If you have a longer menstrual cycle than the average 28 days, calculating your fertile window and potential due date can be a bit more complex. A "long cycle" generally refers to a menstrual cycle that's 35 days or longer. Don't worry; it's still entirely possible to conceive with a long cycle!

Calculate Your Fertile Window Now! →The key is to accurately pinpoint ovulation, as this is when you're most likely to get pregnant. With a longer cycle, ovulation simply occurs later than it would in a typical 28-day cycle.
How a Long Cycle Pregnancy Calculator Helps
A dedicated long cycle pregnancy calculator is designed to take the guesswork out of tracking your cycle. Instead of relying on standard calculations that assume a 28-day cycle, it accounts for the increased length, providing you with a more accurate estimate of your ovulation day and fertile window.
Our tool allows you to input the first day of your last menstrual period and your average cycle length, giving you personalized dates for when you're most likely to conceive. This is particularly helpful if you're trying to get pregnant and want to maximize your chances.
