Ovulation Calculator
Your estimated ovulation day and the 6-day fertile window, from cycle dates — with the biology stated honestly.
The luteal phase (ovulation→period) is the stable half at ~14 days; the follicular half absorbs all cycle-length variation, which is why ovulation is counted backwards from the *next* period. Calendar estimates are exactly that — Wilcox's research found wide real-world variation; ovulation kits and BBT add precision when timing matters.
