How Do I Know When I’m Ovulating?
Disease description:
My husband and I have been married for over a year but haven’t conceived yet. We visited the hospital for examinations, and the doctor said there are no major issues—perhaps my ovulation is suboptimal. I’d like to ask: How can I tell if I’m ovulating?

Hello, determining whether you are ovulating is actually quite simple, as ovulation occurs in a predictable cycle. For the majority of women, the ovulation period falls approximately one week after menstruation ends and extends up to 14 days before the onset of the next menstrual period. In addition to estimating ovulation based on timing, you can also identify it through physical symptoms—for example, during ovulation, cervical mucus typically becomes noticeably stretchy and elastic (“egg-white” consistency).
