It might seem obvious, but consistent and well-timed sexual intercourse is the most direct strategy to boost baby-making power. For women, regular sex (2-3 times a week, or more frequently around ovulation) can actually contribute to more predictable menstrual cycles, possibly due to hormonal signals exchanged during intercourse. For men, regular ejaculation helps ensure a fresh supply of healthy sperm. Avoid "saving up" sperm, as it can lead to poorer quality. Focus on intimacy and enjoyment, especially within the identified fertile window.

22. Opt for Fertility-Friendly Lubricants (or None at All)

Many common personal lubricants, even water-based ones, can create a hostile environment for sperm. Their pH levels, osmolarity, and certain ingredients can be spermicidal or significantly impede sperm motility, making it harder for them to reach the egg. Even some natural alternatives like olive oil are not recommended as they can form a barrier. If lubrication is needed, specifically choose "fertility-friendly" lubricants (often labeled as "sperm-friendly" or "conception-friendly") designed to mimic natural fertile cervical fluid, ensuring sperm can move freely.
