How it is calculated
- Ovulation day = first day of last period + cycle length − 14 days
- Fertile window = 5 days before ovulation to 1 day after ovulation
- Next period = first day of last period + cycle length
Estimate only, not medical advice, and not a contraception method.
Worked example
First day of last period 10 January 2026, 28-day cycle:
- Ovulation: 24 January 2026
- Fertile window: 19 January to 25 January 2026
- Next period: 7 February 2026
Why your number may differ
Ovulation usually happens about 14 days before the next period, but irregular cycles make the estimate less reliable. This is not a contraception method. Estimate only, not medical advice.
