Answer:
Since your period started yesterday (21st December), you are now in a very good position to plan conception this cycle. What you do from today onward matters a lot.
Below is a clear, day-by-day TTC guide for this cycle 👇

Avoid cold drinks, excessive sugar, and alcohol.
2. From Day 6–9 (After your period stops)
Goal: Egg development
Take / Eat

What to do
Have s*x every other day or daily during this window
Best days: Day 12, 14, and 16
