This thermometer will record changes in body temperature when she issued a seed or egg cell. If the seed out, usually thermometer will record the temperature rise of as much as 0.2 degrees celsius for 10 days. But if the woman does not experience changes in body temperature of the fertile period, means the woman is not fertile.

CALCULATION OF THE FERTILE

There are several methods used to calculate a woman's fertile period. The most effective method is to use a different approach is usually an indicator of temperature changes combined with changes in cervical mucus. These indicators have been scientifically proven to reflect changes in hormonal and fertility status accurately.

Calculation of fertile period using the calendar system is a way of natural or nature that is used only when a woman has regular menstrual cycles. The calculation is based during the fertile time ovulation occurs on day 14 of the menstrual period to come and minus 2 days because sperm can live for 48 hours after ejaculation and added two days for the egg can live 24 hours after ovulation.

Lack of knowledge about reproductive fertility, especially in women, often associated with various diseases, whereas the level of fertility every person is different - different depending on physical condition and mental. 

Infertility reproduction tools often also associated with various illnesses suffered by one of the couples who have it, of which 40% are caused by a female infertility factor while the other 40% because of man, and the remaining 20% ​​for both.

But basically the reproduction infertility in women caused by:

Hormonal dysfunction

Blockage of the Fallopian tubes

Endometriosis.

Ovary cyst

Poor sperm motility.

Therefore, women of childbearing age must conduct a medical examination (examination of the genitalia), although it has a menstrual cycle / menstrual regularly. It is not a sign that she was fertile. This means that WUS must be healthy free from venereal disease. Before marriage WUS should conduct a medical examination to determine the condition of their reproductive organs are functioning properly. By conducting a medical examination will prevent genital disease. Female genitalia are very in touch with the outside world through the hole intercourse, cervical channel, cavity / space of the uterus. Oviduct (fallopian tubes) which empties into the abdominal space. Because of this direct relationship female genital infection caused by an unhealthy sexual relationship, so that infection can be sustained exterior walking up to the abdomen in the form of infection of the lining of the abdominal wall or also called peritonitis.

Defense system of the female genitals are pretty good that the acid system, usually the other defense systems by way of the mucus that is always flowing outward causing bacteria are discarded in the form of menstruation, the defense system is very weak, so the infection is often dammed and surely spread in all directions that lead to sudden and chronic infections.

FERTILE MALE AGE

What is the age for a man considered too old to have children? Do men also have restrictions as well as women in terms of fertility?

In contrast to women, men do not have a "deadline" to have children. Although the quality, quantity, and movement of sperm dropped dramatically at the age of 50 years. Male fertility will be reduced every decade, especially after he was aged over 35 years. The number of sperm aged 50-80 years compared to only 75 percent of men aged 20-50 years.

Swimming ability of sperm was also reduced with age. Sperm mobility is best at age 25 years and lowest in the age of 55 years. From the age of 35-55 years, sperm mobility is reduced to 54 percent, no matter how much he had sex.

However, that should be of concern is the quality of sperm when a man turns the age of 50 years. In case of egg fertilization in this age, it is likely that children born will have birth defects or health problems.

So far scientific research shows, the older the age of the father as a child, the greater the risk of having a child with Down syndrome, schizophrenia, autism, and other genetic diseases. The risk of the mother to have a miscarriage is also higher.

In other words, although male fertility is not affected as women age, there are factors that decrease the quality of health of babies will be born.
