Now that women delay their first pregnancy till their early thirthies, they often experience problems with getting pregnant when they are ready for it, especially when they are having a busy life with a job. Knowing when you are fertile, which is in the days before the egg is releases, is important knowledge if you want to become pregnant. The stress related to not getting pregnant makes things worse. Many IVF treatments could be avoided if women had a simple and reliable method for knowing when they are fertile.


Do not know, but AFAIK there are valid methods to meassure & detect the cycle valid, though most are not aware of?


Huh? This is not at all accurate. There are simple and reliable methods, they're used all the time.

I promise you, women understand their cycles quite well and absolutely nobody jumps right to IVF (which costs tens of thousands of dollars) without exhausting cheaper options first.

Also the old canard of "just relax and it will happen" is just that: an old wives tale.
