If my Period is longer than usual, does that change my ovulation days?

Question

my period is around 7 - 10 days long........it used to be always 5 days long, but if my period is now longer than usual, does that change my ovulation days?

my cycle was also always 28 days long, and now its a couple of days longer...can that affect the ovulation days too?

Answer 1

You poor thing, having them for 5 days is cruel enough for us, let alone them extending themselves for a few more days.

This wouldn't affect your ovualation that much, only by a day or two, but then, it would be best to go to the doctors and find out why this is happening and also have a blood test,, just to be sure.

Good Luck

Answer 2

The duration of bleeding will NOT affect your ovulation date. Ovulation is always around 14 days before your NEXT period, so it seems like you might have shifted slightly form a CD14 ovulation to CD16. Changes throughout our menstrual lives are normal; some are affected by stress, others by medical issues, but most by the natural hormone fluctuations that we go through over the years. I suddenly started spotting a few days before AF when I reached 30 and this, apparently is normal. My 5-day periods became 3-day as a result and my normally heavy 1st day because the 2nd day. Strange .... but normal.

Answer 3

how long you bleed for wont change the day you ovulate..but the length of your cycle does if your cycle is say 2 days longer then add on two days to when you would ovulate example 28 dc ovulation day14/30dc ovulation day 16

Answer 4

No, you will ovulate around 14 days after the FIRST day of your period, regardless of its length.  Yes, a change in cycle length affects ovulation of  course.

Answer 5

probably, I don't know when your ovulation days are, but Im sure that by adding a day you've added a day to other parts of your cycle as well
