I'm trying to get pregnant. What should I know about ovulation?

Ovulation is the release of an egg from the ovary, and it typically occurs 14 days after the beginning of your period. During ovulation, you may experience a sharp increase in fertility symptoms such as breast tenderness, bloating, and mood swings. It's important to track your menstrual cycle and keep a record of when you ovulate so that you can time intercourse accordingly. Additionally, if you are trying to conceive, you should use protection during the fertile window, which is the three days around ovulation.
