Ovulation Timing with a Short Cycle: Understanding Your Cycle Length


Question
i have a hard time trying to figure this out i have my periods for four to six days when would i ovulate and i get it on the 22 when would i ovulate?

Answer
If your period cycle is only 22 days, it's hard to say when you ovulate.  If that is indeed the case, you probably have a case of shortened post leutal phase which means there is not enough progesterone in your body which is produced after ovulation.  without the progesterone you will not be able to get pregnant.  The phase after ovulation has to be more than 10 days long, usually it's around 14 days.  If this isn't what your question is about, please ask me again with more details.
