When it comes to predicting one’s monthly hormonal changes, one has to take note of one’s periods i.e. menstrual cycle. In case, one is keen on getting pregnant and is actively involved in it, one will definitely take notice of one’s periods. One has to take note of one’s period in order to be aware of one’s ovulation pattern. Whether one wants to conceive now or later it is important to get familiarized with ovulation.
Why is Ovulation Important for one’s Health?
Ovulation is essential in order to be fertile and to conceive. It is more important than motherhood as it is the basis of motherhood. In case one is not ovulating, then it means one’s body’s is not actually producing sufficient progesterone, and low progesterone (and the resulting estrogen dominance) is at the root of several many hormonal based health issues that do include PCOS, fibroids, as well as ovarian cysts.
Ovulating on a regular schedule means having:
• Regular cycles
• Lighter periods
• Boosted libido
• Less PMS symptoms like mood swings, acne, bloating
• Less anxiety or depression
• Long-term good health and longevity — avoidance of cancers, heart disease, osteoporosis
The Signs of Ovulation
Ovulation is not a mystery and should be so. One must know all there is to know about one’s body system and that includes ovulation. Nothing to be alarmed about it as it is a natural process. In case of hormonal balance, one is able to understand it better.
What to look for?
~ Cervical fluid. One can check one’s discharge. There is cervical mucus or fluid changes throughout one’s cycle, and when it starts to have the consistency of the egg whites then one is more fertile and likely ovulating. This rather consistency of cervical fluid does help the sperm travel to meet one’s egg. In case one is trying to have a baby, one’s body is indeed doing the perfect thing.
~ Sex drive. In case one is feeling frisky, then one is ovulating as testosterone levels do peak around this time, thus boosting one’s interest in sex. Again, it is indeed a smart way as one’s body is ensuring to perform all the required issues to have a baby.
~ Energy. One loves entering the ovulation phase every month lots of energy and stamina, thus making from socializing to working out lot of fun as well as effortless. In case one is vibrant and very communicative, then one might be ovulating.
~ Basal body temperature. One must check up one’s body temperature and it is important to be aware of it in case one is regularly taking anti-histamines or is not producing much cervical fluid to observe. Understanding one’s patterns and how one’s body temperature does rise and also fall over the month can indeed help one to know when one is ovulating.
~ Symptoms. Some women tend to experience symptoms around their ovulation which is similar to their period problem spotting, bloating, acne, as well as pain. These are the kind of ovulation signs one does not really want. If there is a way to fix this one is sure of producing sufficient progesterone as well as estrogen in balance.
In case one does not suffer from these symptoms then one is experiencing menstrual irregularities and does need to understand better the functioning of one’s body. One can check upon one’s basal body temperature to know if one was ovulating.
