Surging know but had s*x yesterday,confused?

Question

Did a ovulation test at 3.03pm today and it picked up that I'm surging, we are having s*x every 2nd day so the sperm have time to build up again. We had s*x yesterday and it picked up the surge today do i wait till tomorrow to try again or do it now. I really don't want to miss this one but if we wait till tomorow what if we miss it?

Answer 1

I would wait till tomorrow. You have the LH Surge and then you ovulate 24 to 36 hours later. So you should be good! Good luck!  

Answer 2

the egg is able to live for on average 24 hours so why not do it in the middle have s*x around 36 hour after the last time you had s*x to be sure . just a thought. but always keep in mind if you had s*x yesterday that alome could get you pregnant since sperm can live for 3-5 days good luck to both us ttc  

Answer 3

I have PCOS, so I can't really tell use OV sticks to see when I'm surging. I have to chart my BBT. My specialist recommends every-other-day-s*x, too, but when I'm at my peaks on my BBT charts, we have s*x everyday through those few time frames. We just have s*x in the am one day and the pm the next. My specialist said there's nothing wrong with it, just the sperm is decreased some, but if your guys count is normal,  it shouldn't be a factor. Hope this helps and good luck! :)

Answer 4

I would do it every day unless he has a low sperm count. Take into concideration that after tou have s*x that it take about 12 hours for the sperm to reach the egg. And your egg lasts 12-24 hours. You don't want to miss the chance when ttc. They say the sperm count isn't going to be too much lower if you have s*x everyday, so its dafe to do it everyday. If he has a low sperm count, then I would wait a little bit, but you don't want to take too long...the more sperm up there and waiting, the better your odds. You also don't know if you picked up the beggining of the surge or the end...so you might have less time than you think. I would just say go at it now, and until after you get your temp rise showing your egg has been released for sure. Good luck
