Sexual Frequency: Sperm Meets Egg Plan

This plan can help many over 40 women:

• If you don't have fertile-quality cervical mucus, the sperm may only last 2 hours.
• Older men sometimes can't perform as often.
• Older men sometimes have lower sperm counts.
• The sperm needs to be there, waiting, before your egg is released. So you need to start "trying" before your OPK turns positive.
• Regular sex increases his testosterone, his sperm count, and your cervical mucus and helps ramp up your hormones, especially estrogen - getting everything working well.

The Plan - Short Version:
• "Try" every other night starting Day 8
• Buy 10 ovulation predictor kit sticks
• Begin ovulation testing on Day 10
• When test is positive, "try" that night, plus two additional nights in a row
• Skip one night, then do one last "try"
• Take a home pregnancy test 15 days after your ovulation test was positive, if your period has not begun
• If your ovulation test never goes positive, continue "trying" every other night until Day 35, then do a pregnancy test if your period has not begun.

How Sexual Frequency Affects a Woman's Sexual Responsiveness, Fertility, and Health

• The less often a woman has sex, the less she will want sex, the less she will enjoy sex, and the more difficult it will be for her to become aroused and climax.

• Women who had sex two or more times a week had the most regular cycles, women who had sex once a week were slightly less regular, celibate women were still less regular, and women who had sporadic sex, or sex less than once a week, had the most irregular cycles. A variety of hormonal differences were seen, including higher estrogen levels in the women who had regular sex.

• The benefits of the hormonal changes in those having intercourse at least twice a week include: better fertility, stronger bones, better cardiovascular health, less depression, lower incidence of fibrocystic breast disease and uterine cancer, and a decrease in menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes and depression.
