Tracking Ovulation

When you are trying to get pregnant, Tracking Ovulation can be one of the most important things that you can do for many different reasons.
First, it helps you to understand your cycles - Are you ovulating? When do you ovulate? How long are your cycles? This is all very important information to know when you are trying to get pregnant as quickly as possible. If you do decide to go to a Fertility Doctor in the future, he/she is going to want to know all about your cycles. It will really help, and speed up the process, to be able to pull out your charts and show your doctor on the spot.
Second, if you start to chart and understand your cycles better, you might never have to go to a Fertility Doctor to begin with. Tracking Ovulation will make it so that you can pinpoint your exact time of ovulation. Since an egg is only alive and can only be fertilized from 8 hours to 24 hours it makes sense that it would be very important that fresh sperm is waiting there to fertilize it at the exact moment that it needs to be.
If you look at the image below, you will see how the hormones work during the menstrual cycle. It is actually a very delicate process and there has to be just the right amount of hormones at just the right time in the cycle for everything to work right. One of the most important things that you can do to get pregnant quicker is to be certain that you have an accurate method of timing ovulation.
