Your doctor is right. You begin counting toward ovulation from day one of your last menstrual period, regardless of the color. However, it won't necessarily be 10 to 15 days til you're fertile. That's where the variation in women occurs. It's always 14 days AFTER ovulating that your next period starts if you're not pregnant, but how many days til you do ovulate varies widely from woman to woman.
I hope you're pregnant if that's what you want! Best wishes to you!

Here ya go hun... Webmd is a great resorce for all kinds of articles and what not. The first is an article the second is a calculator you put in the day of your last period and a few other numbers and it tells you when you'll start ovulating.
Good luck God bless and name your first after me :D jk

The day you begin your period is the first day (Day #1) of your cycle.

This is what helped me better understand my cycle and when i would be fertile.
Go to http://www.mymonthlycycles.com and put in your period info and it will calculate when you will be fertile and ovulating.
It is a Free and VERY HELPFUL website.....
Good luck
(I think though 14 days)

No matter what color it is. The first day your period comes.
