Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How can I calculate my ovulation period?Doctor's answer:
Hello, ovulation generally occurs in the middle of the 28-day menstrual cycle, which is about 14 days before the next menstrual period. If the menstrual cycle is irregular, it is difficult to calculate the date of the next period, and the 15th day after this period can be roughly estimated as the ovulation period. Women of childbearing age usually ovulate once per month, which can be alternately released by the left and right ovaries, or continuously released by one ovary. Ovulation is related to factors such as the environment, emotions, physical health status, sexual activity, and contraceptive drugs. Sometimes, ovulation may occur earlier or two eggs may be released at once, while at other times, ovulation may be delayed or temporarily absent. Relying solely on the menstrual cycle for calculation may still not accurately determine the ovulation date. You can purchase ovulation test strips to conduct ovulation tests.
