Ovulation is a process that every female friend will go through. The pain before ovulation is different for everyone because it depends on the physical condition. Before the egg is released, the body will have different sensations, such as lower abdominal pain, increased secretions from the ovulation period, bleeding during ovulation, slightly higher body temperature, etc. These are all normal physiological manifestations, so don't be nervous or panic.

How long does it take for the egg to be released?

Everyone's physical condition is different, and the duration of pain before the egg is released is also different. The specific time depends on the physical condition.

The feeling of egg release

1. Lower abdominal pain: When the egg is discharged, it needs to break through a thin membrane follicle that wraps the surface. A small amount of fluid in the follicle will flow into the lowest part of the pelvic cavity, causing a small amount of bleeding. At this time, you will feel pain in one side of the lower abdomen, which will be relieved after a few hours.

2. Increased vaginal secretions: Vaginal secretions increase significantly and appear watery, transparent and clear. Women will feel their vagina is wet and slippery, and when they wipe it with toilet paper, there will be egg white-like strips of mucus.

3. Ovulation bleeding: After the follicle is discharged, the estrogen level drops sharply, causing local rupture and shedding of the endometrium, resulting in breakthrough bleeding. The amount of bleeding during ovulation is small and usually stops on its own within 2-3 days, and can last up to 7 days.

4. Slightly high body temperature: The body temperature is slightly higher when the egg is released, but the change is not obvious, generally fluctuating around 0.5 degrees Celsius.

5. Breast pain: During ovulation, the estrogen level in the body increases, breast hyperplasia, and edema of interbreast tissue lead to breast pain.

How long does it take for ovulation to occur after the follicle matures?

The mature egg is usually released within one to two days after the follicle matures. The ovulation day of different women is different. The egg survives in the body for two days after being released. Having sex during this period can increase a woman's chances of successful conception. That is to say, although the ovulation date of different women is different, the date of ovulation is generally similar after the ovaries mature. If the follicles are mature but fail to be discharged, it is usually caused by ovarian dysfunction.

In order to arrange sexual intercourse time reasonably and improve pregnancy rate, it is important to predict women's ovulation period. However, not all women ovulate in the middle of their menstrual cycle. In a woman's menstrual cycle, the period before ovulation is called the follicular phase, during which the egg matures and then ovulates. The period from ovulation to the next menstruation is called the luteal phase, which is the period of development and degeneration of the corpus luteum. Generally speaking, the length of the menstrual cycle is mainly determined by the length of the follicular phase. That is to say, the length of the follicular phase varies greatly, while the luteal phase is relatively fixed, usually around 14 days. The ovulation period is before the luteal phase, so the ovulation period is mostly 14 days before the next menstrual period. Therefore, it is easier to get pregnant if you have sex 2 days before ovulation, during ovulation and within 24 hours after ovulation.
