Before you rely on this

Do not use this for contraception. Calendar-based methods have a typical-use failure rate of 12–24% per year. Ovulation shifts between cycles and is delayed by stress, illness and breastfeeding, and sperm survive up to five days in the female reproductive tract — there is no calculable "safe day".
