Below is all you need to know about the Menstrual period and menstrual cycle. Read carefully:
MENSTRUAL PERIOD: This is the time blood flows out of your private area, then you use a pad.
MENSTRUAL CYCLE: These are days it takes to see another blood in the month. If you last saw your period on June 11th and it started again on July 10th 2017, then you have 30days cycle (count from 11 June to 10 July).
NOTE: It is erroneous to believe its 28days cycle; different women have different cycles ranging from 21-35 days.
OVULATION PERIOD: This is time to get pregnant without stress. This is exactly 2 weeks after your period or 2 weeks before the next period.

Major Ovulating Symptoms or Signs
After 2 weeks you may feel the following:
1. Headache.
2. High body temperature.
3. Dizziness (feeling of tiredness and sleepiness).
4. Breast tenderness or size increases just like when you are menstruating.
5. Increased sex drive.
6. Light cramps or pain on one side of the pelvis.
7. Abdominal bloating.
8. A heightened sense of smell, taste or vision (or you eat more).
9. Vagina mucus becomes slippery (if you notice this, put it in between fingers, it stretches like thick catarrh or snail mucus, and it is colourless like egg white).
N/B: The instance here is for ladies with 30 days cycle, and someone who saw her period in July 2017. If yours is 28, then it's 14 days and not 15 days.
If you have a headache without a cause, check back to when your period started. You can drink both malt and peak milk. Do not run to the pharmacist always on issues that can be naturally handled at home, because too much of medicines are not always good on girls.
