How many days does the ovulation period usually last?
Disease description:
I’ve been trying to conceive for six months without success. I’ve undergone preconception checkups, and all my test results are normal. I suspect that I may not be accurately timing intercourse around ovulation, which could be why I haven’t gotten pregnant yet. Could you tell me how many days the ovulation period typically lasts?

Hello,
If a woman wishes to increase her chances of conception, she must pay close attention to the timing of intercourse, as successful fertilization is influenced by numerous factors—and timing is especially critical.
Typically, a woman’s ovulation period occurs approximately one week after the onset of menstruation and extends up to about 14 days before the start of the next menstrual cycle. This fertile window generally lasts around 10 days, though its exact duration may vary depending on individual physiological factors.
We hope this information is helpful to you. Wishing you a happy and healthy life!
