Joy, I wish I remember where I read it, but as I mentioned in earlier
post, I saw a study elsewhere in which out of two sets of 100 couples,
one group had sex 3 times a week and 30% got pregnant in one month. The
other group had sex every day and 70% got pregnant in one month. Does
anyone else know anything about this study or can they comment on it?
