When Does Ovulation Occur After Removal Of A Birth Control Patch?
i decided after having my last period I would stop taking my birth control patch after my period I wore it for about three days then decided I wa t to try and get pregnant so took it off and had a period/ haeavy bleeding the following week my question is when did I ovulate after that first or the second period
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
When someone is not on contraceptive pills, ovulation generally occurs at the mid of the cycle, classically 14 days before the next cycle like if you have a cycle of 30 days, 16th day would be date, however this is not a very hard and fast rule. Any day in the mid week can be the day but it is unlikely at the start or the end of cycle.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mahboob Ur Rahman
