A member asked:

Last menstrual period means when last period stopped?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Richard Ruth answered

LMP: Periods for a regular woman are days 1 till 28. Day one is first bleeding. Usually day 1-4 to 7 is bleeding. Then day 14 is ovulation. So LMP is day one of bleeding.
