Dr. Seth Derman answered

Specializes in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility

2 weeks after: It is normal to get your period about 2 weeks after ovulation. It is possible that you may have ovulated earlier than you think or something else is going on such as irregular cycles or a pregnancy. When in doubt it is always a good idea to check a pregnancy test.
