Medical basis
The data the computers use to differentiate between fertile and infertile days are based on a few biological facts underlying the female monthly cycle.
- Every woman ovulates only once in each cycle. An egg will grow in the right ovary one month and in the left one the next month, always alternating.
- After ovulation, the egg can be fertilized for a maximum of 18 hours.
- On the rare occasion of two or more ovulations, they will occur within 24 hours. The maximum possible timeframe for fertilization after ovulation can therefore be accurately determined.
- The same is true for the time before ovulation: after intercourse, male sperm will remain active and fertile in the female body for a maximum of 120 hours (five days).
- This means that there are six days in every cycle when a woman can get pregnant: five days before ovulation and on the day she ovulates.
This is the first fertility monitor which focuses on the health and wellbeing of women: Without stressful or even harmful intervention in your body’s natural processes, the fertility computers of Valley-Electronics determine your personal cycle and forecast your fertile and infertile days with maximum accuracy.
