Svetlana asks:

Hello. I have this question: I am trying to get pregnant, the doctor prescribed Dufaston, took a pregnancy test on the 22nd day of the cycle, but spent it in the afternoon, a second pink strip appeared. After that, the test showed 1 strip in the afternoon. Can Dufaston give a false positive test result. Of the symptoms, it is present: breast sensitivity, terrible salivation, on the 6th day after ovulation, the stomach ached like for menstruation and pink discharge appeared with streaks of blood, but this all went away within half an hour. Before the expected monthly 6 more of her. Thank you in advance.

Responsible Klochko Elvira Dmitrievna:

Good afternoon, this is still a short time to make a correct diagnosis. You need to go for an ultrasound scan with a delay of 10 days. Now take duphaston if you don't get your period. Pregnancy tests are not yet relevant. Start doing them with a delay.

Liana asks:

Hello. I'm 24. I got married 2 months ago. Virgin. After the loss of virginity was a delay of 4 days. (Perhaps due to climate change, because we moved to Europe) there were never any delays before the onset of sexual activity. The cycle lasted 28-29 days. Now the second delay has begun. Already 5 days. I did a pregnancy test on the day of the delay. The stomach pulls, the chest swelled. Can I be pregnant? Or what's going on? Thanks in advance. I'm all worn out

Irina asks:

Hello dear gynecologists. Again I turn to you for advice. I am 44 years old. I really want to get pregnant. My husband and I are trying to get pregnant, it will soon be like 2.5 years. Now I have a delay of 10 days, no periods. Pregnancy test on the 4th day of delay and on the 9th negative. The basal temperature is kept at 37 degrees. In this cycle, I did not take any drugs other than folic acid. Before that, she took 6 cycles of esterlan from days 5 to 10, vitamin C from 11 to 20, progesterone 2.5% from day 17 No. 10. Please tell me if pregnancy is possible with negative tests (a blood test for hCG is not done in the district clinic). Also, on 07/17/2014, on the 5th day of the cycle, I took a blood test for anti-Mullerian hormone - 0.72, follicle-stimulating hormone -6.4. The pipes are permeable.
Or are there no periods for other reasons? By what? I am very worried that there are no hormonal disorders or something else bad. I will be very grateful for the answer.

Responsible Palyga Igor Evgenievich:

Hello Irina! You must clearly understand that your age for conceiving a child is critical, the ovarian reserve is lowered and hormonal imbalances are quite possible. I don't think it's pregnancy. I advise you to undergo an ultrasound scan of the pelvic organs, if there is no opportunity to donate blood for hCG. If you really want a child, then you need to urgently contact a reproductologist and plan IVF, although it is not a fact that this will work on your own eggs.

Xenia asks:

