To use the Billings Ovulation Method, also known as the Basic Infertility Pattern, to get pregnant a woman should note how her vaginal discharge is every day and have intercourse on days when there is greater vaginal discharge.
In these days, where the woman feels that her vulva is naturally wet during the day, there is the fertile time that allows the sperm to enter the mature ovum so that it is fertilized, thus initiating the pregnancy.
Thus, to use the Billing or Basic infertility pattern it is important to know the female reproductive system and all of its changes.
How to Start Using the Billings Ovulation Method
To start using this method one should be left without any intimate contact for 2 weeks and start writing down every night how is your vaginal discharge. There is no need to start using this method during menstruation, although this is easier for some women.
You can observe this secretion during the day while doing the housework, working or studying, just check if the external region of the vagina, the vulva, is completely dry, dry or wet whenever you use the toilet paper to clean after urinating or defecate. You may also notice how your vaginal discharge is when you walk or exercise.
During the first month, while learning to use the Billings method, it is important not to have intimate contact, not to insert fingers into the vagina, or to perform any internal examination such as the pap smear because they can cause changes in the cells of the female intimate region, making it difficult the interpretation of vaginal dryness.
You should use the following notes:
- State of vaginal dryness: dry, wet or slippery
- Red color: for days of menstruation or bleeding of spoting
- Green color: for days you are dry
- Yellow color: for days when it is slightly wet
- Baby: for the most fertile days, where there is feeling very wet or slippery.
You should also note every day that you have sex.
What is the best day to get pregnant using this method?
The best days to get pregnant are those where the vulva starts to get wet and slippery. The third day of wet sensation is the best day to get pregnant, because it is when the egg is mature and the whole intimate region is ready to receive the sperm, increasing the chances of getting pregnant.
Having sex without a condom or any other barrier method during the days when the vulva is wet and slippery should result in pregnancy.
If you are having difficulty getting pregnant, see what the possible causes are.
