Tracking Cycles @ (NAPSA)—There is no one secret to getting pregnant, but for most couples it takes more than just a romantic evening and the desire to have a baby. In fact, a new study suggests that for healthy couples trying to conceive, timing can be everything. The study tested the effective- ness of the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, the only ovulation monitor on the market to measure two key hormones to identify a woman’s fertile days. During the study, over a third more women conceived using the Monitor than those who were not using the Mon- itor, over two cycles of use. The results indicate that accurately identifying a woman’s mostfertile days can dramatically increase a couple’s chance of conception. “Many women don’t havea per- fectly timed cycle,” said Dr. Nancy Jasper, an Assistant Clinical Pro- fessor of Obstetrics and Gynecol- ogy at New York-Presbyterian Hospital in Manhattan, “and for many women, timing is an issue in trying to conceive. That is why this type of monitoringis ideal.” Quick Fertility Facts: Healthy couples only have a 25 percent chance of conceiving each month. elt takes, on average, six to 18 monthsto get pregnant. eAccurately pinpointing your most fertile period can dramatically increase chances of conception. The Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor is a personal device that accurately pinpoints when a womanis ovulating, and identifies up to six fertile days each month. Always consult a doctor before trying to get pregnant.
