These assessment is according to The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

6. Have sex every other day during the fertile window: A woman’s most fertile period has been identified as the “fertile window” and these period is a 6-day interval. The five days before her ovulation and the day of the ovulation inclusive are the best days to have sex if you are looking to get pregnant.
