Ovulation

There was this one time that I had experienced spotting midway through my cycle (about 13 days after my periods) and I remember freaking out completely. I hadn’t been on pills nor was I experiencing any kind of other health issues. So before consulting my doctor, I decided to do the obvious- I googled it! I found various websites but Parenthoodbliss website cleared all my doubt on spotting during pregnancy.

I’ll share a summary of what I learnt from the blog and my doctor’s appointment the other day

• Estrogen is one of the most critical hormones in ovulation.
• Initially, estrogen is low during your period and rises through the first part of the menstrual cycle.
• When estrogen reaches its maximum it signals the release of the luteinizing hormone (where the ovary releases an egg).
• As soon as the luteinizing hormone matches the level of estrogen, there is a swift drop in estrogen that destabilizes the endometrium, the lining of the uterus, and also causes a little shed off the lining.

Spotting during ovulation can be considered as a good indicator that your hormones are functioning as they should. The American Journal of Epidemiology has reported that the levels of estrogen, luteal progesterone, and luteinizing hormone (LH) during ovulation is higher in women who experience mid-cycle ovulation spotting.

A human egg is scientifically proven to live only 12-24 hours after going out from ovary (ovulation).

There is ALWAYS a chance that you can become pregnant after engaging in intercourse ... NO matter what preventive measures you take ...

You cramp because during ovulation your endometrium is shedding due to the lack of use (there's no embryo for it to nourish) so it sheds and the blood exits the Vagina. The unfertilized egg also sheds and bleeds. Naturally that would hurt to have blood flowing through your pelvis!

Besides a ovulation test, the other ways that you can tell you are ovulating is by taking your BBT (Basal Body Temprature) first thing in the morning with a digital or BBT thermometer, checking your cervical mucus for changes..When you are ovulating you usually have watery to eggwhite cervical mucus, and last but not least checking your cervix. If it is soft, high, open, wet..SHOW..that is a good indication that you are ovulating..

Your ovulation test may be coming back negative for several reasons. Most commonlly is probablly because you simply are not ovulating. Your body has a small window of ovulation usually occurring seven days before the start of your period and seven days after your period. So naturally there is a two week period where you are simply not ovulating

Depends on the circumstances of the penis. Was there precum? Maybe. Was there ejaculation? The chances are greater that you get pregnant during your ovulation, but some women get pregnant anytime of the month. well, just think of it this way--when you ovulate is in fact the ONLY time in which you can get pregnant. and it is possible to ovulate at any time.

Ovulation is a one day thing. To get pregnant you need to have sperm inside of your body waiting for the egg or you need to have sex the day of ovulation and at the latest the day after ovulation to become pregnant. Keep in mind sperm can live 3-5 days in ideal conditions inside of the woman's body. However, once the egg is released (ovulation occurs) the egg is only able to be fertilized for upto 24-36 hours and then expires. To become pregnant your best bet is to have sex the day before ovulation, the day of ovulation, and the day after ovulation. You are, however, considered fertile up to 4-5 days before ovulation occurs...due to the fact that sperm can survive in the reproductive organs of a woman for a few days.

no, your Ovaries will not swell as such. however the hormones you produce during pregnancy will stimulate and preserve something inside the ovary called the corpus lutem - this secretes oestrogen in order to maintain the lining of the womb to make a suitable environment for a baby to grow. although your ovaries do not swell, a lot happens inside them which may feel strange to start with in the early stages of pregnancy.

There are many conditions that could cause your uterus to be sore. They can range from fibroids, to cancer, to an infection, or pregnancy. The only way to know for certain is to see a doctor.

spotting after ovulation is An implantation bleed would be seen 6-10 dasy after ovualtion. Many women have a clear discharge a lot of the time so you may or may not be pregnant.

Your symptoms of pregnancy will usually appear anywhere from the first week of your expected period to 1-2 weeks after your first week of expected period. Your first signs of pregnancy most commonly include: * missed period * tender/swollen breasts * change in color of the breasts * fatigue * nausea/vomiting * increased sense of smell * weight gain

It use to be you couldn'test unless you were 10 days past you missed period. But with technology today you can test between 5 10 or 20days. Check out some of the pgtest at your local wallmart or the storenear you

Yes. If you are ovulating you are more likely to become pregnant. Many women have become pregnant from pre-cum. If you don't want to become pregnant I would recommend condoms and/or a form of birth control.

Conception would occur the day that the act of sexual intercourse resulted in an egg being fertilized with semen. In other words, the day that the sexual activity took place that resulted in pregnancy. If a woman had sex with a man once, and went about her life, and found out a month later that she were pregnant, the day she had sex with the man is the day of conception for the baby in her womb.

If the egg becomes fertilized, yes.

What you were seeing was probably ovulation.... Some women can have light spotting or even bleed at that time. Anytime you have unprotected sex when you are ovulating, you stand a VERY good chance of pregnancy -- increased probability. If you suspect you are pregnant, you will need to take a HPT to confirm.

Your cervix will usually lower and become more firm shortly after ovulation, but it can stay high and soft for quite some time for some people. If you are pregnant and it has come back down, it will move back up and become soft again. Most likely, yours just has not come down from ovulation. As far as the cramps--it could be early implantation, but it's still a little early for that, or it could be due to hormones. I had the same thing this cycle, from 2-6dpo, and of course 2dpo is way too early for implantation. Happy to help!

Most ovulation kits or fertility monitors have a high degree of accuracy that goes from 83 to 90% accuracy. Some use urine sampling while others use saliva testing.

The best way to predict ovulation is use the temperature method in conjunction with ovulation kits or ovulation monitors, this is especially true for women who have irregular cycles. Learning how to do fertility charting is quite easy, it just requires determination and consistency.

A normal ovulation is when your LH phase is between 10-16 days long. This phase can not be counted from the 1st day of your period rather is is counted from you ovulation date to your period. This shows that the uterus has a healthy environment for immplantation. To determine when you ovulate you must temp or use OPK (Ovulation prediction kits)

A milky white discharge can be a sign of healthy ovulation, as it often indicates the presence of fertile cervical mucus, which is typically stretchy and clear or milky around ovulation. This type of discharge helps facilitate sperm movement through the cervix. However, it's important to consider other factors, as discharge can vary among individuals and cycles. If you have concerns about your ovulation or reproductive health, it’s best to consult a healthcare professional.

yes my gf had implantation two days of ovulation.it was pink blood and then brown for two days

You should assume that you no longer have protection from Depo Provera when you are late for the next shot. If you don't want to get pregnant, start using another birth control method at that time.