Good afternoon. Please tell me. I am 29 years old. In 2005-2006, 17-hydroxyprogesterone was increased - 1.5 ng / ml (0.1-0.8), drank Yarina and Diana-35. Began planning a pregnancy since October 2012. Cycle from 26 to 38 days. Went to the doctor. Tests for infections were all passed, ureaplasma was found. Worried about recurring cystitis, irritation and dryness. They said ureaplasma due to a violation of the microflora. Examination revealed a thin endometrium. Prescribed Lomexin, Vaginorm, lactobacilli. Passed tests for hormones in the 1st phase of the cycle
November 2012
- testosterone - 1.31 nmol / l (0.35-2.6);
- TSH - 0.80 μIU / ml (0.23-3.4)
- 17-hydroxyprogesterone 0.87 (0.4-2.72)
- Sex steroid binding globulin 236.25 nmol/l (14.1-129)
- Index of free androgens - 0.55 (0.4-8.4)
From August to October 2012, she drank Diana - 35. They said because of this, such a high rate of sex steroid binding globulin is possible.
In February 2013 In the first phase:
- LH - 6.02 IU / l (1.1-8.7)
- FSH - 5.72 IU / l (1.8-11.3)
- Prolactin - 423.47 mIU / l (67-726)
- Estradiol - 37 pg / ml (27-122)
The treatment did not give a result, dryness and discomfort were disturbing. We have been trying to get pregnant since December 2012. Gynoflor and Vaginorm were prescribed. Again the result is zero. Sent to ultrasound - everything is fine. Femoston and Veroshpiron were prescribed - I didn’t drink them, I went to another doctor.
Another doctor was horrified, said that ureaplasma should be treated immediately, because of this, cystitis was and estradiol was low. She prescribed Unidox - 14 days, fluconazole, tampons with dimexide and tetracycline - 10 days. Bromoreptin 1/4 t. at night continuously and from 16-25 days m.c. Progestogel on the lower abdomen 2 p. per day for 4 months.
Ureaplasma cured, discomfort and dryness disappeared. After treatment with antibiotics, bromocreptine with progestogel, re-tested for hormones in phase 1
- estradiol - 98 pg / ml (27-122)
- DHEAS - 1.64 mcg / ml (0.5-5.7)
- Sex steroid binding globulin - 71.8 nmol / l (12.4-78.4)
Everything returned to normal, estradiol increased. Treatment with Bromocreptin and Progestogel from April-July 2013. Against their background, they tried to get pregnant. Last period June 18th. Pregnancy test on day 43 m.c. - the second stripe is barely visible. Sent to uzi.
Ultrasound on day 44 m.c. Uterus 49-32-48mm. The contour is even, the myometrium is homogeneous. M-echo up to 5.4 mm. The endometrium corresponds to the first phase of the cycle. Left ovary 32-16-19 mm, follicles diffusely 5-7-9 mm. Right ovary 38-20-23 mm. Follicles diffusely in section up to 10-12 in diameter from 3-6-7 mm, stroma is not expressed. Fluid in the posterior fornix is ​​not defined. Conclusion: no pathologies were found, the picture of the 1st phase of the cycle.
How can it be on the 44th day of m.c. – ultrasound 1 phase? Today is the 45th day of m.c. There are no monthly periods, and ultrasound is not expected in the near future. They said that after the progestogel from 16-25 days, menstruation should have come. Is it possible to wait in this cycle for a new ovulation? There has never been such a delay before. What to do or make, to survey or examine again hormones?

Responsible Purpura Roksolana Yosipovna:

There are many inconsistencies in your story. From ureaplasma there is cystitis, but there can be no low estradiol! Bromkriptin and progestogel are not antibiotics, but hormonal drugs. Bromkriptin is prescribed for elevated prolactin, you write that it is within the normal range. According to your story and ultrasound data, I can suspect polycystic disease, which gives similar delays in menstruation, deviations in hormone levels, thin endometrium, etc. I advise you to donate blood for sex hormones - FSH, LH, prolactin, estradiol, AMH, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol. According to their results, the gynecologist should prescribe hormone therapy. Are you overweight? Have you checked your thyroid? You definitely have an endocrine problem, infection has nothing to do with infertility. Husband handed over a spermogram? After all, the problem can be mutual.

Light asks:

Hello! the question is this: a month ago I was treating ureaplasma, I didn’t take repeated analyses, tk. It was recommended to refrain from sex, and on the 11th day of the cycle there was an unprotected PA. In the future, she wound herself up for pregnancy, today is the 24th day of the cycle, all the signs have disappeared. tests neg. BUT after the treatment, all the discharge disappeared, in general, and now, after going to the toilet, a small amount of creamy discharge remains on a piece of paper, but only after the toilet, and during the day there is nothing !!! what could it be????? 4 days body temp 37, 37.2 bt 37

Responsible Tarasyuk Tatiana Yurievna:

These may be normal discharges. Make a control smear and get the correct answer. A pregnancy test on the 24th day may not "show" pregnancy. Repeat.

