The ovulation period is the time when a mature egg is released from a woman's ovary in preparation for fertilization and pregnancy. Its determination belongs to the female specialist physician, not to the expert. When asking about health or physical matters, one should consult the specialized doctor in that field. Scholars of Sharia are asked about matters related to Sharia rulings, such as menstruation and purity. As for existential, medical, and experimental matters, specialists in those fields should be consulted. If you wish to know the ovulation period, ask the specialized female doctor, as this matter has no bearing on a Sharia .
