Check pregnancy test: If you really ovulated, your period will come on time or your are pregnant.

Certainly: It takes about 14 days after ovulation to start producing beta-hcg, which is what we measure on a pregnancy test. I usually recommend testing after a week after you have missed your period, because it may not be enough in your system yet to be a positive result.
