We are trying since 3 months and someone told me ki you should lie down for some time after, to help conceive. Is that even true and for how long? Thoda confused with all this advice floating around. Anyone knows the right thing?
Oh, I totally get why you'd ask this, the 'trying to conceive' phase can make you anxious about every little thing. I used to worry about everything too. But biologically, once sperm is inside, it doesn't need to 'stay' there for a specific time. Just lying down for 10-15 mins after is often suggested, but not strictly necessary. Your body is smart.
I felt so confused about all these details when we were trying! Honestly, nobody tells you these things. We just tried to have intercourse around my fertile window. Don't stress too much about the exact hours, just focus on ovulation tracking.
This isn't something I've heard much about in terms of specific 'hours'. If you're trying to conceive and have concerns about the process, it's really best to talk to a gynac. They can give you accurate, personalized advice and clear up any doubts. Don't rely on random advice for such important things.
There isn't really a 'number of hours' you need to keep sperm inside, if that's what you mean. The main thing is timing intercourse around your ovulation. Once the sperm is in, it does its job. Focus on enjoying the process and not overthinking it too much! Good luck.
