    no the days you ovulate is usually a couple of weeks before you menstate. ovulation is when u release an egg anticiapting for fertilization. if fertlilzed you will not menstate if it doesnt you will. when u menstrate you are sheding the lining of your uterus and getting rid of unused eggs to make way for more eggs to get fertilzied its a monthly cycle. the end of your period is the start of the cycle. ovulation is the middle of your cylce. and the beginning of your period is the end of your cycle

    No. Ovulation is when the egg is released and attaches to your uterus. If the egg is not fertilized in the next week or two the walls of your uterus will shed and cause bleeding which is your period. Your menstrual cycle starts the first day of your period. So say you ovulate on days 21-26, you will start testing 21 days after your period starts.

    The question that you asked is to ambiguous to determine. all of it depends on when you think that you start your menstrual cycle and how long your menstrual cycle is. Your period or cycle starts on the first day that you start to bleed. The cycle ends approximately 25-35 days later when you start to bleed again. Now to find the day that you ovulate, you subtract 14 days form the day that you start to bleed. That is the day that you ovulate. Now if your cycle is 21 days, you could ovulate the day after you finish your period(scary but it happens to some women). If your cycle is longer, then you could ovulate one or two weeks after you finish bleeding.

    so it all depends on your cycle.
