A. One does not need to know when one is ovulating to get pregnant, if one is enjoying a healthy sexual relationship with a fertile person of the opposite gender.

B. After going off hte pill, the first ovulation may frequently be delayed from 1-4 weeks. Average is 2.

C. Ovulation occurs 2 weeks before the next period.
