1. If you conceive during the daytime with keeping the lights on, then the chances of getting pregnant are at high rate-

Well, it is proven that in the morning sperm levels are at a higher rate but keeping lights on doesn’t make any difference. It doesn’t have any logical background. You can do it whenever you wish to do but for that, you need not have to keep any specific thing on or off.

2. In order to conceive, you should make sure that you are having sex every day-

It is not written anywhere that having sex every day will help you in conceiving at a faster pace. It is likely to lead to frustration and stress to both of them. To conceive, you need to have sex during your fertile window i.e. in the fertile days or every alternate day.

3. It is said that if you are ovulating, then there will be no obstacle for you in getting pregnant-

Yes! It is true that for conceiving, ovulation is very important. However, pregnancy is not only dependent on this one factor. The way to the egg isn’t clear i.e. if your fallopian tubes get blocked then pregnancy will not take place. Pregnancy is not always related to the women fertility.

4. You are not able to conceive at the age of 40 or 40 plus-

Well, this is not at all true. It is absolutely possible to get pregnant in your 40s or even after that also. Well, there will be a higher risk of miscarriage and increase of infertility. You may take a little longer time than compared to other women. So, age doesn’t matter much.

5. If you have intercourse during your menstruation days, you won’t be able to get pregnant-

Your pregnancy is not directly linked with your menstruation. Whether you are getting pregnant or not is completely dependent on your ovulation. So, it is completely ok to have it when you are chumming. It won’t affect your pregnancy.

6. It is often said that your lifestyle habits or dietary habits do not matter when you are trying to conceive-

However, this is completely a false statement. As your eating habits and other habits matter not only during pregnancy but also during days, when you are trying to conceive. Smoking is another biggest threat to both male and female. Drinking also has adverse effects.
