Understanding Ovulation

Ovulation is the release of a mature egg from the ovary, which happens once each menstrual cycle. When the egg is released, it travels down the fallopian tube where it can be fertilized by sperm. Ovulation typically occurs about 14 days before your next period starts.

Your fertile window — the days when you can get pregnant — spans about 6 days each cycle: the 5 days before ovulation and the day of ovulation itself. This is because sperm can survive in the reproductive tract for up to 5 days, while the egg survives for 12-24 hours.

Understanding your ovulation cycle is essential whether you're trying to conceive or practicing natural family planning. Our calculator helps you identify these crucial days based on your personal cycle length.
