A few days after the event, does ovulation start right after it's over?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the ovulation period for women is generally around 14 days before the next menstrual period. In medicine, it is usually calculated from the first day of the next menstrual period. Counting backward 14 days or subtracting 14 days gives the ovulation day. However, the 5 days before and 4 days after the ovulation day are collectively referred to as the dangerous period.
