What Is Ovulation?

Ovulation is the process when a mature egg is released from one of your ovaries. This typically happens once per menstrual cycle, around two weeks before your next period.

After the egg is released:

• It travels down the fallopian tube.

• It remains fertile for 12 to 24 hours.

• If sperm is present during this time, fertilization may occur, leading to pregnancy.

Because sperm can live inside the female body for up to 5 days, your most fertile days are usually the five days before ovulation and the day of ovulation itself.

How Ovulation Calculators Work

Ovulation occurs when a mature egg is released from the ovary, typically happening once per menstrual cycle. This egg is available for fertilization for about 12-24 hours, while sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for up to five days. The “fertile window” — the days leading up to and including ovulation — is the best time for conception. Ovulation calculators estimate this window by analyzing data like the length of your menstrual cycle and the start date of your last period. Most calculators assume ovulation occurs roughly 14 days before the next period begins, but this can vary depending on individual cycle lengths. For example, in a 28-day cycle, ovulation might occur around day 14, but in a 35-day cycle, it could happen closer to day 21.

FAQ

What is an Ovulation Calculator?

An Ovulation Calculator estimates your most fertile days based on your last period date and average cycle length, helping you identify when you’re most likely to conceive.

How accurate is an Ovulation Calculator?

It provides a close estimate of ovulation based on average cycle data. For best accuracy, pair it with ovulation test kits or basal temperature tracking.

How long after my period do I ovulate?

Most women ovulate about 12–16 days before their next period, depending on their cycle length.

Can I get pregnant outside my fertile window?

It’s unlikely, but possible. Sperm can survive up to 5 days, so timing intercourse during your fertile window maximizes your chances.

What if I have irregular periods?

The calculator can still estimate fertile days, but tracking over several months or using ovulation tests will improve accuracy.
