ovulation?????

Question

hi ..i got my periods on 17 th of this month. how do i calculate when am i ovulating???

Answer 1

You ovulate 12-16 days BEFORE the start of your period (not 14 days after the first day of your period and not necessarily day 14). And you don't necessarily ovulate the same day every cycle. The best ways to determine when you're ovulating are to check your cervical mucus and to use ovulation prediction kits. When you're at the beginning of your fertile period, your cervial mucus should be creamy, milky, or lotion-like. This should last for 2-4 days. When you're most fertile, your cervical mucus should be egg-white and will last anywhere from 1-5 days. If you have "normal" 28-day cycles, you can start using ovulation predictors around day 10 to ensure you don't miss ovulation if you ovulate early.

Answer 2

To tell when you're ovulating, your cycle has to be tracked daily so you can see the patterns over a period of months. If you already know that you have very regular cycles then chances are you probably ovulate somewhere between Days 12 and 16, but those are only averages. And it's more about being in a "fertile time" then about "ovulating" since a woman can get pregnant both before and after ovulation occurs. Since sperm can survive in your body days after intercourse, you could possibly have sex 7 days before you ovulate and get pregnant. But that's not usually the case.

A woman's fertility is so much more complex than just "14 days after your period or 14 days before the next." If you'd like more info about tracking your fertility and also need more tips on maximizing your chances of becoming pregnant, check into the Couple to Couple League. They are great and sell lots of good books, supplies, etc. WWW.CCLI.ORG

The book on all this is called The Art of Natural Family Planning (bet you could find it real cheap on Ebay!). My husband and I have used the method with 100% effectiveness for three years now. It can help you conceive, or space the next child if you have good reasons for doing so.

Answer 3

Well really its different between all women, its exactly the day between the first day of last months period and the first day of next months period. To put simply, Count from the day you had your period in June to the 17th and do the same for the next month if it is the same amount of days then count the middle day. Which is if you have a period every 28 days then on the 14th day after your period you should be ovulating. Just to make your life easier, go out and get a ovulation test!!!!
It explains it better in there
Good luck if you are trying to have a baby!!
