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.

At what point of the painful ovulation is intercourse best for conception before the pain during the pain or shortly after the pain?

Pain during ovulatory times can come before while the follicle is filling with fluid, during while the follicle is actually rupturing to release the egg, or following due to the formation of the corpus luteum. At ovulation, the ovum (egg) is dropped into the tube where it awaits sperm. If sperm are on hand and penetrate the egg fertilization occurs. Your most fertile times are about 3 days before ovulation and the day after ovulation just to make sure you've got it covered. You can tell ovulation with the great new digital ovulation predictor kits they have out now, you should also see a change in your cervical mucus where it turns into an eggwhite consistency a few days before ovulation. That mucus is where the sperm will thrive. It provides a nice environment for the swimmers...they can feed off of the nutrients in it to make the journey up through the uterus thru the tube to the egg. I would say any of those three days leading up to ovulation and the actual ovulation day itself and you should have everything covered.

I had a small cramping pain in the stomach after 8 days of ovulation Which I have only during your periodsCan anyone tell me whether you are pregnment?

It could be implantation cramps. You should take a home pregnancy test. If it is negative and you haven't gotten your period within a week, take another test.

Condom broke the day of ovulation-negative pregnancy tests- period is now 2 days late with faint brownish mucus-my period is never late and i have no signs of cramping-sign of pregnancy?

Could be your period coming soon, I know 2 days before I got my period I had spotting. When you hit the 7 day mark on being late then go get a First Response 5 days sooner (rated number 1 most accurate on the news) test and if it's negative go call your doctor and he'll do a blood test and take it from there. The only way to tell for sure if you are pregnant is by pregnancy testing and blood test. I hope you get the results from testing that you want and good luck and wish you the best. :)

What does ovulation have to do with pregnancy?

Ovulation is the time when your egg drops through your filopian tubes and can be fertilized by a sperm that enters through your cervix. This egg that drops is only good for about two days. If it isn't fertilized then that's why you have your period, to flush it out naturally.

What could cause a weird feeling in ur ovaries or uterus not a pain just a feeling after having unprotected sex on ur ovulation day and having a heavy thin milky white discharge could u be pregos?

The "weird"pain you are referring to sounds like it IS ovulation. The "discharge" always happens after you ovulate. * note* You are most likely to become pregnant when your "discharge" is clear and stringy.Thus enabling sperm to "travel" faster to your uterus.

If you just start doing the BBT temping for conceiving at 9 days past ovulation it was 99.1 could that be a sign of pregnancy?

BBT is a reliable way to know if you are pregnant, ovulating, etc.

However, it must be taken with a really accurate thermometer, a BBT one is best. At the same time every morning, Before so much as sitting up. Hit the alarm clock, stick thermometer in mouth and stay still until it beeps. Not having a good nights sleep, not taking it at the same time, and moving around before taking it all affect the temp and mess with the accuracy.

To Chart your temps, use an online charting program, because they can keep up with everything for you.

If your temperature stays above the base line (the highest temp before you ovulated) past when you are suppose to start your period, it is a high indicator for pregnancy and you should take a HPT. To be able to tell this, you have to start BEFORE you ovulate.
Start on the first day of your period, and take it at the same time every morning. It will fluctuate a little, but not much until you ovulate. Just after ovulation it will spike, sometimes as much as two degrees but usually just a degree or a half a degree. It will stay elevated until your next period. You can even tell when your period will start before it does because your temp will fall that morning to a point below the highest point prior to ovulation. It should stay elevated at least 12 days, if it does not you may have a fertility issue called a shortened lutenal phase.
If it stays elevated past your normal cycle length, then take a test because you may be pregnant.

Be cautious with this though, temps will tell you you are pregnant even if it is a chemical pregnancy, so you may want to wait a few days to be sure it is a real pregnancy and that it "sticks".

What exactly is ovulation and is it when you are more fertile or not since you've seen mixed answers?

Ovulation occurs about 2 weeks before a period is due, about 2 weeks after the start of a period if you have a 28 day cycle. It is when the egg is released from the woman's overy and begins its passage into the uterus (womb. If the woman has unprotected sex around the time of ovulation it mneans that the sperm will be in the tubes as the egg is passing through and therefore there is a better chance of conception.

If your husband returns from a trip during your period can he stimulate ovulation?

I must admit I am no expert on the topic but I have come across the topic in many biology classes. Although it wouldn't surprise me, I can't say for sure that his returning will stimulate ovulation. However, there has been much research done on the male response to temporary seperations. It has been found that males will substantially increase the amount of ejaculate after returning to a lover via a natural response to counter act any foreign male sperm that may have entered the female during his absence. In a similar way, ovulation may be induced by the returning of a male counterpart....who knows, humans are very complex organisms that respond to stimuli on many differnet levels. Hope that helps. You could look further into the subject by accessing a medical journal (PubMed) via any university library....or online. Good luck!
