Hello,

With 36 days of menstrual cycle, you could ovulate by 22nd day from Last menstrual period.

This can always vary and is not always the same for every cycle. With withdrawal method there is a risk of getting pregnant as there are chances of accidental spilling of semen.

I would suggest that you do an urine pregnancy test at home if you missed your period.

If not plan for a proper contraception. There are many types of contraceptives that can be tailored to your need and choice. Withdrawal technique doesn't always work.

Hope I have answered your queries. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Jasmine Jagan
