Sexual Positions

Lex Fridman and Andrew Huberman discussed various details related to sexual positions and their implications, especially concerning fertility. Andrew Huberman noted that for increasing the probability of successful fertilization, it is recommended that the woman should not stand upright immediately after intercourse and should tilt her pelvis about 15 degrees upwards for around 15 minutes to prevent semen from leaking out, thus maximizing sperm retention 1.

Furthermore, while there is considerable lore about certain sexual positions potentially influencing the gender of offspring, the scientific data supporting these claims is sparse and not highly reliable. Techniques like sperm spinning or in vitro fertilization are more scientifically backed methods for gender selection if that is a specific concern 2.
