Patient's question:
Medical Description: Patient is a female, 20 years old, with her last menstrual period on August 2nd. On the morning of the 13th, she had sexual intercourse with her boyfriend with internal ejaculation. She searched online and found that according to the "seven days before and eight days after" rule, it would be the seventh day after her period. However, according to the ovulation period calculation, it is exactly the first day of the fertile window... Which one should she listen to?History of Treatment and Effects: I heard that the female-on-top position is less likely to result in pregnancy?
What kind of help is desired: Is it a safe period or a risky period?
Doctor's answer:
Besides ovulation, it's the safe period. You need to learn to calculate it first. The ovulation date for women is generally about 14 days before the next menstrual period. You need to learn to calculate it yourself so you won't have to ask others in the future.The period from the first day after ovulation to the day before the next menstrual period is the post-ovulation safe period. Generally speaking, the post-ovulation safe period is safer than the pre-ovulation safe period. This is because some women may have their ovulation due to environmental changes and emotional fluctuations, which shortens the pre-ovulation safe period. Without realizing it, the pre-ovulation safe period becomes less safe.
