Long menstrual cycle

What are the characteristics of long cycles?

Determining ovulation with long cycles

Ovulation also occurs during long cycles

Even very long cycles are usually healthy and have ovulations. However, with long cycles it is somewhat more difficult to determine the exact day of ovulation. The old Fasut formula that ovulation should be in the middle of the cycle does not apply here at all! Rather, ovulation takes place after the 20th day of the cycle, sometimes even much later.

Even with extremely long cycles, OvulaRing shows you whether you are ovulating and if so, when.

How do long cycles happen?

In women with long cycles, the first phase of the cycle is often prolonged. This means that the egg maturation or follicular phase is significantly longer than the ovulation phase. 70% of all women with very long cycles still ovulate and have fertile days. So with a long cycle you can get pregnant in principle. For the remaining 30%, the cycles are either completely without ovulation (monophasic) or there is a weakness of the corpus luteum or progesterone. In the latter case, the second half of the cycle is shorter than 10 days. In this case, not enough progesterone is released and pregnancy cannot develop.

With OvulaRing you can find out exactly whether you are ovulating despite long menstrual cycles. OvulaRing tells you whether you are ovulating during your menstrual cycles. In this way you can also find out whether you have a progesterone deficiency, for example.

OvulaRing helps you to accurately recognise your fertile days

2. Transfer data

The recorded data is simply transferred with the OvulaRing app. The evaluation of your cycles is also displayed here. You can also keep a cycle diary and receive important information. The security of your data has top priority.

3. Evaluate cycle
