In women who have a regular menstrual cycle of 28 days, the fertile period begins on the 11th day after menstruation and lasts until the 17th day, which are the best days to get pregnant.
For example: if menstruation came on the 10th, the woman's fertile period after menstruation will be between the 20th and the 26th, and her most fertile day will be the 23rd, as it will be the central date of the fertile period.
Check out in the video below how the fertile period is calculated:

When is the fertile period in unregulated menstruation
In the case of an irregular menstrual cycle, such as when menstruation comes 2-3 times a month, or with an interval greater than 30 days, the period should be calculated taking into account the last 6 months of the cycle. The woman should identify the shortest and longest break periods.
For example:
- If the shortest cycle in the last 6 months was 27 days: 27 - 18 = 9 If the longest cycle in the last 6 months was 31 days: 31 - 11 = 20
In this case, the fertile period must be between the 9th and 20th of the month.
When is the fertile period in women taking contraceptives
The woman who takes the birth control pill correctly does not have a fertile period and cannot become pregnant while taking this medication. However, if the pill is forgotten, the woman can become pregnant if she has sex without a condom or other contraceptive method.
Signs that confirm the fertile period
Knowing what signals the body emits is also one of the ways to discover the fertile period and this is particularly important for women who have irregular periods. The signs and symptoms of the fertile period are:
- Vaginal mucus similar to egg white, in greater quantity than usual, clear and not very thick; Small increase in body temperature. If the normal is 36ºC, in the fertile period it can reach 36.5ºC, for example; Increased sexual appetite; There may be some discomfort in the lower abdomen.
Those who wish to become pregnant must have intercourse on the days when these symptoms are present because the chances of becoming pregnant thus increase.
