Anyone get pregnant around covid?

CD2 and got covid, argh! My cycles tend to be around 26 days long so I might be over it by the time I’m in fertile week but I might not. DH also has it and has had it a few days longer so should finish it sooner.

I’m just looking for stories of anyone who did or didn’t manage to conceive and at what point. I understand I might just be out for this cycle!

Does jt mess up cycles? Also will it mess with DH sperm?

My ovulation (and then AF) was delayed by a week too in the cycle I just finished and was the cycle that I had covid before ovulation was due. I’m now CD1 so no luck for us but my partner had it too and I’ve read many times it can affect sperm for up to 3 months 😫 which is worrying me but doesn’t affect female fertility so much it can just mess up cycles

That’s interesting to know, thank you

Yea I have read studies that it can affect sperm for 2-3 months. Someone asked this question recently on the pregnancy forum and many said they conceived shortly after.

My dh caught covid at the start of this month, a week before I ovulated. We are now onto the next cycle. I have low expectations for this cycle and possibly the next but who knows. We will still try. I currently have a throat infection to add to the mix.

I didn’t catch it, I had it in April at the same time as my miscarriage. So I can’t comment on ovulation delay.
