Ovulation is the best period for conception. Arranging sexual intercourse during this period can greatly increase the chances of conception. So, when is the ovulation period for women every month? What are the methods for calculating ovulation period? Today, the editor is here specifically to introduce the calculation method of ovulation period.
Ovulation period calculation
1. Aquino Law
The Aquino method, also known as the mathematical formula method, means that ovulation occurs approximately 14 days before the last day of the menstrual cycle (i.e. the first day of the next menstrual cycle). If the day of the next menstrual cycle is on the Nth day, then this ovulation day is on the N-14th day.
2. Ovulation test strip method
The luteinizing hormone (LH) in female urine reaches its peak 24-48 hours before ovulation, and ovulation test strips can accurately detect the peak level of LH. After starting the detection, it should be checked regularly every day. When a color close to the peak value is about to appear, it should be tested every 12 hours until the LH peak is detected.
3. Basal body temperature measurement method
Measure and record basal body temperature for six to twelve consecutive months, which will increase by 0.3-0.5 ℃ after ovulation. Pregnant women can purchase a thermometer and drop it below 35 ℃ before going to bed every day. They should wake up every morning (after 6-8 hours of sleep) without any exercise and immediately measure their body temperature.
4. White discharge observation method
During a menstrual cycle, the nature of vaginal discharge undergoes periodic changes. In general, vaginal discharge is relatively dry, viscous, and in small quantities. During ovulation, vaginal discharge becomes clear and transparent, like egg whites, with a high degree of stringiness. This is due to the high concentration of estrogen produced during ovulation, which acts on the columnar epithelial cells of the cervical opening, causing them to secrete a large amount of vaginal discharge.
The above four are the most commonly used and simplest methods for calculating ovulation period in daily life. If you want to know your ovulation period, come and learn! Understanding the ovulation period can not only increase the possibility of conception, but also effectively prevent pregnancy!
