There are many ways to find out whenovulation occurs. You can conduct special tests, measure basal temperature, take a blood test from a vein for hormones. But despite the apparent availability of such methods, women want to know how to feel ovulation without medical methods. What symptoms can you tell that it has occurred? Why do women need this? Not everyone uses permanent contraception, many prefer barrier methods or even practice interrupted intercourse. Feeling the onset of ovulation, a woman can protect herself from unwanted pregnancy.

How does ovulation occur?

Ovulation is a physiological process,occurring in the female body. At this time, the follicle bursts, and an egg comes out of the ovary, rushes into the fallopian tube and begins to move towards the uterus. If, after the egg enters the uterus, it meets a sperm, conception occurs. A girl begins to build follicles even at the "project stage", when the most modern medical equipment does not yet know the sex of the developing fetus. Meanwhile, in the future girl, follicles are laid at 6 weeks, about 300,000 cells, the size of a micron. It is difficult to imagine, the woman does not yet guess who she will have, a girl or a boy, does not have time to imbue herself with the thought that she will soon become a mother, and nature has already thought about the continuation of the family.

Does the woman feel the changes taking place with her?

It is worth clarifying right away that a healthy womanreproductive age, it is impossible to feel ovulation as a physiological process in most cases. If she has gynecological problems, then the release of the egg due to the contraction of the fallopian tube will be painful for her. In what case does this happen? When there are:

Inflammatory processes in the ovaries.

Spikes of fallopian tubes.

Endocrine diseases.

The pain may stop within a fewhours or last for two days, be nagging or sharp. In some cases, you even have to resort to painkillers. There are many modern pain relievers, but most gynecologists advise limiting yourself to no-shpa. This is a proven drug, it effectively relieves spasms, and rarely has side effects. To figure out when ovulation occurs, you need to analyze your condition during the cycle. And you will certainly be able to notice some regular physiological and psychological changes in your own condition. A woman can note a regular surge of energy that coincides with certain days of the cycle. This is a sure sign that ovulation is occurring. It is during it that estrogen is released, a hormone that improves mood and ... stimulates attraction to the opposite sex. You can also find out that the egg has left the follicle by the characteristic changes in vaginal discharge. They become liquid, almost transparent. During urination, a woman often notices how mucus literally flows out of her. These changes begin two to three hours before the egg is released and continue for two to three days. If a drop of blood is released during ovulation or the discharge is pinkish, there is nothing to worry about. This is simply a woman's individual reaction to a physiological process. Although this happens more often if a woman has a fibroid.

Hormonal cycle

Ovulation ideally occurs on specific days of the menstrual cycle. It is divided into several phases.

The initial phase is called follicular. After the end of the critical days, the oocytes begin to form in the follicles.

A week after the start of maturation, the main follicle is released - the Graafian follicle. It is in it that the future egg cell is born. The phase is called ovulatory.

A week later, an egg is hatched from the graafovaya bubble. Her life is on average from a day to three, but it happens that her activity continues for five days. This is the phase of ovulation.

The last phase of the cycle is the corpus luteum phase. The ruptured follicle gathers into a cluster, like a closing flower corolla. It accumulates the lutein pigment and changes color.

If pregnancy does not occur, then the eggis rejected by the body together with the endometrium that has accumulated on the walls of the uterus during this period. This is how the menstrual cycle proceeds in an ideal case. Its normal duration varies from 21 to 35 days. Most women have their period within 28 days, plus or minus five. With this periodicity, ovulation occurs approximately on the 14th day. If a woman is healthy, she is not affected by external and internal factors that cause pathology, then the cycle is maintained almost unchanged. In case of a cycle disorder, ovulation can shift and even disappear completely. Cycle fluctuations are associated not only with health. Its course, occurrence and duration are influenced by many factors.

• Changing the diet, including diet. When you discard "extra" kilograms of reproductive capacity can be lost completely. If a woman has constant fluctuations in weight in one direction or another, she may lose the ability to become a mother.
• Change of climatic zones.
• Emotional state, especially susceptibility to frequent stress.
• Excessive physical activity.

Hormonal imbalance and age-relatedchanges directly related to them shift ovulation. Some medications that do not contain hormones block it. There is no ovulation during pregnancy either. Some women believe that an egg cannot mature during lactation and do not use contraception when breastfeeding. The ability to conceive may resume a month after the birth of the child. At the same time, the body itself does not have time to fully recover from the previous pregnancy. Therefore, when starting sexual activity after childbirth, it is necessary to carefully use contraception if you do not immediately plan to give the baby a younger brother or sister.

Medical methods to learn about the onset of ovulation

One of the most "ancient" methods -Basal temperature measurement. During the cycle, temperature values ​​in the anus are regularly measured in the morning and a graph is plotted. At the time of ovulation, the temperature rises, albeit slightly, by two to four divisions. But on the graph, you can see a constant ovulatory jump. This is the most favorable time for conception, but the most dangerous for unwanted pregnancy. The next method is a blood test from a vein for hormones. Before the follicle enters the fallopian tube, the amount of luteinizing hormone in the blood is significantly increased. A modern method of detecting ovulation using a test is based on the same principle. Only an increase in the amount of luteinizing hormone is recorded in the urine. An ultrasound examination will accurately show the onset of ovulation. It can also be used to track how the egg descends through the tube into the uterus. Women want to feel the moment of ovulation in order to calculate the optimal time for conception or the most "dangerous" day of the cycle. But there are also those who need to know the exact moment of follicle release in order to find out who will be born later, a girl or a boy? According to one theory, it is believed that if a sperm enters the body before the egg is released, then the probability of a girl being born is maximum. Allegedly, cells "with girls" are more viable from the first moment of existence, and cells "with boys" die off before the egg is released. Whether this is true or not, science has not yet established.