Inna asks:

Hello. I am 22 years old. The menstrual cycle is 30 days. There were no usual long delays. Last month, the delay was 5 days, after which brown discharge began in the middle of the cycle. Has addressed to the gynecologist. Found a slight replenishment of the ovaries and polycystic. Prescribed antibiotics and suppositories. After a course of treatment, the delay in menstruation is already 11 days. After taking antibiotics, white discharge began. The doctor said n appointment to go no need signed pills and vaginal cream t infection. Live sexual life, regular partner. 3 weeks before the delay, there was sexual intercourse protected by a condom. Did 4 pregnancy tests after 6 days of delay. All are negative. Pulls the lower abdomen for the last 3 days as before menstruation. There is no nausea and the chest does not hurt. In the lower abdomen, on the pair side, a seal is felt that is similar to the replenishment of the ovaries. Could this be pregnancy or is it an inflammatory process and failure after antibiotics?

Responsible Korchinskaya Ivanna Ivanovna:

If you have been diagnosed with polycystic disease, then the delay in menstruation is associated with it. Polycystic is an endocrine pathology that affects the menstrual cycle and the possibility of conception in the future. You need to take a blood test for sex hormones - FSH, LH, prolactin, estradiol, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, cortisol and contact a gynecologist with the results to prescribe hormone therapy. White discharge is most likely candidiasis, which arose while taking antibiotics due to dysbacteriosis. You can take fluconazole (Diflucan, Difluzol, etc.) orally 150 at a time. If there was an acute inflammatory process of the appendages, then there would be pain, a rise in temperature, etc. The inflammatory process has nothing to do with delays. Correct polycystic!

Alexandra asks:

Hello. I am 18 years old. I don't have a regular cycle. The doctor said that I have ovarian dysfunction and the growth of the endometrium is not going as expected. It's been 10 days late. I look forward to them. I live a sexual life, we are not protected, we are engaged in interrupted sexual intercourse. I took a pregnancy test on the 9th day of my delay. Showed a negative result. The doctor prescribed hormones and a drug for medical curettage. But these days are gone. My nipples hurt, my breasts have become bigger and very soft, my tummy is somehow big, my appetite is jumping, and my mood too. Fatigue, weakness. What could it be? Could there be a pregnancy? Thanks in advance for your reply.

Responsible Purpura Roksolana Yosipovna:

Irregular periods are normal for your age. if the ultrasound is normal. What medications have you been prescribed, what does “drug for medical curettage” mean? In any case, it is necessary to donate blood for hCG, the result of which will accurately show whether you are pregnant, in the early stages, tests do not always give informative results. If there is no pregnancy, then you need to contact the gynecologist who made the appointments.

Alena asks:

Good afternoon.
Today is the 44th day of the cycle (usually the cycle was 28-29 days). The test is positive. The lower abdomen was strongly pulled, the gynecologist did an ultrasound, the pregnancy was uterine.
41 days of the cycle donated blood for hCG - 676
Ultrasound day 43: a fetal egg is visualized in the cavity, the inner diameter is 10 mm, the yolk sac is 4 mm, the embryo is not visualized.
44th day of the cycle donated blood for hCG - 20200 (donated in another laboratory, because the previous result was in doubt)
Can there be such a sharp jump in hCG in 3 days? And is it normal that the embryo is not visualized yet?
Thank you!

Responsible Gritsko Marta Igorevna:

Such a sharp jump cannot be, one of the laboratories was clearly mistaken. The size of the fetal egg indicates 4-5 weeks. pregnancy. I advise you to undergo a control ultrasound in 2 weeks, from 6 weeks. pregnancy, the heartbeat of the embryo should be observed. If it is rendered, then everything is in order.

Conception is a delicate and complex process that depends on many factors. Therefore, do not despair if you did not get pregnant right away. It is possible to raise the issue of infertility only after a year of regular sexual activity without the use of contraceptives.

How often do women ask themselves the question? Is it possible to get pregnant that day? In order to accurately verify the result, you need to visit a gynecologist. The doctor can conduct a series of studies and determine whether conception has occurred. This article will consider the 20th day of the cycle. You will find out if pregnancy is possible at this time. Also get acquainted with some of the opinions of doctors and patient reviews.

Note that the material presented is not a guarantee that in your case everything will be exactly the same. The body of each woman is individual and full of its own characteristics.

