Frequently Asked Questions

The Menstrual Period Calculator predicts your cycle by using the start dates of your previous periods and the average length of your cycle (typically 28 days). It estimates future period dates and ovulation windows based on this data, helping you plan for upcoming cycles.

The ovulation window is the time during your cycle when you’re most fertile, typically 5 days before ovulation through 1-2 days after. It’s important for those trying to conceive or avoid pregnancy, as it indicates the best time for conception or when to take extra precautions.

The calculator’s accuracy depends on the regularity of your cycle and the accuracy of the data you provide. If your cycles vary significantly (e.g., more than 8 days difference between cycles), the predictions may be less accurate. It’s best used as a guide, not a definitive prediction.
