Can you have a period and not ovulate?

Yes.: Ovulatory cycles usually lead to predictable menstrual periods. Frequently, women have irregular bleeding patterns that may be related to anovulation.

Day 14 but it varies: In an ideal 28-day cycle ovulation occurs 14 days after the first day (CD 14) of the last menstrual period. In real life, most of us have seen apparently normal ovulations between day 11 and maybe 15-16. For women with regular but longer cycles, let's use 35 days as an example, best guess is usually 35-14= cycle-day 21. With irregular cycles, there is no general reliable rule of thumb.
