How to calculate the shortest menstrual cycle and ovulation period

For women, menstruation comes every month. Every time when menstruation comes, they want their menstruation to be normal so that they can have a better body. Therefore, in order to have their menstruation normal, many women want to know how to calculate the shortest menstrual cycle and ovulation period. In order for you to understand these contents as soon as possible, let's take a look at the detailed introduction below.

Method 1:

Calendar method: For women with irregular menstruation, you can calculate based on the menstrual cycle of the past 6-12 months:

The shortest cycle (number of days) - 21 days, and the period before is the pre-safe period.

The longest cycle (number of days) is 10 days, and the period after that is the post-safe period.

For example, the shortest menstrual period is 28 days and the longest is 37 days. The shortest menstrual cycle is subtracted by 21 (28-21=7) and the longest menstrual cycle is subtracted by 10 (37-10=27). Therefore, the 7th to 27th day after the onset of menstruation are all considered the ovulation period.

Method 2:

Observe the cervical mucus: the cervical mucus is often dense in a small quantity, or even with no mucus after the menstruation is over. This is called the "dry period", and it is not easy to get pregnant. In the middle of the menstrual cycle, with endocrine changes, mucus increases and becomes thinner, and vaginal secretions increase, which is called the "wet period".

Near the ovulation period, the mucus is clear, smooth and elastic, like egg white, with high stringiness and not easy to break. The ovulation day is between 48 hours before and after the last day when this mucus appears.

Method 3:

Measuring basal body temperature: Women usually ovulate when their basal body temperature rises from low to high before it rises. The three days when the basal body temperature is at an elevated level is the "fertile stage", and the three days after that is the safe period. This method can only indicate that ovulation has occurred, but cannot predict when ovulation will occur.

Measure and record your body temperature after waking up from 6 hours of adequate sleep and before engaging in any activities: Under normal circumstances, the body temperature rises by 0.3℃-0.5℃ after ovulation; if there is no ovulation, the body temperature does not rise and remains low throughout the entire cycle.

The above content comprehensively introduces how to calculate the shortest menstrual cycle and ovulation period. The above content has made a specific introduction to these aspects. If you want to know more about these aspects, you can fully understand the above introduction.
