📖 DPO

Days Past Ovulation — a countdown used during the two-week wait to track how many days have passed since ovulation occurred.

In Detail

DPO is commonly used in fertility communities to discuss early pregnancy symptoms and testing timelines. Key milestones: 6-12 DPO is when implantation typically occurs. 10-12 DPO is the earliest a pregnancy test may show positive. 14 DPO is when your period is expected (if cycle is regular). Many women begin symptom spotting around 7-10 DPO, though most early pregnancy symptoms aren't reliable until after a missed period.
