How many days between menstruation and ovulation

Maybe many female friends don’t know when their ovulation period comes, but you are very clear about when your menstruation comes. Some female friends can’t distinguish between the two, which will have a certain impact on your pregnancy preparation. If you are preparing for pregnancy, you should avoid sexual intercourse during menstruation and choose to have sex during the ovulation period. This will help you increase your chances of conception and facilitate the implantation of the fertilized egg.

How many days after menstruation is the ovulation period

A normal woman will ovulate once every menstrual cycle (usually once a month). The day of ovulation is called the "ovulation day". The 5 days before ovulation, the 4 days after ovulation, plus the ovulation day, are the woman's ovulation period. Therefore, women's ovulation period is 10 days. Since everyone's menstrual cycle is different, the answer to how many days after menstruation is the ovulation period will also be different. However, you can calculate the ovulation period according to this formula:

1. For women with relatively stable menstrual periods: It is generally the 14th day before the next menstrual period. The 5 days before this day, including this day and the 4 days after this day, are called the ovulation period. In other words, the ovulation period of an average woman is ten days.

For example, suppose a woman has a regular menstrual cycle of 30 days. The first day of this menstruation is June 25th, so the next menstruation will come on July 25th, and the ovulation day will be 14 days before July 25th, which is July 11th. The 5 days before ovulation are July 6th, and the 4 days after ovulation are July 15th, so the ovulation period is from July 6th to July 15th. How many days after menstruation is the ovulation period? Just subtract the date when this menstruation ends from July 6th. For example, if this menstruation starts on June 25 and ends on June 30, then the ovulation period is 6 days after the menstruation.

2. If the menstrual cycle is unstable, the ovulation period can be calculated in this way: the first day of ovulation = the shortest menstrual cycle minus 18 days, the last day of ovulation = the longest menstrual cycle minus 11 days. The calculation method is to take the first day of menstruation as the base point and count the days backwards.

Is it easy to get pregnant during ovulation?

We know that to get pregnant, the first thing is the combination of egg and sperm, and the egg matures once a month, so we need to seize the time when the egg matures to better arrange a pregnancy plan.

The eggs are produced by the ovaries and formed through meiosis. The first meiotic division is completed in the ovaries. After the ovulation process, the secondary oocyte and the surrounding zona pellucida and corona radiata are discharged. If the secondary oocyte meets the sperm, it will undergo the second meiotic division during the combination process and become a true egg. The egg can survive for about 48 hours after being discharged, waiting to meet and combine with the sperm during these 48 hours.

Therefore, the chance of pregnancy during ovulation is very high. If you are planning to get pregnant, it is best to calculate your ovulation period in advance: the ovulation day is about 14 days before the next menstrual period, and the 2-3 days before and after the ovulation day are the ovulation period when it is easy to get pregnant. Generally, you can use ovulation test strips to test every day starting 10 days after the menstrual period to find the day of ovulation.
