Ovulation Calender/Calculator/Predictors

There are also other ways for women that are trying to conceive to find out when they are ovulation. One of them is keeping track of your BBT (Basal Body Temperature). Tracking your BBT is really easy, and has to be done every day. First thing in the morning you are taking you temperature with a thermometer, before you even get out of bed are even speaking and also making sure you have at lease 3 hours of sleep. For most people that already have kids this will be a little hard, do to you getting up to check on the kids are take them to the bathroom.What you are looking for is to see a change of at least .4 degrees Fahrenheit or more to tell if you are ovulating. Make sure that you keep the thermometer and a note pad at the side of your bed so that you can write down your temperature so that you want forget.

Using Ovulation test strips can be helpful as well, as this tracks your LH (Luteinizing hormone) through your urine, also done every morning. Elevated quantities causes ovulation (the release of the egg - or ovum - from the ovarian follicle). During the menstrual cycle only a small amount of LH is made, but in the middle of the cycle LH briefly and dramatically increases. This increase is called the "LH surge" and precedes ovulation. Conception is most likely to occur within thirty-six hours following the LH surge. The LH Ovulation Test is specifically designed to detect your LH surge - the time when you are likely to ovulate. If you receive a positive on an test strip test, you are in your most fertile phase of your menstrual cycle.



Ovulation Predictors/ calculators/ calendars are commonly use to recognized and best-guess methods to help estimate the days you are most likely to ovulate, and tell you your best chances to conceive. Most women have 28-32 day cycles and ovulation can take place during days 11-21 of the menstrual cycle. These days represent average cycles; many women have slightly shorter cycles and ovulate earlier and others have longer monthly cycles with ovulation occurring later in the month. So what you would do is put the first day of your lat period and the length of it. Then you would bet a calendar that would have the days that your most likely to be fertile on.
