  • Try to use this ovulation calendar tool. http://www.softorbits.com/awc/ to trace your cycle and find the date of ovulation.

  • Even with a 28 day cycle, you may ovulate on day 11 or not until day 17 or 18 or even later. I have a 34 day cycle and ovulate on day 23. The day 14 ovulation is just a myth that the medical community came up with because many doctors do not even understand a woman's cycle.

  • No, that is a complete myth. On average, you will ovulate 10-16 days BEFORE the start of your next period. 14 is the "average" just as a 28 day cycle is the average. But you could actually ovulate even as late as day 18 as your period starts.

  • Most women with a 28 day cycle ovulate on or around day 14. So anywhere usually between day 13 and day 15. From what I have read, you actually ovulate 14 days before your first day of AF. For women on a 28 day cycle, it also works out to be 14 after first day of AF. For those on a 30 day cycle, I believe it would ovulate on or around day 16 of your cycle.

  • Nope, everyone is different. I actually ovulate 4 days after my period! I never would have known that without using the ovulation predictor kit, which also explains why it took me so long to get pregnant..I was having sex on the wrong days LOL

    good luck!

  • Maybe you did indeed ovulated late yesterday and the time that you tested ovulation did not occur as yet. But yes you always ovulate 14days after your af... if not then it means that your cycle may be experiencing a change which is completely normal for everybody.

  • I was told it's usually 14 to 15 days from the first day of your last period..You can also tell by your cervical mucus if you are ovulating..It's like an egg white type stuff.. Stretchy, watery, and clear.

  • No, that's only if you are not on birth control AND have a perfect cycle. Virtually no one has a perfect cycle. This is why it's possible to get pregnant at any point, even during your period.

  • It can come early or late. Good luck.

  • Everybody is different.

    Good luck :]
