Brief Answer:
K-Y jelly is best while you are ttc.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Best lubricant while you are trying to conceive, is WATER based lubricant like (KY jelly). It has NO adverse reaction and should be used before intimacy.

Natural lubricant (vaginal) can be enhanced by foreplay (kissing, fondling, cuddling etc) and you should spent more time on it.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and take care yourself.

Dr S Patra

Brief Answer:
Normal report. Try naturally to conceive.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for follow up query.

According to WHO 2010 guideline, sperm morphology should be more than 4%. In this case, it is suggestive of NORMAL semen report.

Yes, you can try to conceive naturally. You should involve unprotected sex in between 11th to 19th day of regular 28-30 days cycle. Use ovulation prediction kit in the middle of cycle.

Hope, I have answered your query. Kindly, close the discussion.

All the best and good luck.

I used to have regular 25-30 day cycles since January of this year they are noe 35-40 day cycles hence all the testing. What do you think is wrong will a clear blue fertility monitor help. Pco is ruled out due to LH being 1.7

Brief Answer:
Need progesterone supplement from D16 to D25.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for update.

I suggest to take Progesterone supplement from D16 to D25 to get regular period as earlier. It will be more worthwhile. Kindly, consult with doctor for prescription.

Take LOW carbohydrate diet, do regular exercise and avoid mental stress. On regular period, you can use clear blue fertility test to predict ovulation.

Hope, it helps for you. Good luck.