A few words about the theory: the process of fertilization

To understand whether conception is possible on the 20th day of the cycle, you need to learn about the principle of this process. For the onset of pregnancy, two cells are needed - male and female. Spermatozoa are released during ejaculation at any time. A woman's body is a little different. The representative of the weaker sex washes to conceive a baby not every day of the cycle. There are so-called

Doctors divide women's periods into short, average and long. In the first case, the cycle lasts up to three weeks. The last one is 35 days. All this is considered normal and does not require medical intervention. Consider the separately described cycles and find out if conception is possible on the 20th day of the cycle.

The average woman with regular periods

With a period of 28 days, the egg is released approximately on the 14th-16th day of the cycle. The viability of the gamete is only a few hours. If sexual intercourse occurs on the 20th day, then pregnancy is extremely unlikely. This fact is explained by the fact that more than 4 days have passed since ovulation.

Despite the available data, conception can still occur. Remember that every representative of the weaker sex has hormonal disruptions that shift ovulation in one direction or another. Also, sometimes two eggs can be released in a cycle. This is more the exception than the rule. However, it should always be remembered.

in a short cycle

Is it possible to get pregnant on the 20th day of the cycle in this case? The answer to this question will be more negative than doubtful or positive. For women with a short cycle, it lasts up to three weeks and is 21 days. Ovulation occurs about a week after a new period. Therefore, if sexual intercourse without protection occurs on the 20th day, then the next cycle will already begin on the 21st. The gamete will simply die by the specified time.

It is worth considering another situation. As you already know, the rupture of the follicle occurs approximately on the 7th day after menstruation. The viability of spermatozoa in the genitals of a woman is up to ten days under favorable conditions. Based on this, it can be assumed that the contact took place on the 20th day, and ovulation occurred 8 days later. Pregnancy may well come from a gamete, which will still wait in the wings. However, you will learn about your new position in the next cycle.

A woman with a long cycle and the likelihood of conception

On what day of the cycle does ovulation occur in the fairer sex with a period of 35 days? In this situation, the rupture of the follicle occurs around the 21st day. Can pregnancy occur with sexual intercourse a few hours before? Certainly yes.

Doctors say that this particular day is the most favorable for conception in the fairer sex with a long cycle. That is why, if you are not planning a pregnancy, you should be especially careful during intercourse. Use barrier methods of contraception.

Ovulation symptoms every woman needs to know about

On what day of the cycle ovulation in certain women, you already know. It is also worth learning to determine the output of the gamete by symptoms. This will allow you to most accurately answer the important question: is pregnancy possible?

• Allocations on the 20th day of the cycle during ovulation are usually mucous, viscous and transparent. It is this environment that is most favorable for spermatozoa. In it, the cells move quickly, reaching their goal.
• You can determine the onset of ovulation using special tools (testing, laboratory tests, ultrasound monitoring).
• The position of the cervix. This symptom will be indicative only with long-term regular examination. becomes softer, opens up a little and rises up. Remember that the study should be carried out exclusively with clean hands with short-cut nails.
• Increased libido. With ovulation on the 20th day of the cycle, as in any other, there is an increase in sexual desire.

is pregnancy possible?

The first day of the cycle is the day on which the bleeding began. Doctors say that normally every woman has up to two anovulatory cycles per year. What it is? Can pregnancy occur on the 20th day in this case?

An anovulatory cycle is a period when the ovaries are dormant (not functioning). Ovulation does not occur this month. Therefore, pregnancy can absolutely be ruled out. It is worth noting that anovulatory cycles are often longer or shorter than normal periods. You should not focus on this if the absence of menstruation lasts up to 40 days.

Definition of pregnancy on the 20th day

What are the signs of ovulation on the 20th day of the cycle, you already know. Often women have a question: is it possible to establish the presence of pregnancy at this time? It is almost impossible to determine this fact on your own. The most popular diagnostic tool is a test. However, on the 20th day, he will show you a negative result due to the fact that there is still a low level of human chorionic gonadotropin in the urine.

