Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for your query on Health Care Magic.

Best period for conceiving is Ovulatory period. This is the period which usually occurs on 14th day of period, in which mature ova are released and if this ova comes in contact with sperm then the fertilization occurs.
To increase the chances of fertilization and getting pregnant, intercourse is advised every other day or regularly after 11th day till 21st day of menses period.

Hopefully my answer will be helpful, you may ask further if you have more questions to ask.

Wish you best of health,
Regards,
Dr.Maheshwari
