The frequency of ovulation in a particular woman can also change under the influence of various factors:

How ovulation occurs
It all starts with the ripening of follicles in one of the ovaries. In one of them, which will dominate the remaining, the development of an egg will begin. The egg at the time of readiness goes to the fallopian tube, after the follicle shell bursts. It was the period, between a surge of hormone, which is responsible for the ripening of the egg, and the gap of the follicle shell, and there is ovulation. This process lasts about 36-48 hours.

- The easiest, but not a reliable way is a calendar calculation. This method will suit those who have a regular cycle. Calculating the middle of the cycle, you can approximately assume the beginning of ovulation.
- One of the cheap ways to determine ovulation is the measurement of basal (rectal) temperature. Measurements are carried out in the morning without getting out of bed. All indicators are made on a sheet of paper. Such a schedule will help to determine the races of the indicator, and accordingly, the start of the exit process of the egg. As a rule, the difference in temperatures is half a degree.

If you chose this method, then acting according to the instructions for the test, you can easily and quickly determine the offensive of ovulation. To do this, in the dust cup, lower the test strip, wait for the specified time and follow the result with the control strip. If the indicator barely distinguishes - ovulation has not yet occurred, or vice versa, has already ended. When the tag on the test is bright and clear - this is a signal on the ripening of the egg.
- If at home you doubt your abilities or do not trust the tests, you can seek help to doctors. With the help of an ultrasound, a specialist will be able to track the process of ovulation and its deadlines. But to repeat the ultrasound procedure is necessary every 2-3 days before the exit of the egg and a day after.
- The doctor will be able to determine the ovulation by the method of feeling the uterus, as it changes its texture and tone throughout the menstrual cycle.
