Unfortunately, ovulation differs from woman to woman. The myth that a woman ovulates on her 14th day is not true. The timing of ovulation is complex and can take some studying of your body and your cycles to figure out. A combination of methods, such as studying cervical fluid, taking your temperature, and tracking your periods, can help you to calculate your ovulation. The American Pregnancy Association estimates that this is anywhere between 11-21 days since the last menstrual period, or 12-16 days from when you expect the next menstrual period to start.
In other words, study your own body to figure it out.
Other methods could be "spotting" after your cycle, caused by a drop in estrogen just before ovulation, or 20% of women experience middelschmertz, pain in the abdomen produced at the time of ovulation.

The 14th day is when you ovulate in a 28 day cycle. Most cycles run 28-38 days and not shorter. If you are having a shorter cycle go to the doctor this isn't normal.
for most women its 28 days. but its not always the same for all women.
For every woman it is different. If you have a 28 day cycle then typically you ovulate (release an egg) 14 days after the first day of your cycle. Then, we assume that four days before to four days after THAT day are fertile days. That is when a woman can conceive.
That depends on the length of her cycle. The average cycle is 28 days, meaning that she would most likely ovulate 14-16 days in (counting from after the first day of the last period). But that isn't true for all women.
Yes, roughly every 28 days menstruation will occur. Not everyones cycle is 28 days and there can be a few days variation from one cycle to the next.
No. Just means you ovulate later. I always had a 35-38 day cycle and it didn't seem to make any difference.
Most women ovulate 14 days after their last menstrual cycle on the average 28 day cycle. If trying to conceive, there are indicators you can use.
Periods are supposed to occur every 28 days. if yours occurs every 14 days, I would see a gynocologist.
Technically no, but it depends on when you ovulate - sperm can last in the uterus for up to 5 days, and if you ovulate very early in your cycle, then it is technically possible to fall pregnant. But highly unlikely. Average cycle is 28 days long, the first day of your period is the first day of your cycle, so if your period is 5 days long and you have sex on the last day of you period, the sperm can live until day 12 of your cycle. Most women with a 28-day cycle will ovulate on day 14 of their cycle, so you can see how it could be possible to fall pregnant during your period. You usually ovulate 14 days before the start of your new period.
If you take the number of days of your cycle and divide it by two you will get a general day for ovulation. So if your cycle is 28 days you would normally ovulate on day 14, but this could change each cycle. My cycles are between 24 and 28 days so I ovulate earlier around day 11. You will have a clear sticky discharge around the day you ovulate. Normally it is a lot of discharge. You can get a basil body thermometer and take your temp every day when you wake up. Read the instructions on the thermometer and it will tell you how tell when you ovulate if you do not have the discharge.
For women having a regular cycle, ovulation occurs for around 10 days or Day 11 to Day 21 of her cycle. The 14th day is mostly the day where the women ovulate, if she is having a 28-day cycle.
One complete cycle every 28 days.