It is possible to establish the fact of conception on the 20th day with the help of laboratory tests. However, they will show an accurate picture only with early ovulation. In other words, if the egg was released on the 7th day, then it is likely to see a positive level of chorionic gonadotropin. Progesterone (cycle day 20) will also be high, corresponding to the first trimester.

Ultrasound examination at this time will not yet give a clear picture. Even with the onset of pregnancy, the fetal egg is still negligible, it is simply impossible to see it.

A common question: can I get pregnant if unprotected intercourse occurred on a certain day of the menstrual cycle - worries many women who ask it in various medical forums. To answer these questions on your own, it is enough to understand the mechanism of the probability of pregnancy depending on the moment of the menstrual cycle, which we will introduce you to.

Please note that in this article we start from the following premise: the intercourse was not protected, therefore the woman could become pregnant. We did not take into account such important factors for conception as the reproductive ability of a partner, gynecological problems in a partner, compatibility in a couple. Such individual characteristics of sexual intercourse can, of course, play a role in the onset of pregnancy.

Of course, women ask the initial question about the possibility of getting pregnant on a certain day of the cycle for two reasons: some want to increase the chances of conception, the second - on the contrary.

Calendar method: reliable or not?

What else needs to be considered to determine the possibility of getting pregnant?

• Unprotected intercourse followed by emergency contraceptive methods
• Started a new menstrual cycle (periods)
• Pregnancy test remains negative weeks after unprotected intercourse

The most common situations: the ability to conceive a child depending on the menstrual cycle

One of the most common questions that our readers (and readers) turn to us in the section sounds something like this: “what is the probability of getting pregnant if unprotected intercourse took place on such and such a day of the menstrual cycle?”. In this article, we will try to give a detailed and reasoned answer to the question of the likelihood of pregnancy at various points in the menstrual cycle, and thus we hope to satisfy the interests of our readers related to such issues.

Important note! In this article, we describe the chance of getting pregnant as a result of unprotected intercourse (any intercourse in which contraceptives were either not used or used incorrectly). At the same time, when calculating the probability of developing pregnancy, we take into account only the female factor - that is, the theoretical ability of the female body to become pregnant and do not take into account such factors as the reproductive ability of a man, the presence of diseases of the genital organs of a woman and a man, the characteristics of sexual intercourse, the compatibility of partners, which, however, may also affect the chances of pregnancy

Calculating the chances of getting pregnant is of interest to people for two reasons: the desire or unwillingness to develop a pregnancy.

Here is the most common, but, alas, far from the most accurate formulation of the calculation of the chances of getting pregnant during the menstrual cycle: “With a regular menstrual cycle of 28 days, the greatest chance of getting pregnant is between the 10th and 17th day of the menstrual cycle (the first day of the cycle is the first day of menstrual bleeding). This period is called the "fertile window". In the periods from the beginning of menstruation to the 10th day and after the 17th day of the menstrual cycle until the start of the next menstruation, the probability of becoming pregnant decreases to almost zero (safe days on which fertilization and pregnancy cannot occur). That is, the chances of getting pregnant increase immediately after menstruation, reach a maximum value in the middle of the menstrual cycle, and then decrease again until the next cycle begins.

