The average woman will ovulate on what day of her menstrual cycle?
A
7th day
B
14th day
C
21st day
D
3rd day
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -On average, a woman with a regular 28-day cycle ovulates on about the 14th day of each cycle. If a woman’s cycle is longer or shorter than 28 days, the predicted ovulation date is changed accordingly. For example, during a 24-day cycle (4 days shorter than the average), ovulation takes place on about the 10th day.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ovulation and your menstrual cycle During days 10 to 14 of the cycle, only one of the developing follicles forms a fully mature egg. Around day 14 in the menstrual cycle, a sudden surge in LH causes the ovary to release this egg. This is ovulation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most women actually ovulate between day 11 and day 21 of their cycle, not necessarily on day 14. It usually depends on the length of the follicular phase, which normally ranges from 10 to 16 days.

Detailed explanation-4: -As mentioned, ovulation generally occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle or from day 11 up to 21. When it comes to how late can you ovulate, it is usually considered late when it occurs after day 21. If you have an irregular cycle lasting 35 days or longer, ovulating at day 21 or later is normal.

Detailed explanation-5: -According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, ovulation occurs around 14 days before a person expects to have their next period if their monthly cycle is 28 days. Most people ovulate between days 11–21 of their cycle.
