Patient's question:
I am 28 years old this year, married for two years, and my menstrual cycle is often delayed. The delay duration varies (sometimes one month, sometimes two months). In November, I had an ultrasound, and the results showed that the uterus was normal. Now I want to have a child, but I don't know when I ovulate. How can I find out my ovulation period or how can I take care of my body?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the time between ovulation and the next menstrual period is relatively fixed. Generally, menstruation occurs 14 days after ovulation, so the ovulation period is the day before ovulation plus the following 4 days. Therefore, under regular menstrual cycles, it is possible to predict when the next menstrual period will occur, which allows for a more accurate calculation of the ovulation period.1. Observe the characteristics of cervical mucus. If the mucus becomes egg-white-like and stretchy, it indicates that you are entering the ovulation period. Have intercourse every other day for the following week.
2. Use an ovulation test strip to test, and follow the instructions for using the test strip to determine your ovulation period.
3. Start undergoing transvaginal ultrasound monitoring of the follicles from the 10th day of your menstrual cycle. This is the most accurate and intuitive method for checking ovulation.
