How to Recognize the Signs of Fertility

If you are trying to conceive, the first thing you need to learn is how to recognize your fertile time of month. This will help you conceive quicker than leaving it entirely to chance. There are only a few days of optimal fertility each month and determining which your most fertile days are increases the likelihood of conception.

Determining the date of ovulation isn’t always easy. There is a common myth that says ovulation occurs 14 days after the beginning of the cycle. This is not accurate. Actually, ovulation occurs 14 days before the beginning of the next cycle. In theory, if you had an extremely regular 28 day cycle, day 14 should be ovulation day.

However, many women don’t have a cycle this regular. In some cases, the exact length can vary by a couple days from cycle to cycle. This would make determining the date of ovulation more difficult. Fortunately, there are some common changes that occur in the days leading up to ovulation. You can observe these signs in your body to help predict ovulation.
