- All it takes is just a drop of saliva
Knowing your ovulation cycle is important for your overall health and reproductive well-being. Whether you’re planning to start a family or simply want to know your body better, having a clear grasp of your ovulation cycle can help you to make informed decisions about your health and fertility.
The egg is only viable for about 24 hours after ovulation, making this the most fertile time of your cycle.
Hormonal changes during ovulation can influence your well-being, from mood to skin condition.
Regular ovulation is a sign that your reproductive system is functioning properly.
Ovulation can be detected by various signs not readily discernible by anyone other than the woman experiencing them. Women nearing ovulation experience changes in their cervix and the mucus it produces along with their basal body temperature.
Many women also experience secondary fertility signs including Mittelschmerz (pain associated with ovulation), a heightened sense of smell and sexual desire in the days immediately leading up to ovulation.
Some studies suggest women subtly improve their facial attractiveness during ovulation.
During this phase is when the lining of your uterus comes out through your vagina. What comes out is a mix of blood, slippery fluid called mucus, and tiny bits of the uterus lining. Most people have their period for 3 to 7 days.

At this phase is when the mature egg is released from the ovary. It typically occurs around day 14 of a 28-day cycle, but this can vary widely among women.
After ovulation, the ruptured follicle transforms into the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone. This hormone prepares the uterus for pregnancy. If you do get pregnant, you won’t have a period. If you don’t get pregnant, you’ll have your period, and the whole cycle will start over again.
Once your egg has been released from the ovary, it is swept into the fallopian tube. Sperm that reach the egg while in the fallopian tube surrounds it and releases a digestive enzyme to weaken the wall of the mother egg. When a sperm penetrates the outer wall of the egg, the race is over. Having sexual intercourse any other time of the month to get pregnant is less productive because of this narrow window of opportunity.

To increase your chances of conceiving through a natural contraceptive method, you should know your ovulation cycle which can vary from person to person.
Sperm can only live up to 72 hours, so having intercourse within 72 hours before ovulation, the day of ovulation, and/or the day after ovulation can significantly increase your chances to conceive, but only if you know your ovulation cycle.
