My husband and I are actively trying for a baby. We've heard different things about positions to conceive. Is there really a 'best' position that helps?
With PCOS, I realized tracking ovulation was far more important than any specific position. The missionary position is what we mostly stuck to, but don't obsess over it too much. Just focus on your health and cycle tracking.
I can only share that for us, the simple missionary position with a pillow under my hips worked after trying for a few months. It might just be a coincidence, but no harm in trying it out.
Gravity doesn't play as big a role as people think because sperm are highly motivated swimmers! Traditional missionary is great, and you can lie down for 10-15 minutes afterwards. There is no need to do complex positions that make you uncomfortable.
Oh, I remember googling this late at night and feeling so overwhelmed by all the advice. The truth is, just focus on connecting with your partner rather than worrying about the perfect position. Sending you so much love, your time will come.
Any position where you are relaxed is good, honestly there is no medical best position. I was so worried about these things back then, but eventually, it happened. Just don't stress your body, and take care of your health first.
