Introduction
Not getting pregnant despite accurately timing intercourse with ovulation may be caused by physiological or pathological factors, such as poor egg quality or poor sperm quality, which require targeted treatment. A detailed analysis is as follows: Pregnancy itself occurs only with a certain probability; conception does not happen every time intercourse occurs during the ovulation period, as pregnancy involves a series of complex physiological processes.
Even when ovulation is accurately predicted, failure to achieve pregnancy may be caused by physiological or pathological factors, such as poor egg quality, poor sperm quality, etc. Targeted treatments are required. The specific analysis is as follows:
I. Physiological Factors
Pregnancy itself occurs only with a certain probability; conception does not happen every time intercourse takes place during the ovulation period. Pregnancy involves a series of complex physiological processes, and any disruption in these steps may lead to difficulty conceiving. Therefore, this is a normal physiological phenomenon and there is no need for excessive concern. However, if pregnancy is not achieved after an extended period, it is recommended that both partners visit a hospital for evaluation.
II. Pathological Factors
1. Poor Egg Quality
Poor ovarian follicle development in women may result in low-quality eggs, making fertilization by sperm more difficult and thus leading to failed conception. Treatment under a doctor's guidance may include medications such as dydrogesterone tablets or progesterone capsules.
2. Poor Sperm Quality
Poor sperm quality may result from men's unhealthy daily habits, such as smoking or staying up late. Low-quality sperm have reduced ability to fertilize eggs, which can lead to failure in conception. Under medical supervision, supplements such as vitamin B tablets or vitamin E capsules may be prescribed for treatment.
In addition to the above, other conditions such as thin endometrium, pelvic inflammatory disease, asthenozoospermia, or infertility may also cause failure to conceive despite accurate ovulation tracking. It is advisable to seek timely medical consultation to avoid adverse impacts on normal fertility.
