Whether to have a boy or a girl has always been a point of contention in many families. However, scientific research shows that having more sex during ovulation may increase your chances of having a boy. So, what is ovulation? How to determine it? Next, we will introduce it in detail.

Ovulation refers to the time when a woman’s egg is released from the ovary and enters the fallopian tube. According to research by scientists, the number of days a woman ovulates is usually about 14 days. During this time, a woman's menstrual cycle may change, but symptoms such as increased sexual desire, breast swelling, blood coagulation, etc. usually appear around ovulation.

How to determine ovulation?

Methods for determining ovulation vary from person to person, but here are some common methods:

1. Measure basal body temperature: Women can record body temperature changes by measuring their body temperature when they wake up every morning. If the body temperature gradually rises before ovulation and gradually drops after ovulation, this may mean that a woman is ovulating.

2. Observe sexual desire: Women’s sexual desire may increase during ovulation, which is a normal physiological reaction. Therefore, women can observe changes in their sexual desire and note if they feel anything special.

3. Use a pregnancy test: If a woman is not pregnant, she can use a pregnancy test to test whether she is ovulating.

4. Measure blood HCG: If a woman is pregnant, she can use blood HCG to test whether she is ovulating.

Although these methods can help women determine when they are ovulating, they are not suitable for all women. In addition, these methods may also be affected by other factors, such as emotions, environment, etc.

Having a boy or a girl is determined by genes, not by date. Therefore, no matter when a woman begins sexual intercourse, as long as her menstrual cycle is normal, you can calculate her ovulation period and try to increase your chances of having a boy. However, no matter what the outcome is, we should respect everyone's choice and wish all families happiness.
