Women: How To Find Out If You Are Fertile In 12 Steps

Finding out if you are fertile is important so if there
is a problem it can be addressed as soon as
possible. Here is a quick 12-Step program to assess
your fertility.
1.Check HIS sperm count first. Testing his
sperm count should be the very first test done for
fertility. Up to 50% of infertile couples have a male
problem and the sperm count is easy and ensures
him an orgasm too. When in doubt, the female may
not be the one responsible for the fertility problems.
The male sperm count should be tested before she
gets tested to determine whether the problem lies
with a lower sperm count.
2.Track menstrual cycles . The cycle of your
period is the best way to establish fertile times. If
the cycle is regular, the ovulation time frame
should generally be the same each month.
3.Determine ovulation cycle. Ovulation could
occur on the 10th, 12th or 14th day after the first
day of the menstrual cycle. Using a calendar, track
your ovulation and have sex during the most fertile
times.
4.Track lunar fertility cycles. The lunar fertility
cycle is based on the moon phase at the time of
your birth. Using an online lunar fertility phase
calculator, the moon phase can be determined in
the future. The lunar fertility day will be the same
each month making conception all the easier.
5.Observe cervical mucus. Cervical mucus can
determine when the female is most fertile. By
placing the finger into the vagina, the mucus can
be observed. If the mucus looks like egg whites, the
time to have sex is now.
6.Have ovarian reserve testing. Ovarian
reserve testing determines how many eggs are left
to be released. This test can help to determine how
fertile the female is and whether or not she will be
able to conceive using her own eggs. If the ovarian
reserve is too low for conception, an egg donor can
be used in order to conceive.
7.Have FSH tested. FSH stands for follicle
stimulating hormone. This test will determine if the
FSH is being secreted in the proper amounts to
support conception. Without the proper levels of
FSH, the follicle may not be releasing eggs at the
right time or at all.
8.Have estradiol tested. Estradiol is closely related
to estrogen. This hormone regulates the
reproductive cycle. If estradiol levels are low, the
chance of conception is also low.
9.Have LH tested. LH stands for luteinizing
hormone. When the reproductive phase begins
there is a sharp incline in the LH. This is referred to
as the LH surge and the test is with an OPK, and
ovulation predictor kit.
10.Have prolactin tested. Female hormones
need to be in balance in order for fertility to be
optimal. Prolactin is one of the female hormones
that works with other hormones to optimize
fertility. Prolactin is most commonly known as the
hormone that stimulates milk production, but it
also works to aid in fertility.
11.Have thyroid function tested. The thyroid
gland can help or hinder fertility. If the gland if
overproducing, the chance of miscarriage is higher.
12.Have integrin tested. Integrin is responsible
for helping the fertilized egg to attach to the uterus.
If the integrin level is lower than normal, the egg
may be fertilizing but not attaching to the uterus
creating a viable pregnancy. There are therapies
that can be used to increase integrin levels and help
the egg to attach properly.

.Unusual: A Baby Gaga waitress serves the breast milk cocktail in the Icecreamists shop, Covent Garden When a well-stocked ice cream parlour says they sell every flavour, there are usually limits. But one restaurant in London is selling breast milk ice cream which is being served to customers in a cocktail glass. Icecreamists, based in Covent Garden, have named the £14 dish Baby Gaga. Victoria Hiley, 35, from Leeds provided the first 30 fluid ounces of milk which was enough to make the first 50 servings. But the company are looking for more women to provide breast milk - and are providing £15 for every ten ounces extracted using breast pumps. The recipe blends breast milk with Madagascan vanilla pods and lemon zest, which is then freshly churned into ice cream. A costumed Baby Gaga waitress serves the ice cream in a martini glass filled with the breast milk ice cream mix. Liquid nitrogen is then poured into the glass through a syringe and it is served with a rus...
