Does Length of Period Affect When You Ovulate? Posted: 11-14-07 05:40am
I just finished my period this morning.
been on it for 6 days and 5 of them were
really heavy. i usually only have a period
for 3 days and it's just medium.
does period length affect when you
ovulate? i ask because robbie is possibly
getting to come home again for the weekend
on 24th/25th november but i think i may of
already ovulated by then.
what do you think?

well, I'd be of the opinion that day 14 is
day 14, no matter how many days the actual
bleeding lasted for.
You count back 14 day from when you'd
expect your next period, and on an average
cycle length, you'd expect your next
period 28 days from the first day of
bleeding (not, for example, 3 weeks after
the last day of bleeding)
Good to see somebody I remember still on
here!!!!
Best of luck on the "home" weekend.

No Becky, you ovulate 12-14 days BEFORE
your nexte period. Every person is
different. I have a 26 day cycle most of
the time. I usually ovulate on cd 13 or
14 but sometimes day 12. My luteal phase
(after ovulation) is usually 12 or 13
days.
Have you thought about temping? I say
that just because you have all this time
before Robbie comes back and it would give
you an opportunity to study your body. If
you practice this month, then when he
comes home you will be an expert at your
fertility signs.
