Answer 1

Assuming that a woman has a 28–day cycle and that ovulation occurs around the 14th day of her cycle that means that her most fertile times occur during days 11 to 17 of her cycle. But before you apply this math, take into consideration that not all women have 28–day cycles. The key to timing your intercourse is knowing the length of your cycle so you can estimate when ovulation occurs. It's also important to understand that this "fertile window" can be highly unpredictable, even if a woman's menstrual cycle is usually regular.
Predicting ovulation.

Pinpointing the precise day when ovulation should occur is a bit of a challenge. The easiest, but least precise, way to predict this is to chart your menstrual cycle on a calendar. Remember, a woman's cycle begins on the first day of her period and typically lasts about 28 days. The first day begins not when a woman is spotting, but when she experiences regular flow.

Once it is known how many days a woman's cycle generally is, subtract 14 days from the predicted end of the cycle to determine time of ovulation.

Another option may be to use a basal body temperature (BBT) chart. To measure BBT, a woman simply takes her temperature every morning when she wakes up and charts it on a calendar. Her BBT should rise about a half degree two days after a surge in her luteinizing hormone (LH) occurs, indicating that ovulation has happened. Physical release of the ovum (egg) probably occurs on the day prior to the first temperature elevation.

You can also buy an ovulation predictor kit at your local drug store. They're available without a prescription, are simple to use, and can usually predict ovulation 24 to 36 hours in advance. The kit works by measuring increases in a woman's LH level just prior to ovulation.

Unfortunately, these methods are not perfect.

Answer 2

try the ovulation test like everyone says...they really are helpful...you can also talk to your doctor about doing an ultrasound to measure your folicles to see when you will ovulate...he can explain to you how that works. i had it done last month after taking clomid and found out that i ovulated on day 16....it was so much easier cause i didn't have the stress of making sure we had sex every single day from day 11-18...especially since our work schedules were crazy at that time and we were only seeing each other maybe 5 minutes a day....
Best wishes to you and your husband!

Answer 3

Depends on your cycle, and when your body naturally decides to ovulate. We dont cycle like the tide.

In most cases for a 28 day cycle you tend to ovulate around day 14.

You can figure out your cycle by picking up some ovulation strips from medical wholesalers on ebay. I got 50 of them for 20 bucks and peed on them each day through two cycles.

I happen to ovulate on day 22-23... but I got pregnant on a fluke ovulation when we had sex the last two days of my period.

Go figure.

Answer 4

Assuming that your cycle is every 28 days begin counting from the first day of you cycle to the 10th day (it will be over), from the 10th day to the 18th day is when you would ovulate the 14th day would be the best day to ttc.

Good Luck, I hope this works for you!

Answer 5

14 days before your next period starts

Answer 6

14 days but you can't really tell that's what they say but all girls and woman are different we could ovulate 16 days before we wouldn't know really.So try going to the doctor
