Hi, Anon, so glad you found us at EmpowHer! Let's see what we can figure out for you.

One piece of information I really need from you is the usual length of your cycle. How many days is it from Day 1 of your period to Day 1 of your next period?

The "normal" time is 28 days, so we'll use that as an example and you can adjust a little if your cycle is normally shorter or longer than that.

In a 28-day cycle, if your period started on 3/25, you would probably be ovulating somewhere between day 11 and 16. That would have fallen between April 4 and April 9. So if you are having a 28-day cycle, yes, you probably would have missed the ovulation window for this month.

However, if your cycles are longer, and if you ovulated late, there would be a possibility for pregnancy. A 32-day cycle, for instance, would have probably meant that you ovulated somewhere between April 12-16. It all depends on the length of your cycle.

Are you a little late in starting your period? Are you hoping that this is the case?
