Womens fertility:

On a standard 28-day cycle where day 1 is the first day of her period, a woman would be most fertile around days 12 - 18.

It goes: Days 1 - 7, small chance of conception. 8 - 12, more of a chance, 12 - 18, a high chance. 19 - 23, less of a chance, 23 - 28 a small chance.

When I say 'a small chance', it's actually highly unlikely for a woman to conceive immediately before, during or immediately after her period. However, stranger things happen every day, so don't ever, ever take chances.

Generally, women are most fertile around the middle of the month. (And by that I don't mean the 15th.)

Mens fertility:

Men are fertile while breathing.*



























*This does not mean that holding your breath will render you infertile.

I have heard it be said that there are certain ingredients in life that make sperm more vigilant hence presumably making a man more fertile. Such ingredients may be potassium and vitamin B but I could be completely wrong.

A quick search on Google shows that scientists are just at the tip of the iceberg when it comes to understanding why one male is more fertile than another.

Therefore - we don't know apparently...
