Weird, random question?
This is an odd question and I'm probably only half serious, but can you technically bd every single day of the month to avoid having to use a OPK or temping? I'm assuming it would get very tiring!! lol. But has anyone ever done this?!?!?!

Re: Weird, random question?
You could but without OPK's and temping you wouldn't be able to tell if you were even Oing. So you might  all month thinking you've covered all your bases when in fact you didn't.
Also, I would think that even for a guy without any issues every day for a month might deplete the reserves and leave him sending in less than ideal swimmers

Re: Weird, random question?
my dr said its perfectly fine to everyday but every other day is perfect. He did say you will deplete his swimmers if you do it more then 1x a day
the benefit to using OPK is knowing when you O'd so you know when you can accurately test. you will also know that you actually O'd

Re: Weird, random question?
I never used OPKs or Temped...I'm too neurotic to try those too....we just BDed alot from about CD10-CD22 just to cover our bases and although I had 2 m/cs, this method got me knocked up 3 times...so it seems to work for us. I feel that since I'm such a nervous type of person, I would rather just have fun BDing than timing it all....everyone is different, try whats best for you.
Good Luck.

Re: Weird, random question?
I think that would weaken the sperm count.. even for someone who doesn't have sperm issues.. everyday is a lot  In my opinion anyway! I mean like consistently every single day...

Re: Weird, random question?
Like others I have also heard that BDing every day can decrease his sperm count. I would think you'd have a better chance doing it every other day this way his sperm count would still be high and they live up to 48 hours. With that the odds of sperm meeting the egg would probably be relatively high.
Although this is all assuming one is positive they are Oing in the first place.

Re: Weird, random question?
You can try... but in all likelihood, you're going to be too tired to get busy when it counts. Yo don't want it to be a chore either. If you want to make sure your bases are covered, BD every other day from AF to AF. This way you've got some time to recoup
