Worked out from Wilcox AJ, Dunson D, Baird DD. The timing of the "fertile window" in the menstrual cycle and 3 other sources.
The period you entered is 9 whole cycle(s) in the past, so the dates shown are for the cycle beginning 2026-09-10.
Calendar prediction assumes a regular cycle. In the Wilcox 2000 cohort only 10% of women with 28-day cycles ovulated on day 14, so treat these dates as a planning aid rather than a guarantee.
An estimate from calendar arithmetic, not a clinical assessment. Only about 4% of births occur on the estimated due date; ultrasound dating by a clinician supersedes menstrual dating when they disagree.

How this is worked out

5 steps
  1. The next period is expected 28 days after 2026-09-10, on 2026-10-08.
  2. Ovulation is one luteal phase earlier: 2026-10-08 - 14 days = 2026-09-24 (cycle day 15).
  3. The fertile window is the six days ending on ovulation: 2026-09-19 to 2026-09-24.
  4. Intercourse on the two days ending at ovulation carries the highest per-cycle chance, so 2026-09-23 and 2026-09-24 are the peak days.
  5. A pregnancy conceived this cycle would implant between 2026-09-30 and 2026-10-06 and be due on 2027-06-17.
