  1. naegele's rule

    Naegele's Rule is a formula used in obstetrics to estimate a pregnant woman's expected date of delivery, or due date. This calculation is based on the assumption that the woman has a regular 28-day menstrual cycle. According to this rule, the estimated due date is determined by adding one year, subtracting three months, and adding seven days to the first day of a woman's last menstrual period. Despite its widespread use, it's important to note that only about four percent of births occur on the estimated due date.
