Embarrassing things about women's ovulation period

In fact, women are born with egg cells. When the fetus leaves the mother's body and comes into the world, there are already 2 million oogonia in the tiny ovaries of the newborn girl, but these oogonia are still primordial follicles that have not yet matured. The primordial follicle continues to grow and develop throughout a woman's life. Among them, more than 99% of the primordial follicles shrink and die soon after they begin to develop. Only less than 1% of the primordial follicles can survive the puberty period, enter the reproductive period, and finally mature into oocytes.

Generally speaking, only one egg cell matures during each menstrual cycle. According to this calculation, from the time a woman's menarche begins to the time she reaches menopause around the age of 45, more than 500 oogonia can mature in her lifetime. During the development and maturation process, the follicle not only increases in size and follicular fluid, but also gradually moves from the inside of the ovary to the surface of the ovary, and finally protrudes out of the ovarian capsule. When the egg cell is fully developed and mature, under the action of sex hormones and enzymes in the body, the follicular membrane and the ovarian theca will dissolve and rupture, the follicular fluid will be discharged, and the oocyte will be released. This is ovulation. Women in their childbearing years ovulate once a month.

Women will have many special behaviors during their ovulation period, which women should be aware of so that they can deal with their own bodies and emotions.

Most creative

This period is best for creative activities because your brain is most active at this time. Research by American scientists shows that as estrogen levels in the body increase, a person's cognitive ability also increases. If your cycle is 28 days, your brain works best and your short-term memory is strongest between days 12 and 14. Schedule important meetings and negotiations during this time; you will react faster and work more efficiently than usual.

Higher pitch

In addition to the changes in appearance and taste mentioned above, studies have shown that a woman's voice becomes higher-pitched as she approaches ovulation. Women's voice pitch reaches its highest level just before and during ovulation. Experts are currently trying to figure out whether higher-pitched voices can make men more attractive.

More attractive to men

In an experiment, several men were divided into two groups. One group was asked to smell the T-shirt of a woman in her ovulation period, and the other group was asked to smell the T-shirt of a woman who was not ovulating. The results showed that the testosterone content in the former group of men was higher than that in the latter group. High testosterone levels make romantic courtship more likely.

Jealousy is the strongest

Women who are ovulating are most likely to be jealous of other women. British researchers showed participants 35 photos of women's faces. The photos show the person wearing uniform black work clothes without any decorations. Afterwards, the researchers asked the participants to rate the attractiveness of the women's photos on a 7-point scale. 0 is "least attractive" and 7 is "most attractive". The results showed that women gave significantly lower scores to the attractiveness of other women during the 12th to 21st day of their menstrual period (the ovulation period when pregnancy is most likely to occur). However, this "wave of jealousy" will gradually subside with the end of a woman's ovulation period, and her evaluation of other women will then turn positive. During the ovulation period of each month, women tend to be jealous of other women and even belittle other women's appearance. Their purpose is to "attack others and elevate themselves" to win the attention of the most ideal man.

Key points for protection during ovulation

During this period, women must pay attention to various safety precautions and avoid being disturbed by diseases. Moreover, these details of life must be adhered to.

You should have your own dedicated towel to wash your private parts under running water in the shower.

After each defecation, it is best to develop a habit of washing with warm water to prevent intestinal bacteria from taking the opportunity to enter the vagina and cause inflammation.

Drinking enough water every day can reduce the growth of bacteria in the urinary tract.

When there is a lot of secretion, you can use a hair dryer set to warm air to dry your vulva after taking a shower. After taking a shower, you should wear underwear after your vulva is relatively dry. Nowadays, there are many people who only wear skirts without underwear at home, or do not wear underwear when sleeping. This is better for the vagina, as it allows it to ventilate and dry. But bedding should be changed frequently and kept clean.

Be careful when choosing sanitary products, and use less sanitary pads and toilet paper containing fragrances, pigments or deodorizing ingredients. In addition, do not use soap or shower gel to clean the vagina, because most ordinary shower gels and soaps are alkaline, with a pH value of 7.
