How many days after menstruation does a woman ovulate?

Generally, a woman's menstrual cycle lasts 28 days, but some may have it longer or shorter. If your menstrual cycle is 28 days, your next period will be around March 20. From March 20 to April 17 is your ovulation period.

However, this is only a rough timeline. In fact, a woman's menstrual cycle and ovulation period are affected by many factors, such as diet, exercise, stress, medications, and health conditions. Therefore, if you are unsure about your menstrual cycle and ovulation, it is best to consult a doctor or professional advisor.

During ovulation, a woman’s eggs mature and are released. After the egg is released, it can survive for approximately 48 hours. So if you schedule sex during ovulation, you'll likely hear back from your partner within 48 hours.
