c3f\u0c02\u0c1a\u0c15\u0c2a\u0c4b\u0c24\u0c47 \u0c06\u0c30\u0c41 \u0c28\u0c46\u0c32\u0c32\u0c41 \u0c05\u0c28\u0c3f, 35 \u0c0f\u0c33\u0c4d\u0c32\u0c32\u0c4b\u0c2a\u0c41 \u0c2a\u0c4d\u0c30\u0c2f\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c28\u0c3f\u0c38\u0c4d\u0c24\u0c42 \u0c09\u0c02\u0c1f\u0c47 12 \u0c28\u0c46\u0c32\u0c32\u0c41 \u0c05\u0c28\u0c3f \u0c1a\u0c3e\u0c32\u0c3e \u0c2e\u0c02\u0c26\u0c3f \u0c35\u0c48\u0c26\u0c4d\u0c2f\u0c41\u0c32\u0c41 \u0c1a\u0c46\u0c2c\u0c41\u0c24\u0c3e\u0c30\u0c41. \u0c2e\u0c40\u0c30\u0c41 \u0c2a\u0c46\u0c26\u0c4d\u0c26 \u0c35\u0c2f\u0c38\u0c41\u0c32\u0c4b \u0c24\u0c32\u0c4d\u0c32\u0c3f \u0c15\u0c3e\u0c35\u0c3e\u0c32\u0c28\u0c3f \u0c1a\u0c42\u0c38\u0c4d\u0c24\u0c41\u0c28\u0c4d\u0c28\u0c1f\u0c4d\u0c32\u0c2f\u0c3f\u0c24\u0c47, \u0c15\u0c4a\u0c02\u0c1a\u0c46\u0c02 \u0c0e\u0c15\u0c4d\u0c15\u0c41\u0c35 \u0c38\u0c2e\u0c2f\u0c02 \u0c15\u0c4d\u0c30\u0c02\u0c1a\u0c4d \u0c1c\u0c30\u0c41\u0c17\u0c41\u0c24\u0c41\u0c28\u0c4d\u0c28\u0c02\u0c26\u0c41\u0c28 \u0c35\u0c3e\u0c30\u0c41 \u0c2e\u0c41\u0c02\u0c26\u0c41\u0c17\u0c3e\u0c28\u0c47 \u0c1c\u0c4b\u0c15\u0c4d\u0c2f\u0c02 \u0c1a\u0c47\u0c38\u0c41\u0c15\u0c4b\u0c35\u0c3e\u0c32\u0c28\u0c3f \u0c38\u0c42\u0c1a\u0c3f\u0c38\u0c4d\u0c24\u0c3e\u0c30\u0c41. \u0c2e\u0c40\u0c30\u0c41 \u0c05\u0c02\u0c21\u0c4b\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c38\u0c30\u0c4d\u0c17\u0c2e\u0c41\u0c28\u0c41 \u0c1f\u0c4d\u0c30\u0c3e\u0c15\u0c4d \u0c1a\u0c47\u0c2f\u0c17\u0c32\u0c3f\u0c17\u0c3f\u0c24\u0c47, \u0c05\u0c26\u0c3f \u0c05\u0c28\u0c41\u0c35\u0c48\u0c28\u0c26\u0c3f \u0c2e\u0c30\u0c3f\u0c2f\u0c41 \u0c05\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c2f\u0c35\u0c38\u0c30\u0c02\u0c17\u0c3e \u0c38\u0c02\u0c30\u0c15\u0c4d\u0c37\u0c23 \u0c24\u0c40\u0c38\u0c41\u0c15\u0c4b\u0c35\u0c32\u0c38\u0c3f\u0c28 \u0c05\u0c35\u0c38\u0c30\u0c02 \u0c32\u0c47\u0c26\u0c41. \u0c38\u0c02\u0c24\u0c3e\u0c28\u0c4b\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c2a\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c24\u0c3f \u0c1a\u0c3e\u0c30\u0c4d\u0c1f\u0c3f\u0c02\u0c17\u0c4d \u0c1a\u0c47\u0c38\u0c3f\u0c28 \u0c12\u0c15 \u0c38\u0c02\u0c35\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c38\u0c30\u0c02\u0c32\u0c4b\u0c2a\u0c41 \u0c26\u0c3e\u0c26\u0c3e\u0c2a\u0c41 90% \u0c1c\u0c02\u0c1f\u0c32\u0c41 \u0c06 \u0c35\u0c3f\u0c27\u0c02\u0c17\u0c3e \u0c17\u0c30\u0c4d\u0c2d\u0c02 \u0c26\u0c3e\u0c32\u0c4d\u0c1a\u0c41\u0c24\u0c3e\u0c30\u0c41. \u0c05\u0c2f\u0c3f\u0c24\u0c47, \u0c2e\u0c40\u0c15\u0c41 \u0c05\u0c02\u0c21\u0c4b\u0c24\u0c4d\u0c38\u0c30\u0c4d\u0c17\u0c2e\u0c41 \u0c32\u0c47\u0c15\u0c2a\u0c4b\u0c24\u0c47 \u0c32\u0c47\u0c26\u0c3e \u0c2e\u0c40\u0c15\u0c41 \u0c0f\u0c35\u0c48\u0c28\u0c3e \u0c38\u0c2e\u0c38\u0c4d\u0c2f\u0c32\u0c41 \u0c09\u0c02\u0c1f\u0c47, \u0c2e\u0c41\u0c02\u0c26\u0c41\u0c17\u0c3e\u0c28\u0c47 \u0c2e\u0c40 \u0c35\u0c48\u0c26\u0c4d\u0c2f\u0c41\u0c21\u0c3f\u0c24\u0c4b \u0c1a\u0c30\u0c4d\u0c1a\u0c28\u0c41 \u0c2a\u0c4d\u0c30\u0c3e\u0c30\u0c02\u0c2d\u0c3f\u0c02\u0c1a\u0c02\u0c21\u0c3f \u0c32\u0c47\u0c26\u0c3e \u0c2e\u0c3e \u0c2a\u0c4d\u0c30\u0c47\u0c2e\u0c2e\u0c4d \u0c28\u0c3f\u0c2a\u0c41\u0c23\u0c41\u0c32\u0c32\u0c4b \u0c12\u0c15\u0c30\u0c3f\u0c24\u0c4b \u0c2e\u0c40 \u0c2f\u0c3e\u0c2a\u0c4d \u0c26\u0c4d\u0c35\u0c3e\u0c30\u0c3e \u0c35\u0c30\u0c4d\u0c1a\u0c41\u0c35\u0c32\u0c4d \u0c15\u0c28\u0c4d\u0c38\u0c32\u0c4d\u0c1f\u0c47\u0c37\u0c28\u0c4d \u0c2c\u0c41\u0c15\u0c4d \u0c1a\u0c47\u0c38\u0c41\u0c15\u0c4b\u0c02\u0c21\u0c3f.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-myth-3-if-you-are-using-fertility-charting-and-are-trying-to-avoid-pregnancy-keep-in-mind-you-are-only-considered-potentially-fertile-during-the-six-days-of-your-fertile-window\"><strong>Myth 3: If you are using fertility charting and are trying to AVOID pregnancy, keep in mind you are only considered potentially fertile during the six days of your fertile window.