What is Ovulation?
Ovulation is the process of releasing the mature female egg from the ovaries. It will result from the combination of different hormonal changes in the body. This includes the release of GnRH from the brain to release the FSH and LH from the pituitary gland. The release of these two hormones has different bodily functions—especially in the ovaries and the womb.
However, there is a sudden rise in the LH hormone level 12 hours before the release of the ovum. This sudden rise in LH level is called the LH surge.
LH surge will lead to a sudden rise in estrogen levels and the release of an egg (ovulation).
How to calculate date of Ovulation
The date of the ovulation is generally on the 14th day of the women with the 28-day cycle. However, in women with different lengths of the menstrual cycle, the ovulation date differs from that of women with 28-day cycles.
If you have a 22-day cycle, you will have ovulation on the 8th day of the cycle. Likewise, you will have ovulation on the 18th day if your cycle is 32 days long.
