Common mistakes to avoid
Assuming ovulation is always day 14
Fix: It's about 14 days before the next period, which depends on your cycle length.
Using it as contraception
Fix: Cycles vary; it's an estimate, not a reliable birth-control method.
Ignoring cycle irregularity
Fix: Irregular cycles make estimates less accurate — track signs too.
Treating it as medical advice
Fix: For fertility or health questions, consult a healthcare professional.
