Have you ever wondered what ovulation looks like?
Well I found these pictures of a woman ovulating. This is a rare opportunity.
And on top of that the woman is 45 years old and ovulation took about 15 minutes to happen, very different then the previously thought “ovulation burst”. So if you are feeling achy for 10 -15 minutes around ovulation time… you are probably right.
You can see the pictures here:

Please, I advice what is happening to me. Can baby come just a week after ovulation? Awaiting your kind response. Brgds
Dear Mrs. Okolo,
I am happy you have found the information we share helpful!
After an egg is fertilized by sperm, it takes around 6 to 10 days for the embryo to travel to the uterus to implant. It often takes a bit longer than that to detect pregnancy on a home pregnancy test. This being said, each women experiences hormonal shifts differently. I am sorry I can not know if what you are experiencing are symptoms of pregnancy. If you actively tried to conceive, here are Six Things You Should Be Doing During the Two Week Wait.
All my best!
I don’t experience neither ovulation nor pain. Does it mean that I no longer produce egg? I am trying to conceive.
Dear Lois,
Ovulatory dysfunction or anovulation is one of the leading causes of infertility, but does not necessarily mean you no longer have eggs. There are many reasons why a woman may experience disrupted ovulation. Take time to learn more in the following articles…

5 Simple Ways to Promote Regular Ovulation
I hope these are helpful!
Hi! I do have this pain and it sometimes lasts for about 20 minutes. My question is, does this mean that right after the pain baby making sex can follow? I have also been diagonsed with hormonal imbalance, but I still experience the pain monthly. Could I still produce egg with the pain I am experiencing? Thanks!
Dear Oba,
I can not be certain if the pain you experience is ovulation pain, but it may be if it is localized to one side, happens approximately mid-cycle and subsides eventually. Intercourse can follow if you suspect it to be ovulation pain (due to a egg being released) and are trying to conceive.
Best wishes!
Does this mean that what we know as ovulation pain can probably mean a process of ovulation
Yes Vivian! You are correct!
Many women feel pain when a follicle releases an egg (ouvlation).
Be well!
