How many days does ovulation usually last?

Ovulation usually lasts about ten days. Knowing how to calculate the ovulation period will help you to have a better chance of conceiving. Generally speaking, the 14th day before the next menstruation, that is, the five days before and four days after ovulation, are generally called the ovulation period. During these ten days, it is easiest to conceive successfully. To determine the ovulation period, you can also use body temperature method, leucorrhea examination method and symptom examination method.

The ovulation day does not always fall on the same day every month, hence the term ovulation period. The five days before ovulation and the four days after ovulation, a total of ten days, are called the ovulation period, but the 10-day ovulation period is just a general term.

As the pace of modern life continues to accelerate, women are increasingly affected by the real environment. In addition, women's emotions, diet, lifestyle habits, etc. all affect their ovulation. When a woman with a relatively regular life rhythm suddenly changes her life rhythm, her menstrual period may be advanced or delayed, and the length of the ovulation period will fluctuate with the change in the menstrual period. Therefore, the ovulation period of 10 days is an approximate statement, but in fact, the ovulation period of women is generally less than 10 days.

How to determine whether ovulation has occurred?

Temperature measurement method

Some people also know that a woman's body temperature will rise slightly during ovulation, but because the change is not obvious and is easily affected by external factors, it is difficult for women to judge whether they are ovulating by changes in body temperature.

Observation of leucorrhea

The leucorrhea of ​​normal women is relatively dry and less. Only during the ovulation period, due to the production of higher concentrations of estrogen, it acts on the columnar epithelial cells at the cervical opening, causing them to secrete a large amount of leucorrhea. The leucorrhea becomes as clear as egg white, with much more volume, and can even be stringy.

Symptom Judgment Method

For some women, during ovulation, the mature egg is discharged from the surface of the ovary and breaks through a thin membrane follicle on the surface of the egg. A small amount of fluid in the follicle will flow into the pelvic cavity. At this time, there will be a slight feeling of falling in the anus, and at the same time, there will be a slight pain in the left or right ovary.
