Trying to conceive

My ovulation day is today apparently on the Femometer app. I've had sex two days before, on Monday and it's Wednesday today. This is a casual partner.

I've tried so many times to have sex 2-3 days leading to ovulation but it has never worked.
My cycle isn't always clockwork, I don't always ovulate on day 14.
I once missed my period for 2 months and got it all of a sudden. I thought I was pregnant so was disappointed when I ended up getting my period.
Its hard for me which I'm not happy about.

So would you say having sex 2-3 days before ovulation is okay to conceive? Apparently sperm lasts upto 5 days in your system which I don't believe at all. I think more like 2 days

On the pregnancy forum I've seen lots of people saying they concieved 4, 5 & 6 days before ovulation, so its definitely possible!
I would get some opks though as apps just workout ovulation on a guess from average cycles. Wasn't until I starting using them that I realised my app was giving me an incorrect fertile window
