This tool helps you estimate the length of your menstrual cycle accurately.
Cycle Estimator
Use this comprehensive cycle estimator to predict your next menstrual cycle, ovulation date, and fertile window. Fill in all the fields with your information and click “Calculate” to get your result.
How it Works
The cycle estimator takes into account your cycle length, period length, the start date of your last period, your usual ovulation day, and the length of your luteal phase. It uses this data to calculate your next period start date, your next ovulation date, and your fertile window (which is calculated as 5 days before ovulation to 1 day after ovulation).
How to Use It
- Enter your average cycle length in days.
- Enter the length of your period in days.
- Enter the start date of your last period.
- Enter your usual ovulation day (e.g., day 14 in a 28-day cycle).
- Enter the length of your luteal phase (typically 14 days).
- Click “Calculate” to see your next period start date, ovulation date, and fertile window.
Calculation Limitations
Please note that these calculations are based on average data and should be used as an estimate only. Individual cycles can vary month to month due to a variety of factors including stress, health, and lifestyle changes. Always consult with a healthcare provider for medical advice or concerns.
