While they\u2019re in \u201cstorage\u201d in the testes, sperm are subjected to oxidative stress, which causes their quality to deteriorate after about 2 days.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>More frequent ejaculation is better for conception. Daily ejaculation can improve sperm quality by reducing DNA fragmentation and increasing sperm motility.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The most important factor in figuring out sex frequency while trying to conceive is finding the fertile window, the period before ovulation. For most couples, having sex every 1\u20132 days during the fertile window is enough to achieve pregnancy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For men with low sperm counts, daily intercourse, or even having sex multiple times a day could increase pregnancy chances. Proactively testing your sperm health can help you create an informed conception plan.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I be having sex every day to get pregnant?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most important factor when deciding when to have sex while trying to conceive is finding the female partner\u2019s <strong>fertile window<\/strong>. The fertile window is the five days leading up to ovulation, the period in which pregnancy is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a typical cycle, ovulation happens around day 14 (with \u201cday 1\u201d of the cycle being the first day of menstruation). Many factors can affect the timing of a woman\u2019s fertile window and ovulation. To account for these differences in women\u2019s cycles, traditional advice is to have sex for TTC every other day between day 9 and day 16 or so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-47081\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/vnext\/wp-content\/uploads\/how-often-to-have-sex-while-trying-to-conceive-fertile-window1747243678-345x345.jpeg 345w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em>To get your partner\u2019s personalized fertile window, tracking her cycle or testing for ovulation is key.

One study of over 9,400 semen samples from over 6,000 patients suggests that, for men with low sperm count, peak sperm motility (AKA sperm movement) was reached after just one day of abstinence.<sup>2<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, for these men, having sex multiple times a day may increase pregnancy chances. For most men, ejaculating multiple times reduces sperm count on subsequent ejaculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But a study of 576 men at an infertility and IVF unit examined the semen analysis results of men ejaculating twice in a 1\u20134 hour period. This study found that, in contrast to men with normal fertility, men with low sperm counts had no significant difference in the number of sperm produced in the second ejaculation. The \u201cpooled\u201d samples significantly increased the total sperm count, potentially increasing the chance of pregnancy.<sup>3<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another small study in 2016 had similar results, concluding that, for men with low sperm count, ejaculating twice in one hour produced more normal sperm and better motility in the second ejaculation.<sup>4<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should I practice abstinence before trying to conceive?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people believe men should abstain from ejaculation (either sex or masturbation) before trying to conceive. This myth is based on the idea that abstinence \u201csaved up\u201d sperm, resulting in a higher sperm count during the fertility window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Should you save sperm for ovulation? No. It&#8217;s true that abstinence may lead to higher sperm <em>count<\/em> \u2014 but after a few days without ejaculation, stored sperm can begin to deteriorate in quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sperm are stored in the male reproductive tract, specifically the epididymis, a tightly coiled tube on top of each testicle. While in \u201cstorage,\u201d sperm are continuously exposed to oxidative stress, contributing to deterioration. This exposure can damage sperm membranes and the DNA carried by sperm. Research has found that markers of oxidative stress in semen increase after 5+ days of abstinence, potentially compromising fertility.<strong><sup>5<\/sup><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So how often should a man ejaculate when trying to conceive? Several studies have shown that frequent, even daily ejaculation may actually improve sperm quality, even if it somewhat reduces the volume of semen and the total sperm count per ejaculation. Sperm counts are typically highest after abstaining for 2 days, and sperm quality is negatively affected after 5\u20137 days.<sup>6<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image skip-lazy\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/givelegacy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/abstinence-sperm-quality-2-1-1024x518.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1830\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A 2021 meta-analysis published in the <em>Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics <\/em>examined data from 28 studies involving over 7,000 men and found that although longer abstinence periods (more than 7 days) increased semen volume and sperm count, shorter abstinence periods (1\u20133 days) were associated with improved sperm motility, morphology, and DNA integrity.<sup>7<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One study from 2015 found that men who ejaculated daily for a week had higher-quality sperm at the end of the week than at the beginning, with improved motility (the ability of sperm to swim effectively) and morphology (the shape and structure of sperm).<sup>8<\/sup><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another study found that daily ejaculation for up to two weeks may reduce sperm DNA fragmentation.<sup>9<\/sup> Higher sperm DNA fragmentation is associated with infertility, miscarriage, and certain health conditions in offspring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image skip-lazy\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/givelegacy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/abstinence-sperm-quality-1-1-1024x633.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1829\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The bottom line<\/strong>: Frequent ejaculation throughout the month, whether it\u2019s sex or masturbation, helps ensure that sperm are fresher and have better motility, which may be more important for conception than simply having a higher number of sperm. Just make sure you\u2019re putting all your ejaculatory efforts toward intercourse during that aforementioned fertile window.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What this means for couples trying to conceive<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Based on current research, here are some guidelines for couples who are trying to conceive:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Don&#8217;t worry about <\/strong><strong>\u201csaving\u201d sperm for ovulation<\/strong>. Abstaining for more than a few days prior to your partner\u2019s fertile window won&#8217;t improve your chances of conception, and may actually lower your sperm quality.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Have sex every 1\u20132 days throughout the fertile window<\/strong>, which is typically days 9\u201316 of a person\u2019s cycle. This ensures a steady supply of fresh, high-quality sperm when you&#8217;re most likely to conceive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Every other day is fine for most<\/strong>. If daily sex feels too scheduled or stressful, that\u2019s OK. Studies show almost no difference in pregnancy rates between couples who have sex daily versus every other day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>If you have a low sperm count, have more sex<\/strong>. Having sex daily or even having sex multiple times a day can increase pregnancy chances for men with low sperm count, as \u201cpooled\u201d numbers will be higher.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Be aware of lifestyle factors. <\/strong>Sex frequency while trying to conceive isn&#8217;t the only factor that affects your chances. Research shows that maintaining a healthy weight, reducing alcohol consumption, avoiding tobacco and recreational drugs, managing stress, and getting adequate sleep all contribute significantly to sperm health. Antioxidant-rich foods and supplements (like vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and CoQ10) may also help protect sperm from oxidative damage<strong>.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em>See our <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.givelegacy.com\/guides\/sperm-improvement-guide\/\"><em>Guide to Sperm Quality &amp; Motility Improvement<\/em><\/a><em>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sperm testing can give you a clearer picture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sperm testing is a key part of a trying-to-conceive strategy \u2014 and getting a comprehensive understanding of your sperm health can create an easier path to conception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sperm testing can:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Help you decide <\/strong><strong>how often to have sex while trying to conceive<\/strong><strong>. <\/strong>A normal sperm count could give you the option for a less demanding intercourse schedule, for example.
