Male sperm and female sperm
Male sperm (with Y chromosomes) and female sperm (with X chromosomes) have distinctive characteristics. Male sperms are smaller and can swim faster than female sperms but have short lifespan. Female sperms on the other hand are bigger and stronger and have a longer lifespan.

1. You must have sex on the day of your ovulation because male sperms have a short lifespan around one to two days. You can determine the day of your ovulation by charting your cervical mucus. You can use Basal body temperature (BBT) or ovulation product kits (OPK).
2. You (female) must reach orgasm before your partner to produce an alkaline environment in your vagina that is favourable to male sperms.
3. Your partner need to have a high sperm count. You must have sex frequently. Male sperms are faster swimmers than female, the higher the count the more chance the male sperm will reach the ovum first.