More recently, such theoretical considerations regarding the menstrual cycle and the likelihood of becoming pregnant are quite seriously and widely used as the so-called "calendar contraceptive method" or to determine the most favorable days for conceiving a child. Modern research in the field of the physiology of the menstrual cycle and the reproductive health of women, however, has shown that relying on these “safe” or “happy” days for conception is not worth it. According to current observations, even with regular menstrual cycles, women between 25 and 35 years old (the age when the menstrual cycle is usually the most stable) experience sporadic (sudden) ovulation, which preserves the possibility of conception on almost any day of the menstrual cycle, including and the days of the menstruation itself (bloody discharge). Scientists have proven that only 30% of women have a "fertile window" located between the 10th and 17th day of the menstrual cycle. The probability of getting pregnant in the middle of the menstrual cycle really depends on its regularity, which to some extent reflects the state of the woman's reproductive health and her chances of getting pregnant in general. As a rule, the most regular cycle occurs in women between 25 and 35 years. During menarche (the first menstruation in a woman's life) and closer to menopause (the period of completion of menstrual cycles in a woman's life), the irregularity of menstrual cycles and, accordingly, ovulation increases. In such cases, the possibility of getting pregnant is considered almost unpredictable. According to the results of modern research, in 2% of women the fertile period (the period when the probability of becoming pregnant is highest) began on the 4th day of the menstrual cycle, and in 17% on the seventh day. In more than 70% of women, a high probability of becoming pregnant remained until day 10 or after day 17 of the menstrual cycle. And even in women with a regular menstrual cycle, there was a 1-6% chance of getting pregnant on the day when menstruation was supposed to occur or on the days of menstruation itself. Also, it is believed that the regularity of the menstrual cycle and ovulation are closely related to the psychological state of the woman and depends on factors such as stress, change of scenery, vacation trip, etc. During the First World War, a well-known German doctor published his own observations, according to which 25 women became pregnant after a single intercourse between the 2nd and 30th day of the menstrual cycle.

Additional factors that may be taken into account when calculating the possibility of getting pregnant

The chance of getting pregnant drops significantly if:

• Emergency contraception was taken immediately after unprotected intercourse
• At the end of the cycle, menstruation began (a new cycle began)
• 3-4 weeks after unprotected intercourse, a pregnancy test remains negative

The chance of getting pregnant increases if:

• After unprotected intercourse, there is a delay in menstruation for more than 4 days or other early signs of pregnancy

The probability of getting pregnant depending on the woman's menstrual cycle

Consideration of the most frequent situations

The probability of getting pregnant in the case of a regular menstrual cycle, with an average duration of 28 days.

With a regular menstrual cycle lasting 28 days, the highest probability of conception occurs on days 10 and 17 of the menstrual cycle. Between days 6 and 21 of the menstrual cycle, the chances of getting pregnant, according to research by Wilcox A.J. and others, is more than 10%. The chance of getting pregnant before day 6 or after day 21 of the menstrual cycle is 1 to 6%.

Chances of getting pregnant if you have an irregular menstrual cycle

In the case of an irregular menstrual cycle, the moment of ovulation is difficult to predict. Moreover, in women with irregular menstrual cycles, ovulation may not occur at all, so it is almost impossible to estimate the likelihood of getting pregnant at any point in the menstrual cycle in the case of a woman with irregular menstrual cycles.

Chances of getting pregnant during the absence of periods after childbirth (lactational amenorrhea)

The period of absence of menstruation after childbirth (the so-called lactational amenorrhea) is a woman's natural defense mechanism against too early a new pregnancy. However, breastfeeding and the absence of menstruation cannot be considered a complete guarantee of the impossibility of becoming pregnant during this period. Often, the first ovulation after childbirth occurs even before the first menstruation after childbirth, so the likelihood of becoming pregnant appears already in the first months after childbirth and persists even in the absence of menstrual flow. Naturally, after the start of menstrual cycles in a nursing mother, the probability of becoming pregnant becomes almost the same as in non-nursing women.

Chances of getting pregnant if you don't have a menstrual cycle - never had a period (primary amenorrhea)

In this case, the probability of becoming pregnant without appropriate treatment is theoretically absent. However, this does not mean that a woman with primary amenorrhea will not be able to get pregnant at all, that is, she is completely sterile. There are effective methods for treating amenorrhea and restoring a woman's reproductive capacity. The chances of getting pregnant in women with severe menstrual irregularities or with a complete absence of a menstrual cycle increase significantly after a course of proper treatment.

