What is Ovulation?
Ovulation is the process in the middle of women menstrual cycle when the mature ovarian follicle ruptures and leaves an ovum.
The time surrounding ovulation is called the ovulatory phase or the periovulatory period. Several days near ovulation is the fertile phase.
Only at that time the conception is possible.
In average ovulation occurs at the fourteenth day of menstrual cycle (general twenty-eight day cycle).
The day of ovulation can vary from the average. So ovulation can happen somewhere between the tenth and nineteenth day of women’s cycle.
Why it is so Important to Know when Ovulation Happens?

a month (usual these are 3-4 days of periovulatory period). This is why many pairs cannot have a child just when they stop protecting from a pregnancy.
