2024 Symposium
Is 2024 a good year to conceive?
According to a Hong Kong-based English-language newspaper, South China Morning Post, the Year of the Dragon is considered highly auspicious for childbirth. Historical data indicates that more births occur in the Year of the Dragon than in any other year within the 12-year Chinese calendrical cycle.
Previous research in various Asian cultures supports the idea that fertility rates tend to rise during Dragon years. The dragon, a symbol associated with power, success, good fortune, luck, and intelligence, is considered one of the most influential and charismatic signs. There is a belief that children born in the Year of the Dragon inherit these positive qualities, prompting many couples to aspire to have children during this period.
For those seeking to conceive during the Year of the Dragon, it is recommended to plan for conception before March 2024.
If you plan to kickstart your journey, join our fertility doctors at our FREE symposium on Saturday, January 20, 2024, from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
