The ovulation and follicular phases are very important periods in the pregnancy process. The importance of these two periods and how to accurately predict them are detailed below.
Ovulation refers to the 14th day of a woman’s menstrual cycle, when a woman’s eggs mature and are released. After the egg is released, the female body enters the egg phase until the next menstrual cycle.
What is the follicular phase?
The follicular phase refers to the 13th to 19th day of a woman’s menstrual cycle. During this period, a woman's ovaries begin to produce eggs, which gradually grow in size. The egg stage is a very important period in the pregnancy process, because at this time, women can have the opportunity to release high-quality eggs and provide excellent genes for future embryos.
How to accurately predict ovulation and follicular phase?
To accurately predict ovulation and follicular phase, women need to monitor their normal cycles. Generally speaking, women can predict them by:
1. Measure body temperature: Women can measure their body temperature when they wake up every morning and record changes in body temperature. Generally speaking, a woman’s body temperature will rise during ovulation, around 37.4°C.
2. Observe symptoms: Women can predict symptoms by observing whether they have changes in appetite, changes in breasts, changes in physical strength, etc. Generally speaking, during ovulation, women will experience symptoms such as increased appetite, breast swelling, and increased sexual desire.
3. Use a pregnancy test stick: Women can use a pregnancy test stick to check whether they are pregnant. Pregnancy tests usually respond during the ovulation and egg stages, showing a red or orange line, indicating pregnancy.
Although the above methods can predict ovulation and egg stages, they are not completely accurate. Therefore, women should monitor their normal cycles and adjust their prediction methods based on their physical condition and feelings.
The ovulation and follicular phases are very important periods in the pregnancy process. Through the above methods, women can accurately predict them and take measures to ensure the healthy development of the embryo.
