Fertile days - Gynecology

What are Fertile Days?

Fertile days refer to the period during a woman's menstrual cycle when she is most likely to conceive. This timeframe usually spans a few days before and after ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovaries. Understanding fertile days is crucial for those trying to conceive and those aiming to avoid pregnancy.

How to Calculate Fertile Days?

To calculate fertile days, it is essential to track the menstrual cycle. Ovulation typically occurs about 14 days before the start of the next menstrual period. For a woman with a 28-day cycle, ovulation usually happens around day 14. The fertile window is generally from day 10 to day 17 of the cycle.

Signs of Ovulation

There are several signs that indicate a woman is ovulating. These include:
Basal Body Temperature (BBT) increase
Changes in cervical mucus, which becomes clearer and more stretchy