Chances of getting pregnant in the absence of a menstrual cycle - menstruation was, but is absent for more than 3 months (secondary amenorrhea)

The probability of getting pregnant in this case is low, but it is not completely excluded. In most of these cases, to restore the woman's ability to become pregnant, it is necessary to eliminate the cause of amenorrhea with the help of special treatment (see Amenorrhea).

conclusions

If pregnancy is not desirable for you at the moment, then you should not rely on the calendar method of contraception, as in many cases it is ineffective. For maximum protection, choose with your partner a more reliable method of protection (condom, contraceptives). Also, do not forget that during sexual intercourse without using a condom (as well as if the condom is used incorrectly or if it breaks), there is a risk not only of getting pregnant, but also of contracting various sexually transmitted infections (STDs), including AIDS , herpes, etc.

If you are planning a pregnancy, sexual intercourse strictly on the days of the calendar at “good times” is not always the most effective method of conceiving. Some experts recommend regular unprotected intercourse throughout the entire menstrual cycle (except during the period itself), at least three times a week.

Is she on day 22 of her cycle? Signs of pregnancy at this time are trying to detect in themselves both those planning an "interesting situation" and those who are afraid of its onset. The thing is that timely diagnosis of pregnancy allows you to start early monitoring of the development of the fetus, and also allows you to have an abortion if necessary. In any case, the sooner a woman finds out about her new status, the better. But how does pregnancy manifest itself? What awaits a girl on the 22nd day of the menstrual cycle? By answering all this, everyone will be able to quickly and almost with 100% accuracy understand whether she is pregnant or not.

Interval between periods

On the 22nd day of the cycle, signs of pregnancy may or may not appear. Why? It's all about the different duration of the menstrual cycle. Much will depend on this "component" - both the favorable time for conception, and the moment of implantation of the fetus, and the first manifestations of the "interesting situation".

At the moment, you can meet girls with such cycle lengths:

• normal (medium);
• short;
• long.

Accordingly, depending on the duration of the cycle, how successful conception manifests itself will change. Moreover, for each girl, pregnancy makes itself felt in different ways. This must always be remembered.

How is conception

Did the woman go on the 22nd day of the cycle? Signs of pregnancy at this point may not appear. This is normal, especially if the girl has a stable average menstrual cycle.

How does conception take place? Knowing this is also important. Sometimes, it is this information that helps to suspect pregnancy in the early stages.

In each "monthly cycle" in the girl's body, an egg begins to mature. It develops in the follicle. By the middle of the cycle, the follicle is torn. After that, the "slip" of the egg into the body occurs. This moment is considered to be ovulation.

Next, the female germ cell moves through the fallopian tubes to the uterine cavity. If during this time a spermatozoon penetrates into it, a fetal egg is formed. After a few days, it will attach to the uterus and begin its development. Otherwise, the unfertilized egg dies in the uterine cavity after a couple of days.

On the 22nd day of the cycle, the signs of pregnancy are almost imperceptible with a normal menstrual cycle. if you try, you can suspect an "interesting position" quite early.

Average cycle

What feedback is left on the 22nd day of the cycle? Signs of pregnancy in the 28-day cycle may appear. Many women talk about it.

The thing is that ovulation occurs under similar circumstances 12-15 days after the first day of the next menstruation. By day 22, fertilization has already occurred. Most likely, the fertilized egg has already attached to the uterus. So, you can look for the first signs of an "interesting situation".

Unfortunately, most often they manifest themselves in exactly the same way as PMS. And therefore, it is very easy to confuse pregnancy with impending menstruation. More precisely, this usually happens - women on the 22nd day of the cycle cannot distinguish signs of pregnancy from PMS. Moreover, even doctors are unlikely to be able to help cope with the task.

short cycle

The second scenario is the onset of pregnancy in a woman with a short menstrual cycle. Usually this is a break between critical days lasting from 20 to 22 days. It follows that a cycle of 23-28 days is normal. This information can be useful to everyone.

Does a woman have a 22 day cycle? Signs of pregnancy with a short interval between menstruation are more noticeable than with a normal "break" between critical days. Why?

This is due to the fact that with a short duration of the monthly cycle, menstruation comes early. Moreover, on the 22nd day there is often a delay. It is considered the very first and obvious manifestation of the "interesting situation".

