What is Ovulation?
Ovulation is the process when a mature egg is released from the ovary, making it available for fertilization. This typically occurs about 14 days before your next period starts.
The fertile window is the 6-day period when you're most likely to conceive. It includes the 5 days before ovulation and the day of ovulation itself. Sperm can survive in the female reproductive tract for up to 5 days, which is why the fertile window extends before ovulation.
