About Ovulation Calculator
The ovulation calculator helps you understand important dates in your menstrual cycle, useful for both planning or avoiding pregnancy. Here are some key concepts:
Menstrual Cycle
The menstrual cycle is counted from the first day of one period to the first day of the next. Normal cycle lengths range from 22 to 44 days, with 28 days being the most common.
Ovulation Day
Ovulation typically occurs about 14 days before the next period. In a 28-day cycle, this is usually around day 14.
Fertile Window
The fertile window includes the five days before ovulation and the ovulation day itself. This is when conception is most likely:
- 4-5 days before ovulation: Fertility begins to increase
- 2-3 days before ovulation: Fertility increases significantly
- Day of ovulation and the day before: Peak fertility
