Summary
Human reproduction is highly inefficient, and that is why it has been widely observed and documented since the ancient civilizations. Fertility has been a main concern along the history. Greeks already described “the best time for fruitful intercourse” [1] understanding that women are not fertile all days of the menstrual cycle. The poor effectiveness of the human species continuity is due to a fair number of factors involved to achieve a successful pregnancy: quality and quantity of sperm, ovum and embryo quality, chromosomal abnormalities, and the capability of the endometrium to harbor the embryo among others. The synchrony between the embryo development and the endometrium maturation must work as perfectly as the gear of a watch.
