This May Be the Best Time To Get Pregnant

Written By Kristen Fischer of Motherly Magazine

If you’re in the trying to conceive (TTC) club, you know that timing can be well, kind of everything. Curious about the best time of day to get pregnant—not just the best time of month? Researchers are one step ahead of you.

Many couples focus on the time of the month when trying to get pregnant. But the time of day could be just as important—if not more so.

Dr. Jane Frederick of HRC Fertility explains “What factors affect men’s sperm?” including why time of day has become a focus.  She also discusses the role in which genetics play in the conception process.  Dr. Frederick is quoted as saying “Studies have shown that the genetic makeup of clock genes are associated with semen parameters and the risk of infertility.”

In other words, “different times of the day might affect total sperm count, sperm motility or normal morphology in men, and subsequently impact their fertility,” Frederick tells Motherly.
