Questions people ask

How are the fertile days worked out?
Ovulation is taken as 14 days before the next period, and the fertile days as the six days ending on it (Wilcox and others, New England Journal of Medicine, 1995).
Can I use this to avoid pregnancy?
No. Cycles and ovulation vary from month to month, so a calendar estimate is not birth control.
Is my cycle kept?
No. Nothing you type is sent anywhere or kept, and the page has no adverts.
