When does ovulation start?

So, what is ovulation? Let’s find out together.

Generally speaking, there are two important periods in a woman's menstrual cycle: and the safe period. The safe period refers to the time in a woman’s cycle other than the ovulation period, which is not affected by fertilization. The ovulation period refers to the time in a woman’s cycle when the egg matures and is waiting for fertilization.

So, how to calculate a woman’s ovulation period?

A woman's ovulation usually begins on day 14 of her cycle. This is because it usually takes a woman's eggs 14 days to mature. So, on day 14 of the cycle, a woman's eggs begin to mature and await fertilization.

In addition to calculating ovulation, there are other ways to help women predict whether they are in a dangerous period. For example, methods such as temperature measurement, calendaring, and symptom observation can be used.

Although calculating a woman's ovulation period can help women better predict whether they are in a dangerous period, it does not mean that dangerous periods are always safe. In fact, fertilization may still occur during the dangerous period, so women still need to take necessary safety measures to protect themselves.

Women's menstrual cycles and egg maturation times vary from person to person, so there is no guarantee that the calculated ovulation period will be accurate. However, by understanding these methods, women can better protect themselves from fertilization and pregnancy.
