Intro

If you’ve been staring at ovulation strips, waiting for the “perfect day,” and wondering why pregnancy still isn’t happening—you’re probably timing sex wrong.

The truth is, your fertile window isn’t just one day, and ovulation predictor kits (OPKs) or basal body temperature (BBT) charts don’t tell the whole story. In fact, relying on them alone might mean you’re missing your best chances.

Hi, I’m Dr. Aumatma—a licensed Naturopathic Doctor for over 15 years, with board certification in Naturopathic Endocrinology. I’m the creator of The Restorative Fertility Method and host of the Egg Meets Sperm Podcast, which ranks in the top 5% globally.

I’ve had the honor of becoming a 2-time best-selling author with my books Fertility Secrets and (in)Fertility: Struggles, Secrets, & Successes. Over the years, I’ve been recognized with awards such as Best Naturopathic Medicine Doctor (2015, 2020), Top Women in Medicine Doctor (2020, 2021), and was inducted into the Berkeley Hall of Fame in 2022.

I’ve shared my expertise on over 100 podcasts, speaking on fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum, and have been featured as a holistic fertility expert on ABC, FOX, CBS, KTLA, MindBodyGreen, and The Bump.

Through the years, I’ve trained hundreds of practitioners globally in holistic fertility care, and many of them have gone on to become certified in my Fertile Foundations™ system. I also founded Madre Fertility, where we offer a free Smart Fertility Analysis to help people uncover their fertility blocks and map out a personalized path to conception.

In addition to my clinical work, I serve as a Medical Advisor for Mira Fertility, Element, and Feminade—three incredible innovators in fertility and women’s health.

In this comprehensive fertility timing guide, we’ll cover:

🔹 Conception Timing Science — How sperm survival and egg lifespan create a 6-day fertile window

🔹 Ovulation vs. LH Surges — Why a positive OPK doesn’t mean “go time” yet

🔹 Implantation Window — The critical 6–10 days post-ovulation that can make or break pregnancy success

🔹 Cycle Optimization — Cervical mucus, sex schedules, lifestyle changes, and exactly what to skip

🔹 Advanced Cases — What to do if you have irregular cycles, PCOS, short luteal phases, or male factor issues

🌟 PLUS: I’ll give you a practical two-week TTC blueprint—step-by-step instructions for when to test, when to try, and how often—so you can stop guessing and start leading the egg.

This video is especially for you if:

✔ You’ve been TTC for months with no luck

✔ You’re tired of stressful “deadline sex”

✔ You want to understand BOTH conception and implantation for higher pregnancy success

💡 Fertility takes two—and when you work with your biology instead of against it, you give yourself the best chance at a healthy pregnancy.

📌 Make sure you watch until the end for the sample cycle timing plan you can start using right away.
