Ovulation

Ovulation is the release of a mature egg (or ovum) from one of the ovaries. It occurs about 14 days after the end of the last menstrual cycle. The egg travels down one of the fallopian tubes and is available for fertilization.

What is the difference between ovulation fertilization and pregnancy?

Oftentimes, an egg is fertilized during ovulation but doesn't "take." Instead, it's shed with the uterine lining when your period comes. A pregnancy, however, means that the fertilized egg does indeed "take." It attaches to the uterine wall and the amniotic sac begins to develop to nurture the fetus.

Where can one purchase ovulation test strips?

One can purchase ovulation test strips from Amazon where they are available to buy for around $20. One can also purchase them from eBay or from a local pharmacy.

If birth control pills stop ovulation then why can you feel yourself ovulating?

You may feel yourself ovulating because you maybe. There are four ways the pill acts to stop sperm reaching an egg (ovum). First, the hormones in the pill try to stop an ovum being released from your ovary each month. This is known as the suppression of ovulation. Research has shown that neither the progesterone-only pill nor the combined progesterone-oestrogen formulations always stop ovulation. Second, all formulations of the pill cause changes to the cervical mucus that your body produces. The cervical mucus may become thicker and more difficult for sperm to fertilize an ovum. Third, all formulations of the pill cause changes to the lining of the womb (properly known as the endometrium). Under the influence of the chemicals in the pill, the lining of the womb doesn't grow to the proper thickness. You will notice that your periods are lighter when you are on the pill. This is because the lining of the womb has not developed properly. But this change also means that the womb is not in the right stage of development to allow a fertilized egg to attach properly (this attachment process is known as implantation). Fourth, the pill causes changes to the movement of the Fallopian tubes. This effect may reduce the possibility of the ovum being fertilised.

If you are about 4 days post ovulation could slight cramping and breast tenderness be the first signs of pregnancy?

Yes, but they could also be signs of pregnancy. It seems a bit too early to tell if you are pregnant, to me.

It could be, but I don't suggest you take a test until you've missed your period. It doesn't seem like you would have enough hcg for a test to detect at this time.

It could be. I am now 6 weeks pregnant. I started experiencing light cramping.(almost like twinges or pulling in my lower abdomen.) 1 week before my expected period. I was also having more frequent headaches and was very tired. So, it is possible.

What could be causing heavy bleeding like a normal period 6 days before your period is due you timed ovulation with an ovulation kit and your temperature is still high?

Your TEMP increases throughout the day & then decreases again. TEMPs usually increase during period, Ovulation and evening. This is normal & I honestly wouldn't rely on this as being a indication of pregnancy as it can be very misleading. If your bleeding is excessively heavy or heavy & worrisome, contact your DR for a evaluation. It is probably nothing to worry about but its best to ere on the side of caution, especially if you suspect pregnancy.

If a person is taking the depo shot and gets a period before the next shot is due but does not get the shot will ovulation occur?

This question would be best answered by the doctor who administered the Depo shot. Every woman's body is different and will react to the hormones differently.

If your cycle is 54 days how can you determine your fertile days thanx?

If you check your BBT basal body temparature you will be able to see when it gets lower comparing to your previous ones then you ovulate. In order to do this you need to chect your temperature very day before you get out of bed. Hope it helps. Good luck. I have also found this for you: Basal Body Temperature (BBT) The Basal Body Temperature is your body temperature when taken at its lowest point, usually in the morning before getting out of bed. Progesteron increases body temperature Charting BBT is used to monitor the occurance ovulation and/or pregnancy. This is possible because the hormone progesteron increases your body temperature. Progesteron makes the lining of your uterus soft and spongy so that a fertilized egg can latch onto it and implant. progesteron is made in your body to support and sustain a possible pregnancy. Right after menstruation, there is little progesteron, your temperature is low. During ovulation, about 14 days after menstruation, You can see this on a BBT chart, since the temperature goes up. Right before the next menstruation two things can happen: 1. The temperature goes down again: means that progesteron is dissapearing. Since progesteron is needed to support and sustain a possible pregnancy it means that you aren't pregnant. 2. The temperature stays high: you are possible pregnant since progesteron is still being made. During pregnancy, your BBT will stay higher. 3 Basal Body Temperature patterns There are three BBT patterns possible. 1. No Ovulation and No pregnancy: Monophasic An anovulatory BBT pattern where the temperature remains relatively constant throughout the cycle. The typical anovulatory chart has temperatures which zig-zag up and down throughout the cycle in no apparent pattern. 2. Ovulation but No pregnancy: Biphasic A BBT pattern consistent with ovulation and the formation of the corpus luteum (`Yellow body`), which secretes progesterone. This hormone will elevate the basal body temperature about one-half degree during the latter half of the menstrual cycle. 3. Ovulation AND Pregnancy: Triphasic Similar to a biphasic BBT pattern, but adds a jump to a third level of temperatures around the time implantation should occur and may indicate pregnancy. Directions for charting Basal Body Temperature 1. A regular fever thermometer or special `metabolic` thermometer may be used. 2. Your temperature should be taken each morning at approximately the same time, immediately on awakening, before eating, talking, smoking, or arising. 3. The thermometer should be placed under your tongue, with the mouth closed, and left in place for five minutes, by the clock or when the electronic alarm sounds. 4. After you have taken your temperature, enter it in the online BBT charter on this website. Each daily dot will be joined to the previous day`s dot by means of a straight line. 5. Start a new graph with each menstrual cycle. The first day of your menstrual flow is day `1` of the new cycle. Your temperature need not be taken while you are having your menstrual period. 6. After your menstrual cycle has stopped, begin taking your temperature again 7. The chart has room for extra information, like * intercourse * vaginal bleeding * lower abdominal pain (possible ovulation) * spotting (possible ovulation) * thin vaginal discharge (possible ovulation) * recognized causes for temperature changes, such as a cold, other illnesses, indigestion, alcoholic beverages, restless sleep, going to bed late, arising late, etc. 8. It is necessary to record your temperature for at least two or three cycles before the graph is of much value. There will be many variations in individual graphs. Although the webpage says it is for birth control, if you reverse it is is just as good for couples who are trying to get pregnant. good Luck.

How long does it take temperature to rise after ovulation?

It does not take long for your temperature to rise after ovulation. It can rise slightly the day of ovulation but will also continue to rise over the next few days. In order to confirm ovulation took place you will need a rise in temperature over three days.

How many eggs does a woman release every month during ovulation?

During ovulation, a woman typically releases one egg each month. This occurs as part of the menstrual cycle, where a mature follicle in the ovaries releases the egg into the fallopian tube. In some cases, a woman may release more than one egg, which can result in fraternal twins if both are fertilized. However, the standard is one egg per cycle.
