WHAT IS THE FERTILE PERIOD?

Ovulation occurs approximately two weeks before the first day of your period. A woman who has menses every 28 days will ovulate on the 14th day of her cycle. A woman who has periods every 32 days will ovulate on the 18th day of her cycle. Since the day you ovulate might change, it helps if you have sex from a week before to a week after the expected day of ovulation. Timing sex with the date of ovulation can be sometimes stressful and having regular intercourse throughout the month is desirable.
