Understanding Your Fertile Window

Your fertile window is the time during your cycle when pregnancy is most likely.

It usually occurs around ovulation — when the ovary releases an egg. Signs may include subtle body changes like increased cervical fluid or slight shifts in energy.

Tracking your cycle can help you recognize these patterns and feel more connected to your body’s rhythm.

Predictions are estimates, so awareness over time is key.
