How to determine ovulation

The arrival of a girl's ovulation period is a key indicator of her reproductive function. If women can grasp the ovulation period, they can calculate the ovulation period correctly, so that they can easily complete pregnancy and contraception measures, and better arrange their married life. So how to calculate the ovulation period most accurately?

1. Calculation based on the whole month

Women's ovulation cycle is calculated on a monthly basis, with each cycle lasting 28 to 30 days. As long as it is regular, it is normal to arrive a week early or a week late.

If you calculate the ovulation period based on the whole month, only women with a very accurate menstrual cycle can calculate it, that is, women with a 30-day cycle. The ovulation period is calculated as 14 days before the next menstrual period.

For example, if the menstrual period comes on the 28th of each month, then the ovulation period is the last 14 days of the 28th, that is, the 14th is the ovulation period, and the three days before and after the 14th are the ovulation period. The probability of pregnancy during this week is high.

2. Calculate based on body temperature changes

Women will have different body temperature stages due to the changes in a cycle, so body temperature can be used to measure the ovulation period. The temperature measurement requirement is to measure the initial body temperature before getting up in the morning, without exercising or making any large movements. That is, after waking up, don't talk loudly, don't try hard to turn over, the body temperature at this time is the lowest in the day, which is called ovulation temperature. By comparing the body temperature during this ovulation period with that measured every day, you can see the ovulation period. This requires sufficient care and perseverance, and must be tested every day. You can place the digital thermometer on the bedside table so that it is easily accessible when you wake up. It is best to test before 7 o'clock in the morning.

During the follicular phase, the human body temperature is relatively low. The temperature measured by the editor at this time was 36.3, and many sisters who measured together also measured 36.2-36.3. This can be used as a simple reference. Everyone's ovulation temperature is different, so there is no need to worry about this temperature of a few tenths.

During ovulation, body temperature reaches the lowest point of the entire cycle.

After ovulation: the body temperature rises immediately, and the detected value rises by about 0.3-0.5 degrees, which is the human body temperature of about 36.7-36.8.

If you are pregnant, your body temperature will not be able to maintain a relatively high temperature for a long time. If you are unsuccessful in pregnancy, your body temperature will return to the ovulation temperature of around 36.2 degrees before menstruation.

3. Use ovulation test strips to test

This is the most convenient way. Using professional ovulation test strips, you can clearly see the changes in the ovulation period. You should buy reliable ovulation test strips. I can’t mention the actual well-known brands here, you can just search them online.

If you use ovulation test strips, you should test your urine between 10:00 and 20:00 every afternoon. It is best to test at the same time every day. During the follicular phase, it is sufficient to test once a day. Generally, there will not be too many changes because the eggs are mature during this period and have not yet reached quality indicators. However, to avoid rapid development, it is still sufficient to test once a day to see changes.

One week after the menstrual period is over, test twice a day, once in the morning and once at noon. And make a good comparison.

During the ovulation period, the test paper becomes significantly darker. At this time, you can test four times a day, once every two hours. When the test paper reaches its peak and becomes darker (darker than the control line) on the ovulation day, it is the ovulation period. This deep layer can last for two days. After ovulation, the test paper quickly returns to the shallow follicular phase.

Tip: A weak positive test during the non-ovulation period is also normal. There is no need to be suspicious by nature.

4. Go to the hospital for B-ultrasound test

B-ultrasound tests in hospital outpatient clinics can measure the actual size of the egg and determine the time of ovulation. Although this method is the most accurate, it is also very expensive. It also means doing B-ultrasounds all the time, which will cause great stress. It is a time-consuming, labor-intensive and costly method, but it is the most accurate.

If you go to the hospital for testing, you only need to follow the doctor's instructions and the doctor will make a plan for when to go for the test. Therefore, you just need to prepare money and time.

When doing B-ultrasound testing, it is best to measure yourself with test paper and body temperature at the same time to see whether the changes in the test paper and body temperature are consistent with the changes in the size of the follicles. Once you grasp the regularity, you can easily test it yourself at home.

5. Observe the condition of leucorrhea drawing

Women's discharge is cervical mucus, which is present throughout their cycle, more or less. Some unusual gynecological symptoms can also be diagnosed through routine leucorrhea examination to see if there are gynecological diseases. Of course, you can also detect the ovulation period based on the leucorrhea stringiness.

This method is only suitable for female friends who do not have gynecological inflammation. During the ovulation period of each month, the mucus will increase compared to the normal follicular phase and become transparent egg white-like, which can be extended to about 10CM and last for a long time. After ovulation, mucus decreases significantly. This can help you determine when your ovulation occurs.

However, this method is suitable for women who have no gynecological inflammation and have experience. If it is not easy to grasp, it is easy to make mistakes.

6. Observation and detection of ovulation bleeding

Many girls will experience brown bleeding during ovulation because the egg has completely separated from the uterus and ovary. Some female friends with relatively low estrogen levels will experience ovulation bleeding at this time. That is, there is bleeding between two menstrual periods, which lasts for two days and then stops naturally.

Some women may also suddenly experience a stabbing pain in the lower abdomen, uterus and ovaries during ovulation, which is also caused by ovulation. These two situations are relatively rare and only apply to women with this regularity.

If you are a woman who hopes to calculate your ovulation period, if you want to calculate your ovulation period more accurately, you'd better refer to the method of calculating ovulation period in the article carefully and choose the method that suits you.
