    This study reveals the fertile window can last up to 12 days, impacting conception probability. Woman's reproductive history is the main factor influencing fecundability.

    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive biology
    • Human fertility studies
    • Gynecology

    Background:

    • Understanding the fertile window is crucial for family planning and fertility treatments.
    • Previous estimates of the fertile window and conception probability varied.
    • A comprehensive dataset was needed to refine these estimates.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the precise length and timing of the fertile window.
    • To analyze daily conception probability patterns.
    • To explore the relationship between intercourse timing and fecundability.

    Main Methods:

    • Collected data from 7017 menstrual cycles across 881 women.
    • Identified ovulation day using basal body temperature and mucus symptoms.
    • Calculated daily fecundability based on intercourse timing relative to ovulation.

    Main Results:

    • The fertile window was identified as potentially lasting up to 12 days.
    • Daily conception probability patterns were detailed.
    • Univariate analysis showed a significant correlation between fecundability and the woman's reproductive history.

    Conclusions:

    • The study provides a more accurate understanding of the fertile window and conception probabilities.
    • Reproductive history is a key determinant of a woman's fecundability.
    • Findings can inform fertility awareness methods and reproductive health counseling.
