Spotting that occurs around a week after ovulation is likely implantation bleeding; whereas, spotting that occurs very close to the time that your period would normally start may not be.

If it is mostly regular, ovulation occurs two weeks after the first day of your last menstrual period. This is the best time to get pregnant (including a day or two before and after). If you are irregular, it is much more difficult to find out when ovulation occurs. A thermometer to measure temperature "down there" can help you figure out when this is. The concept is still the same - it may be anywhere from 10-18 days since the first day of your last menstrual period.

For those who have shorter menstrual cycle like 25 days their ovulation period would normally fall on the 11th cycle day.On the other hand for those who have a longer menstrual cycle like 31 days, their ovulation time will be on the 17th day after the start of their last menstrual period.