Unfortunately, a pregnancy test in this case will not always show 2 strips. This is caused by very low levels of hCG in the urine. A similar hormone appears in the body of a girl only during pregnancy. So, its presence may indicate a successful conception.

long cycle

Interesting signs of pregnancy on the 22nd day of the cycle? Women's comments emphasize that there are no specific manifestations of an "interesting situation" at such an early date. Moreover, each pregnancy for a particular girl can proceed in different ways. A huge role is played by the individual reactions of the human body to certain changes. Therefore, we will further consider possible early precursors of the "interesting situation" in general terms.

A menstrual cycle of 30 days or more is considered long. Then ovulation will come approximately 14-16 days after the start of the next menstruation. 22 days after the start of the next cycle, no harbingers of a successful conception will arise. Most likely, the woman will not feel them at all.

Basal temperature

Most often, on the 22nd day of the cycle (with a 26-day cycle), signs of pregnancy do not yet appear. A woman can suspect a successful conception if she has been keeping a chart of basal temperature for a long time. With its help, they usually determine the favorable time for conception and "safe" days for unprotected sex.

If on the BT chart a woman sees an increased body temperature after ovulation, lasting more than 2 days, there is a pregnancy. Moreover, an increase in basal temperature will be observed up to the delay of menstruation. And after it, the corresponding indicator will not decrease.

Important: after ovulation during pregnancy, the temperature will be elevated. This is considered an indicator of more than 37 degrees.

implantation bleeding

Another sign of an "interesting situation" is implantation bleeding. It is observed not in every girl. It can also occur on the 22nd day of the cycle. Signs of pregnancy at this point are limited, as already mentioned, it is quite easy to confuse them with menstruation.

Implantation bleeding occurs due to damage to the uterus during the attachment of the fetal egg. Usually a girl can notice spotting in herself. They will be red or brownish-red in color, short-lived.

As a rule, bleeding during implantation is not too long. It can be observed as a "one-time" smear, and as a discharge that lasts 2 days. Women note that on the 22nd day of the cycle, such discharge can really bother. These are just a few drops, but especially attentive girls are able to suspect early menstruation, or an "interesting situation."

Bloating

The next early manifestation of pregnancy is almost never found. However, it is clearly visible in thin and slender girls without a hanging or protruding belly.

The thing is that constipation is possible during pregnancy. In some, bloating is noted as the first harbingers of the "position". A woman is able to note that the fitted high trousers have become narrow in her abdominal cavity.

Breast and its changes

Is the 22nd day of the cycle with a 25-day cycle? Signs of pregnancy at this point are usually already more vivid. Especially if you listen to your body.

Some girls note that their breast condition has changed significantly in the early stages of the "interesting position". For example, the sensitivity of the chest has greatly increased.

Sometimes women talk about pain in the chest. Unfortunately, this is how PMS manifests itself for many.

HCG and its appearance

As already mentioned, during pregnancy, a woman begins to grow the so-called "pregnancy hormone". It's called HCG. In a healthy body, it initially does not exist.

If a girl suspects pregnancy, she can donate urine and blood for hCG. 22 days after the start of the next cycle, it is better to refrain from such studies. It is better to postpone them for the first days of delayed menstruation.

However, if hCG is elevated on the 22nd day of the cycle, one can judge pregnancy or the presence of any diseases of the genitourinary and reproductive systems of the body.

Other manifestations

Is it day 22 of the cycle? With a 25-day cycle, signs of pregnancy, as emphasized earlier, may not appear in any way. Only a few are able to catch them.

Among other occurrences of pregnancy at an early stage, there are:

• general weakness in the body;
• dizziness;
• delayed menstruation;
• mild nausea (occasionally with vomiting);
• fast fatigue;
• drowsiness;
• quick mood swings.

What are the signs of pregnancy on the 22nd day of the cycle? Reviews of already pregnant women often emphasize that at this time, in addition to implantation bleeding, there are no phenomena characteristic of an "interesting situation". Only a few women claim that they immediately realized that they were pregnant even before the delay of critical days.
