Some people believe that some sex positions can improve the chances of pregnancy, assist the sperm to approach the egg in the fallopian tube, and may also affect the conceived baby gender.
The two sex styles are considered ideal for depositing sperm at the near opening point of the cervix.
- Aka doggie style (From behind)
- Missionary style (Male partner on the top)
The myth is helping the sperm to reach the egg easily. The major factor of these positions is the deep penetration of the penis and ejaculation of the sperm near the cervix; which will be a chance for sperm to take advantage of gravity force on the journey to fertilize the egg.
Intercourse and Sleeping Positions
After intercourse sleeping on the back, right side or left side for about 10 to 15 minutes having a pillow under hip will give an opportunity to the sperm swim easily to the cervix using gravity help. Putting the legs up a wall up to 10 to 15 minutes is another popular position assisting the sperm to dig into the fallopian tube using gravity power.
Not to do: women are to avoid douching and no need to wash the vagina; the vagina has its own secretions to fight against harmful bacteria and infections. Immediately after intercourse, high-impact exercises are also be avoided, as these may disturb the movement of sperm.
The researches are available in favor of and also against these methods. It’s completely up to you whether want to take advantage of these methods or not.
