So when opk says high fertlity or peak.
Brief Answer:
peak on opk
Detailed Answer:
When opk says peak then do sex as soon as possible and take a note of the following points -
1) try to keep a pillow beneath your buttocks after sex so that gravitational force keeps the semen inside your vagina for a longer time.
2) should not get up for at least 20-25 minutes
3) try conventional position of sex female lying down on bed
4) maximum chances of conception are in day 10-18 of the cycle in case you have regular cycles.
I hope these measures will help you in conception in near future.
I basically practice infertility so in case you have any questions in future I will be glad to help.
