How Ovulation Calculation Works

Ovulation typically happens about 14 days before your next period starts. This calculator looks backward from your expected next period date to find this "release day."

Note: This assumes a regular cycle. If your cycle length varies significantly (e.g., 25 days one month, 35 the next), calculations will be less accurate.

🌟 Understanding Your Fertile Window

Your "Fertile Window" is the 6-day interval when pregnancy is possible. It includes:

  • The 5 Days Before Ovulation: Sperm can survive inside the female body for up to 5 days.
  • Ovulation Day: The egg survives for only 12-24 hours after release.

Having intercourse during the 2-3 days leading up to ovulation offers the highest chance of conception.

🌡️ Physical Signs of Ovulation

Basal Body Temp

Your resting temperature rises slightly (about 0.5°F) right after ovulation occurs.

Cervical Mucus

Look for "egg white" consistency—clear, stretchy mucus indicates high fertility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get pregnant outside the fertile window?

It is extremely unlikely. The egg disintegrates within 24 hours if not fertilized.

What if my cycle is irregular?

Ovulation calculators are best for regular cycles. If you are irregular, consider using Ovulation Predictor Kits (OPKs) which test hormone levels in urine.
