Does Travelling Affect Getting Pregnant?

Getting Pregnant
When you take a long haul flight, it can disrupt your fertility hormones and cause you to ovulate differently and this can change your fertility window. It can cause you to have an early period, a late period or skip a month completely.

Is it OK to travel when trying to conceive?

You can travel by train and roads too. However, travelling by flight is not recommended during the early stages of pregnancy. Even prior to pregnancy, frequent flight trips need to be avoided as the cosmic radiations and the decompression can affect you adversely.

Does travelling affect ovulation?

Although some people may notice a change in their menstrual cycle and ovulation during or after a trip, the majority are unaffected. Travel can certainly agitate and manipulate the timing of ovulation, but so can just about anything that causes a lot of stress.
