Hi,
TTC, have been using OPK and had a peak fertility result today. So when to dtd? Every day, every other day? Everything I read is different, the SMEP says to do it 3 days in a row and then have a day break and do it again.
Anyone have an experience or ideas...
Thank you x

If you getting a positive opk do it that day and it can't hurt to do it for a few days after the positive aswell just to give yu every chance

Ideally you should be having sex a few days before a positive opk, the day of and the day after. You can dtd every day of your fertile week or every other day, it doesn’t make a difference. My fertility doctor said it’s a misconception that you shouldn’t dtd every day (unless you have issues with sperm)

I'd agree that waiting for a peak is a bad idea. Start the day your period is over and try every other day until you are absolutely sure you're a few days past ovulation. Our FC says this gives you the best chance of having a good quantity (not every day) of fresh (don't leave it too long) sperm at the right time.

Thanks everyone, have been dtd every other day until now so fingers crossed and will continue to get the best chance.
It’s not as easy as you’re lead to believe! X
