Ovulation occurs when a female ovary releases an ovum into the fallopian tube. Successful ovulation is necessary in order for people to reproduce. Typically, a woman is at her most fertile time during the few days on either side of her ovulation day. This is because the luteinizing hormone (LH), which is a chemical that triggers the release of an ovum, is at its highest production point. If a couple is trying to achieve conception, intercourse during these few days is important for reproduction purposes.
The timing of intercourse in relation to ovulation is considered to be important factor due to X and Y chromosome carrying sperm having different characteristics. Y-bearing sperm are faster swimmers but have a shorter life-expectancy than X-bearing sperm. So there’s no point in having intercourse with 4-5 days to go until ovulation as it’s likely that there’ll only be X-bearing sperm left. If you want a boy you need to have intercourse as close to ovulation as possible .