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Truth:<\/strong>&nbsp; If a lot of women used fertility charting successfully to try to conceive, they are more open to using it to try to avoid pregnancy as well. Your main goal is to identify that fertile window where the woman\u2019s body is hospitable to sperm around ovulation and to avoid intercourse during those most fertile days. Your fertile window is technically about six days, but when you\u2019re trying to avoid pregnancy, it\u2019s a whole different mindset and different approach than with fertility charting. You want to identify those most fertile days and be careful on those days because you\u2019re not wanting\u00a0 to make a baby right then. Even with our best at home technologies like the hormone tests, you end up charting more potentially fertile days than when trying to conceive because with variations in the cycle day you may ovulate, you don\u2019t want to catch any days in the beginning edge of your fertile window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2130\/4789\/files\/Frame_14.png?w=1200&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Calendar depicting fertile days\" style=\"width:800px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-myth-4-elevating-your-legs-after-sex-helps-conception\"><strong>Myth 4: Elevating your legs after sex helps conception.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>False:&nbsp;<\/strong>We have no good evidence that sperm need the extra help of us to help them against gravity. Sperm are microscopic. They swim very fast for their size. They are typically deposited right up near the cervix and are made to swim. Having sex changes the PH of the vaginal canal to make it more conducive to sperm for a little while. If you\u2019re in the fertile phase, your own vaginal environment will change to become more hospitable to sperm. Women have this fertile cervical fluid that is good for the sperm to swim in; it is protective and nutritive to it. There\u2019s really nothing that a position can do to add to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-myth-5-how-about-hot-tubs-and-tight-shorts-for-men-are-they-a-problem-for-fertility\"><strong>Myth 5: How about hot tubs and tight shorts for men? Are they a problem for fertility?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>True:&nbsp;<\/strong>This is true because the sperm live in an environment that is very well-regulated temperature wise, so they do much better in a cooler temperature range. Very hot environments can make it more difficult for the sperm to be healthy, and for a man to have a healthy level of sperm that are behaving at the optimal kind of measurement. So tight pants, hot tubs, putting your laptop on your lap, or being a serious cyclist can increase the\u00a0temperature of the testes. All those things can\u00a0impair sperm health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a real wild west out there when it comes to fertility and the Internet. Lots of people will say things that aren\u2019t scientifically backed up and no real study behind the myths, which can be very misleading. You want to maintain skepticism, find some trusted sources, and do your research when coming across new information. It\u2019s hard navigating the fertility world, but you don\u2019t have to go through it alone.\u00a0We also offer Virtual Consultation services directly through the Premom app. If you would like to book a consultation with one of our fertility specialists, they can review your cycle data and offer additional personalized support. You can find additional information regarding these services through the \u201cMore\u201d tab in the Premom app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To download the free Premom Ovulation Tracker app, click&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/premom.onelink.me\/UntM\/fb91a919\">\u0c07\u0c15\u0c4d\u0c15\u0c21<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When are women most fertile?
