How to calculate ovulation period

Patient's question:

[All symptoms: I had my period on July 20, when is my ovulation period? Onset time and cause: None Treatment: None Desired help: How to calculate?]

Doctor's answer:

For women with regular menstrual cycles, a calendar can be used to estimate their ovulation period. Generally, the ovulation day is 14 days before the next menstrual period. Mark this date on the calendar and arrange sexual activity accordingly to increase the chances of conception. Since the ovulation period can be affected by factors such as illness, emotions, environment, and medication, it should be used in conjunction with other methods. In the days leading up to ovulation, the basal body temperature is typically below 36.5°C. The day before ovulation, the temperature drops slightly, and on the day of ovulation, it reaches its lowest point. After that, the basal body temperature begins to rise, with an increase of more than 0.5°C. It takes about 12 to 16 days for the temperature to rise until the next menstrual period.
