can you get pregnant if you ovulate late ???

Question

My ovulation dates have been sort of all over the place. My period WAS due on the 22--BUT, then I ovulated the 18 & 19. Could there have been a chance of pregnancy during that weird ovulation time frame? Or is my period probably just late? I had sex on the 18 and no period as of yet.

Answer

The date your period shows is based on when you ovulated. If you ovulate late (because of stress, or a follicule that needed more time to develop or whatever) then your period will also be late with it. That's because the luteal phase, the time between ovulation and period stays constant within one or two days for the vast majority of women. It's the first half of your cycle, the follicular phase that tends to vary. So if you know you ovulated late, then no you aren't late on your period yet. Good luck!
