Does late ovulation mean a late period?

Question

I normally ovulate day 16 of my 29 day cycle. I track with opk. This month I didn’t get a positive opk until day 20 of my cycle- does that mean my period will be late?

Answer

Sure does! Your period should start around CD 33 if your luteal phase is 13 days consistently

Answer

Yes, the later you ovulate the later your cycle will be. Most have a 14 day luteal phase so period should be due 14 days after ovulation. Remember ovulation occurs 12-36 hours after positive opk.
