Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    The best time to have sex while trying to conceive is:

    • A.

      On the day you ovulate

    • B.

      On the days right before you ovulate

    • C.

      On the days right after you ovulate

    • D.

      After dinner and before dessert

    Correct Answer
    B. On the days right before you ovulate
    Explanation
    Having sex on the days right before ovulation is considered the best time to conceive because sperm can survive in the female reproductive system for up to five days, while the egg is only viable for around 24 hours after ovulation. By having intercourse before ovulation, there is a higher chance of sperm being present and ready to fertilize the egg when it is released.

    BFP stands for:

    • A.

      Big Fat Positive

    • B.

      Bentillus follicular pregnancy

    • C.

      Beta factor (prenatal variety)

    Correct Answer
    A. Big Fat Positive
    Explanation
    BFP stands for "Big Fat Positive." This term is commonly used in the context of pregnancy tests. When a woman takes a pregnancy test and it shows a positive result, indicating that she is pregnant, it is often referred to as a "Big Fat Positive." This term is used humorously to convey excitement and joy about the pregnancy.

    A “chemical pregnancy” refers to:

    • A.

      A pregnancy that occurs as the result of chemical intervention (i.e. fertility drugs such as Clomid)

    • B.

      An early miscarriage

    • C.

      A pregnancy that is precipitated during a state of inebriation or while under the influence of drugs

    • D.

      A false negative result on a pregnancy test

    Correct Answer
    B. An early miscarriage
    Explanation
    An early miscarriage is referred to as a "chemical pregnancy." This term is used to describe a pregnancy that is detected by a pregnancy test but ends shortly after implantation, often before the woman even realizes she is pregnant. It is called a chemical pregnancy because it is only detected through the presence of chemicals (hormones) in the woman's body and does not progress to a visible pregnancy.

    The luteal phase refers to:

    • A.

      The part of the cycle that starts at ovulation and ends at menses

    • B.

      A woman’s period of maximum ovarian reserve and egg quality

    • C.

      The part of the cycle where estrogen and progesterone levels intersect

    Correct Answer
    A. The part of the cycle that starts at ovulation and ends at menses
    Explanation
    The luteal phase refers to the part of the menstrual cycle that starts at ovulation and ends at menses. During this phase, the ruptured follicle from which the egg was released forms a structure called the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone. This hormone helps prepare the uterus for possible implantation of a fertilized egg. If fertilization does not occur, the corpus luteum degenerates, leading to a decrease in progesterone levels and shedding of the uterine lining, resulting in menstruation. Therefore, the luteal phase is directly associated with the time between ovulation and the start of the next menstrual period.

    The sexual position that is considered most ideal for trying to conceive is:

    • A.

      The missionary position (man on top)

    • B.

      The man entering from behind the woman (“doggy” style)

    • C.

      Woman on top

    • D.

      Reverse cowgirl (double inverted)

    Correct Answer
    A. The missionary position (man on top)
    Explanation
    The missionary position is considered the most ideal for trying to conceive because it allows for deep penetration, which can facilitate the deposit of sperm closer to the cervix. This position also allows for better control and guidance of the penis towards the cervix, increasing the chances of fertilization. Additionally, the force of gravity can help the sperm travel towards the egg more easily in this position.

    The 1st day of your cycle starts when:

    • A.

      The day after you ovulate

    • B.

      The first day of bleeding

    • C.

      The first day of spotting

    • D.

      The last day of your menses

    Correct Answer
    A. The day after you ovulate
    Explanation
    The 1st day of your cycle starts the day after you ovulate because ovulation marks the release of an egg from the ovary, which is a key event in the menstrual cycle. After ovulation, the egg can be fertilized by sperm, leading to pregnancy. Therefore, the day after ovulation is considered the beginning of a new menstrual cycle.

    The consistency of fertile cervical mucus tends to be:

    • A.

      Moist and Creamy

    • B.

      Slippery and stretchy (like egg whites)

    • C.

      Dry and crumbly

    • D.

      Sticky and tacky

    Correct Answer
    B. Slippery and stretchy (like egg whites)
    Explanation
    During the menstrual cycle, the consistency of cervical mucus changes. When a woman is most fertile, usually around ovulation, the cervical mucus becomes slippery and stretchy, similar to the consistency of egg whites. This type of mucus facilitates the movement of sperm through the cervix and into the uterus, increasing the chances of fertilization. Therefore, the slippery and stretchy consistency of cervical mucus is an indicator of fertility.

    What can you detect a spike of right before you ovulate to predict your fertile window?

    • A.

      Estrogen and Progesterone

    • B.

      Progesterone and LH (Luteinizing Hormone)

    • C.

      Estrogen and LH (Luteinizing Hormone)

    • D.

      Estrogen and hCG

    Correct Answer
    C. Estrogen and LH (Luteinizing Hormone)
    Explanation
    Estrogen and LH (Luteinizing Hormone) are the hormones that can be detected in a spike right before ovulation. Estrogen levels increase as the follicles in the ovaries mature, and LH levels surge just before ovulation to trigger the release of the mature egg. By tracking the levels of these hormones, women can predict their fertile window, which is the time when they are most likely to conceive.

    Which may be an early sign you are pregnant:

    • A.

      A raised basal body temperature when your period is due

    • B.

      Sore breasts

    • C.

      Nausea

    • D.

      All of the above

    • E.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    D. All of the above
    Explanation
    All of the above may be early signs of pregnancy. A raised basal body temperature when your period is due can indicate that you have conceived. Sore breasts can be a result of hormonal changes in the body during early pregnancy. Nausea, commonly known as morning sickness, is another common symptom experienced by pregnant women. Therefore, if a person is experiencing any or all of these symptoms, it could be an indication that they are pregnant.

    When TTC, when should you begin taking prenatal vitamins:

    • A.

      Upon confirming pregnancy

    • B.

      During Nursing

    • C.

      When you begin trying to conceive

    • D.

      Before you conceive, during pregnancy and through nursing

    Correct Answer
    D. Before you conceive, during pregnancy and through nursing
    Explanation
    It is recommended to start taking prenatal vitamins before conceiving, during pregnancy, and through nursing. Prenatal vitamins contain essential nutrients like folic acid, iron, and calcium that are important for the healthy development of the baby. By starting to take prenatal vitamins before conceiving, it ensures that the body has enough nutrients to support the early stages of pregnancy. Continuing to take them during pregnancy and nursing helps to meet the increased nutritional needs of both the mother and the baby.
