These days, girls begin to menstruate when they are about 10 to 14 years old. Women will continue to menstruate until they are around 45 to 55, when the menopause begins. A woman will have approximately 500 periods in her lifetime. A menstrual cycle is counted from the first day of 1 period to the first day of the next period. The average menstrual cycle is 28 days long, but cycles range between 21 and 35 days in adults, and from 21 to 45 days in young teens. THE BEST TIME TO HAVE SEXUAL INTERCOURSE The fertile fertility window generally lasts six days – the five days before ovulation and ovulation day itself. A woman's most fertile days are the 1 to 2 days before the egg is released, and the day of ovulation. Think you can only get pregnant from sex during ovulation? Believe it or not, a man's sperm can survive for three to five days in a woman's reproductive tract. The chances of getting pregnant from making love after ovulation are nearly zero.

LISTEN TO YOUR BODY: Cramps in your lower abdominal area, usually on one side, can indicate ovulation. Some women have a light bleeding during ovulation. CHART YOUR BASAL BODY TEMPERATURE: During the first half of a cycle, your temperature will be lower. A temperature spike points to ovulation. DO YOU NOTICE CHANGES IN YOUR CERVIX? As ovulation approaches the cervix pulls back up, softens a bit, and opens just a little to let the sperm through on their way to their target. AND HOW ABOUT YOUR CERVICAL MUCUS? It may sound yucky, but a woman's mucus becomes clear and stretchy around ovulation. This is very telling! YOU CAN BUY AN OVULATION KIT: The most expensive method, but also one of the most reliable.
