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.

Is it possible that ovulation time alters due to stopping the pill?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's unusual to have your period on the same numerical date of the month when you're on birth control pills. Since the pill goes on a cycle of 28 days, and a month has anywhere from 28 to 21 days, you'd normally have your period every 28 days, which means if you had it on the 21st of July, you'd expect it on the 18th of August, the 15th of september, the 13th of October, the 10th of November. There is no reason to expect your period to follow the calendar on or off the pill, since neither your ovaries nor the pill know that "Thirty days hath September..." etc.

How soon does the egg need to be fertilized after ovulation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

During ovulation multiple eggs can be released but eggs will only live around 24 hours, even with multiple eggs produced at most there is only a viable egg present for 48 hours.

This is one of the great things about reproduction, around a week leading up to ovulation the cervix produces mucus that allow the sperm to swim up where they can swim into the fallopian tubes and then hibernate until the woman ovulates, hormonal signals then tell the sperm to 'wake up'. Thus rather than there only being one day when a couple can have sex to get pregnant, there are up to 10 fertile days.

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Ovulation is always 16-18 days after the first day of your cycle. For example, if you have began your cycle on Monday, February 11; begain to count that day until you have reached the sixteenth or eighteenth day.

This is not necessarily true for everyone though. Some women, like myself, ovulate late.

What position should your cervix be after ovulation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

During ovulation the cervix is high, soft and open. After ovulation the cervix is low, firm and closed.

It is not as simple as that. In some cases the cervix goes the other way. Mucus production is a more reliable sign.

"Some of the problems with MI (Manual inspection of the cervix position) were: difficulty with diagnosis, lack of time and space to practice it everyday, anxiety over possible infection and/or pain caused by touching, and ignorance about sexual organs. In timing ovulation, the accuracy rate of the new rhythm method was 87.9% in BBT+CM+MI, 75.9% in BBT+CM, and 51.7% in BBT only. In 85.7% the external uterine orifice raised at ovulation, while in 14.3% it lowered. Average shift in position from the lowest to the highest was 2.4cm-2.5cm. Other aspects of the uterine orifice which can be manually inspected are degree of its aperture and hardness."

How many days before a period does ovulation stop?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The menstrual cycle of an average woman is a 28-day cycle. It is divided into four major phases.

# Menstruation phase: This is when a woman menstruates or what we usually call bleeding. The first day of menstruation is considered as the first day of the menstrual cycle. It is normally considered as a 7-day phase. In this phase, the endometrium tissue of a woman's uterus breaks down and is removed from the body as menstrual blood.

# Proliferation phase: This phase occurs from day 8 to day 13 of the menstrual cycle. The endometrium prepares itself for implantation and tissue starts building up again. Meanwhile, the egg cell is ready for ovulation by the end of this phase. # Ovulation phase: It occurs on the 14th day of the menstrual cycle. In this phase, the egg is released from the ovary and taken up by the fallopian tube. # Post-ovualation phase: During this phase, if the egg is not fertilised, the ovulation follicle of the ovary gets converted to corpus luteum. During this phase, the hormone levels of oestrogen fall. At the end of the phase, the endometrial tissue starts to break down. So, ovulation occurs roughly 14 days before a period(menstruation).

How long does it take for an egg to leave your body after ovulation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

After being released from the ovary, the egg is swept into the fallopian tube by the fimbria, which is a fringe of tissue at the end of each fallopian tube. After about a day, an unfertilized egg will disintegrate or dissolve in the fallopian tube.

Please note: Fertilization by a spermatozoon, when it occurs, usually takes place well inside the fallopian tubes. A fertilized egg immediately begins the process of embryogenesis, or development. The developing embryo takes about three days to reach the uterus and another three days to implant into the endometrium. It has usually reached the blastocyst stage at the time of implantation.

Is your next menstrual cycle supposed to always start 14 days after ovulation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Menstrual cycle consists of two phase: follicular phase‎ and luteal phase. Luteal phase starts the day after ovulation and ends the day before you get your menstruation. Many women have a luteal phase that is about 14 days long, but it can range from 10-16 days. So, if you have 28 day cycle and length of luteal phase 14 days - ovulation occurs on the 14 day of the cycle. If you have 31 day cycle, and the length of luteal phase 14 days - ovulation takes place on the 17 day. If you have 31 day cycle but the length of luteal phase 16 days - ovulation occurs on the 15 day. It's more easy to use calendar to predict ovulation, e.g. i use this one www.ladys-calendar.com
