It is a common phenomenon that follicles grow very slowly during ovulation, but many people do not understand it or even know whether they are ovulating. In fact, knowing the ovulation period can help us plan our pregnancy better, because if there is no fertilization at this time, it may lead to inability to get pregnant.

Under normal circumstances, a woman's menstrual cycle is about 28 days, and the ovulation period is about 14 days before the next menstruation. At this time, the female's egg is expelled from the ovary and enters the uterus through the fallopian tube, ready to combine with sperm to form a fertilized egg. If fertilization occurs at this time, pregnancy may result.

However, sometimes a woman's eggs may be released very slowly, which may cause her ovulation period to be prolonged and affect her pregnancy plans. So, what is the reason for the slow release of eggs during ovulation?

Generally speaking, slow egg ovulation may be related to the following factors:

1. Age: As a woman ages, her egg quality also decreases, resulting in slower ovulation.

2. Inflammation: If a woman has inflammation, such as salpingitis or oophoritis, it may cause the egg to be released slowly.

3. Disease: For example, anemia or thyroid problems may also cause slow egg release.

4. Medications: Certain medications, such as antidepressants or hormone medications, may affect a woman's ability to release eggs.

5. Diet: Some foods, such as coffee or chocolate, may affect a woman's egg release.

By understanding these factors, we can better plan our pregnancy. If you find that you are ovulating and fertilization is not occurring, you may consider artificial insemination or adoption.

After understanding the ovulation period, we also need to understand some other pregnancy planning factors, such as how to arrange the time, how to calculate the days, and how to monitor, etc. If you have any questions, please feel free to consult your doctor or professional advisor.
