Does ovulation happen right in the middle of the cycle?

With irregular cycles such as yours it becomes hard to predict ovulation. You can try using ovulation test kits..however that could become expensive for those long cycles.\n\nYou might want to consider trying a saliva ovulation microscope. They are reusable and for around $20.00, well worth the money. I've included a link on how to use them as well as a link for a good, inexpensive one

You *can't* get pregnant if you aren't ovulating (no egg, no pregnancy), and if you *are* ovulating, you will have a period.  However, it is possible that even though you *haven't* been ovulating, you could start at any time.  Therefore you have to assume you are potentially fertile.\n\nIf you want to know how to recognize when you are about to ovulate, please read _Taking Charge of Your Fertility_ by Toni Weschler.  It has lots of information that will help you figure out what is going on.

No, they used to use the rhythm system.  We learned it in the sex education class.  middle way between your periods the ovem [egg] comes down and you can only get pregnant those 2 days.  You will notice something in your underwear like snot.  That's it!  So your safe for the rest of the month. During your period, is even safer.  Count 12 to 15 days from the day your period starts.  Don't have sex then.\nThat's your most fertile time.

Contrary to what 2LTgrl51 says, it is possible for ovulation to take place more than once a month.  I have worked in the OB/GYN field for more than 18 years, and I can tell you of many instances where this has happened, such as, fraternal twins, etc.  Every woman does not have "textbook" periods and ovulation, and if she did, there would be no use for any birth control method because you could accurately predict when ovulation was occurring.  Whether it is "normal" or not, I would say that it can be "normal" if it is normal for that person.

For example, women with very low body fat, such as athletes, may cease to menstruate. The presence of menstruation does not prove that ovulation took place; women who do not ovulate may have menstrual cycles. Those anovulatory cycles tend to take place less regularly and show greater variation in cycle length. In addition, the absence of menstruation also does not prove that ovulation did not take place, because hormone disruptions in non-pregnant women can suppress bleeding on occasion. \n\n\nThere are a few african tribes whose women ovulate...but don't menstruate...reabsorbing the endometrium if conception does not occur during that cycle. The endometrium is reabsorbed into the body instead of breaking down into blood-like products and leaving the body.\n     Sorry I can't give you a site to go to. I grew up in West Africa...where I realized that there was a difference between some of the 'country' girls not swayed by the allure of the western style who never menstruate...and those who had left 'up country' to come to the big cities and started bleeding for the first time, within a couple of years of living the city life.\n    Some vegetarian women stop menstruating all together after first detoxifying their body. Years later menstraution drops off to a trickle, then nothing as the egg is reabsorbed by the body.

it could be ovulation pains since you ovulate about 12-14 days before your period.

The official answer is no, because according to what OBGYNs and other healthcare professionals have been taught you ovulate in the middle of your cycle. However this is not always accurate. Some women, myself included ovulate, at different times than that or even more than once a month. Their are conflicting viewpoints on this but this is one of the primary reasons some women do get pregnant while using that kind of birth control pill. You can find out when you ovulate. There are several methods to do this that you can find online. Or if this is a concern you can go back and talk to your healthcare provider about taking a different kind of pill that does not use a placebo or a different form of birth control. \n I am the mother of four children and have been pregnant six times. I have gotten pregnant before on birthcontrol pills for this reason, which is not all that uncommon. The statistics do not accurately represent these failures because the medical community tends to blame the failure on the woman taking the pills must have forgotten to take them. I am also a trained doula, certified breastfeeding educator and student midwife.

If you're talking about trying to conceive, it's not about when in the month you can have one, it's about your monthy cycle.  It's best to start trying 2 weeks after the first day of your cycle.  That puts you right in the middle of the "off season".  If this doesn't work, try purchasing a fertility monitor at your local drugstore in the woman's care isle.  See your doctor for more details.

When my husband and I were first trying to get pregnant it took us well over a year. We were assuming our most "fertile" days were during  the incorrect week of my cycle. Every woman is different. Buy an ovulation kit or monitor. We purchased one and were pregnant within a month. Turns out of I was ovulating at an "odd" time based off of my cycle. They work great and will give you the two best days to conceive.

That actually happens to me sometimes. It's normally during my ovulation time or the week before I start my period. I asked my dr about it & she said it's normal. If it gets heavier or lasts over a week, that's when you need to worry & contact your dr.

Around the time of ovulation.\n\nThis is the time where an egg is released from the ovaries and travels down the fallopian tube.  It then gets fertilised whilst in the tube and then embeds inself in the uterus wall lining.\n\nThe time when this happens is usually fourteen days after the completed menstrual cycle (i.e. fourteen days after the girl has finished her period).

There are many factors that influence getting pregnant, stress being the biggest one. One thing you can do is track your cycles which can determine when your most fertile time is. Ovulation usually occurs somewhere around the middle of your cycle. Once ejaculated, sperm live for up to 72 hours while the egg is only viable for 24 hours once released from the ovary. There are a few different ways to track your cycles. Drug stores carry ovulation tests which will tell you when you are ovulating. You can also purchase a basal thermometer, which will show a spike in temperature when you are ovulating. You can also keep track of your cervical mucus, which will become clear and stringy when you are ovulating. Some women also use an ovulation microscope that shows ferning when you are ovulating. You can also use a combination of these methods, in addition to using software that will not only keep track of your cycles, but also tell you when the optimum time is. I recommend femta at www.femta.com and ovusoft at www.ovusoft.com These are my two favorites and ones I recommend to clients. And most important relax and try to be as stress free as possible.

There are a few things you can do to track your ovulation.  There are a lot of webpages out there that have an ovulation calculator, in which if you know when the first day of your period is, you can plug it in and it will tell you approximately when you ovulate.  Here's a good one here  http://www.ovulation-calculator.com/\nAnother thing you can do is purchase a basal thermometer and when you see your temp increase, it means you are ovulating.  Another way is to keep an eye on your cervical mucus, which will get stringy and clear when you are ovulating.  Some people also use an ovulation microscope, which will show ferning when you are ovulating.  The link above, right above where you plug in the dates there is a little info about this.  And still others use a combination of mucus and temp, along with software that you can use to track your cycles, and it will also tell you when the best time to conceive.  The two programs I recommend is femta www.femta.com and ovusoft and ovusoft.com
