This woman said: Y’all my sons’ best girl friend came over to hang today and the minute she walked in the door she hugged me and said into my ear: I need to talk to you in private. Ok girly. Y’all, she started her period this morning for the first time and her Mom is out of town with the military and she told her older sister, but she didn’t want to ask her Dad for pads. I only have boys. And they knew something was up, and she kind of danced around it for a bit then told them. Y’all when I tell you we ---

Ovulation! Topic: Back To The Topic of Ovulation " For those asking how to calculate ovulation and fertile days, here we go again. First you need to know your cycle length before you can know your likely ovulation day. Note that a normal cycle length ranges between 21-35 days, anything below 21 days or above 35 days is abnormal, so see a doctor). -To know your cycle length (that is how many days it takes before you see your menstrual period) you start counting from the FIRST day you saw blood to the FIRST day you'll see blood of your next period (which can be within the same month or the next month, it doesn't matter so long as the number of days is within the normal range of 21-35 days when you count the interval between previous & present). E.g If your previous period started like, 9th October and that of November started maybe on 6th November...., If you count from 9th October to 6th November, you have 27 days, so 27 days is your cycle length. It might not be 27 days for every month but always count from the FIRST day of an existing period to FIRST day of the next one to get your cycle length. - When you can accurately calculate your cycle length, you can then be able to know when to likely ovulate and also your fertile window. -To calculate ovulation/fertile days after you have known your cycle length which can be anything between 21-35 days. -ALWAYS USE 14 as a constant factor that should be applied to know your ovulation day irrespective of the cycle length. E.g If the cycle length is 27 days. You subtract 14 from 27 to know your ovulation day. 27-14=13 The 13th day counting from the first day your period started is likely your ovulation day (and it lasts for 24 hrs). Your fertile window is 5 days before the ovulation day & a day after (7 days altogether). To illustrate better, -If your period started like, 9th September and you have already calculated your cycle length to be 27 days, applying the 14 factor to calculate ovulation (27-14=13) you are likely to ovulate on 21st September (counting 13 days from 9th June which is the first day your period started) and fertile window will be 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th & 20th & 22nd September (that is five days before ovulation day & a day after).

MENSTRUAL CYCLE AND OVULATION PERIOD... Most ladies don't understand this because of much heavy grammar used to teach it, and we don't listen to our body too. Pls read, start listening to your body for signs and follow the simple analysis/steps for ease of getting pregnant..... MENSTRUAL PERIOD:The time blood flows out of your private area, when you use pad. MENSTRUAL CYCLE: Days it takes to see another blood in the month. If you last saw your period in October 11th and it started again on November 10th 2017, then you have 30days cycle (count from 11 October to 10 November). NOTE: It is erroneous to believe its 28days cycle, different women have different cycles ranging from 21-35 days. Check Thread 👇
