How to Calculate your Implantation date?

As this tool is super easy and convenient to use, it provides solutions to all your problems. No matter if you know your ovulation date or not, it will help you find your first day of pregnancy easily.

Let’s have a look at the steps to calculate your implantation day.

If You Know The Dates Of Ovulation

As we know, ovulation, which is the release of a mature egg from the ovaries, occurs on the 14 days of your period cycle. Supposing that you already know your ovulation date, it will be easier to find out your estimated implantation date. 

Let’s have a look at the steps to find out your date.

Open Our Calculator

First of all, you should open our official calculator to check your implantation date. As our tool is available online, you can access it using your search browser.

Enter your Ovulation Date

On the website, you will find a calculator on the top. You should start by entering the exact date of your ovulation.

Select your Cycle length

Then, in the next step, select your estimated cycle length. This will help to find out the most accurate dates of your implantation. Now, click on the calculate button.

Get Your Results

After a few seconds of processing, the calculator will tell you the estimated date for getting pregnant. It is usually 6 to 10 days after your ovulation date.

If You Don’t Know The Dates Of Ovulation

If, due to the hectic daily routine, you have forgotten your ovulation date, then there is no need to worry at all! 

It is because this tool also helps you to find your implantation dates if you don’t know your day of ovulation. Want to know how? It provides an option to first calculate your estimated ovulation day by tracking the last day of your period and monthly cycle. Let’s see how this tool works.

Calculate Your Ovulation Day

To calculate your ovulation day, you can follow two methods. One is with the use of an ovulation calculator, and another is by manually counting the estimated ovulation date. 

Here, I will tell you how to calculate the ovulation day manually. 

1. First, you have to analyze your average menstrual cycle, which varies between 21 and 35 days. 
2. Now, subtract the 14 days from it. Wondering why we are subtracting 14? So, the average luteal phase in a female cycle is 14 days, no matter if the cycle length is 21 or 35. 
3. So, after subtracting 14, you will get your ovulation day.

Here is a formula: 

Length of menstrual cycle (21-35) – 14 days (luteal phase) = ovulation day.

Open Implantation Calculator

Now, as you know your ovulation day, open the implantation calculator from your search browser.

Fill out The Details in the calculator

In the required place, enter all the details that are required for estimating the implantation date. Like, you have to enter your ovulation date or the last day of your period and the average period’s cycle.

Wait for Your Results

After entering all the details, you should click on the calculate button and wait for the results.

When to Take a Pregnancy Test At Home?

When implantation occurs in the uterus, the human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG) begins to increase. As the pregnancy kits analyze this hormone to confirm pregnancy, this hormone should be present in enough amounts in your body. 

So, after the expected implantation date, you should check your hCG hormone level after 4-5 days. Moreover, I guess the best time to confirm pregnancy is after missing your first period. Performing the home pregnancy test after missing the first period will provide accurate results. It is because, during this time, your body will produce enough hCG hormone. This hormone level is enough to detect pregnancy through the pregnancy kits.

Implantation bleeding Calculator

After using this calculator, we can find out the estimated date of implantation, right? Well, as this is only the approximate date, not the exact one, how can we be more sure about implantation? Have you ever thought about this? 

Yes! You guessed it right. Implantation bleeding is another tool to confirm the start of pregnancy. It happens when an embryo tries to attach to your uterus’s thick lining. 

Then, a small portion of the uterus lining is shed, which results in bleeding. With implantation bleeding, there are also other methods that you can use to ensure your pregnancy. 

Want to know about them? So the list is mentioned below:

Basal Body Temperature

You should check your basal body temperature to be more sure. You should check it when you are in a resting position, so the best time is to check it in the early morning at the bed. The basal body temperature helps to predict your ovulation and implantation date. It lowers a day before ovulation and rises after ovulation and implantation.

Ovulation Test

You may be wondering why to take an ovulation test, right? So, when you know the exact date of your ovulation after the test, you can more accurately find out your implantation date. It will reduce the chances of missing the date.

Cervical Mucous Inspection

Observing your cervical mucus will also help you to find out your implantation date. As we know, during ovulation, the cervical mucus becomes slippery and thin. It also gives an egg-white appearance, right? So, it predicts the ovulation day through which we can find out the implantation date. The expected first day of pregnancy is around 9-12 days after ovulation.

Ultrasound Test

However, ultrasound will not tell the implantation process, but it will help to detect early pregnancy. When you feel that implantation has occurred, then you can go for an ultrasound examination.

How does Implantation Occur?

After knowing what implantation is, now let’s understand the exact process of how it occurs. However, I feel it is a complete magical process that gives life to a new individual inside a womb. Implantation occurs 6–9 days after your egg is fertilized by sperm.

Here is a different process that comes in the way of implantation.

Fertilization

The mature eggs, when they leave the ovaries, get fertilized by sperm in the fallopian tube. 

Zygote Formation

The fertilized egg is now called a zygote. After fertilization, it travels down to the uterus for further processes.

Blastocysts Formation

Now, the zygote continues to develop and divide and grow into a ball of cells. Moreover, at this stage, its name has changed to blastocysts.

Implantation

When a blastocyst is formed, it is the time for implantation. The blastocyst hatches at its Zona pellucida point. So, at the zona pellucida point, it gets attached to the wall of the endometrium. Now, implantation has occurred.

Early signs of Implantation

However, the signs of implantation are almost similar to the periods. Therefore, it is difficult to tell if these are period signs or implantation. But still, you can check these signs and then go for a pregnancy test.

The list of these signs is given below:

• Light bleeding or spots
• Nausea
• Bloating
• Mood swings 
• Light cramping in the abdomen, pelvis, and back
