How Many Days After Your Period Can You Get Pregnant? (Fertility vs Age Explained)
Understanding your fertility window is one of the most important steps in planning a pregnancy. At Marylebone Diagnostic Centre, 73 Baker Street, London W1U 6RD, we offer advanced fertility checks for both men and women.
When Fertility Is High
Your chances of getting pregnant are highest around ovulation – usually 10–14 days after the first day of your period. This is when the ovary releases an egg, which can survive for up to 24 hours. Sperm, however, can live inside the female body for up to five days. This means your fertile window is about five days before ovulation and the day of ovulation itself.
Fertility vs Age
Age plays a major role in fertility.
- Women: Fertility peaks in the early 20s, starts to decline from 30, and drops more sharply after 35.
- Men: Sperm quality declines with age, though more gradually.
This is why an early Fertility MOT in London can be invaluable if you are planning a family.
