Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Could you please advise what to do if I don't ovulate when I test with an ovulation predictor kit 14 days before my period?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, women's menstrual cycles can vary in length, but the interval between the day of ovulation and the start of the next menstrual period is relatively fixed, usually around 14 days. Based on this relationship between ovulation and menstruation, it is possible to calculate the ovulation period according to the menstrual cycle. This is done by starting from the first day of the next menstrual period and counting backward 14 days to determine the day of ovulation. The day of ovulation, along with the 5 days before it and the 4 days after it, together constitute the ovulation period. I hope my answer helps you.
