A sperm can survive up to 3 days in the uterus and the egg lives for about 36 hours If a woman ovulates on day 14 of her menstrual cycle on which days will she be fertile?

Sperm could live up to 7 days with the presence of fertile quality cervical mucus that is present in the week leading up to ovulation, and an egg lives for up to 24 hours - as multiple eggs may be released during ovulation we say that there may be a viable egg present for up to 48 hours. Thus if a woman was to ovulate on day 14 of her cycle she is likely to be fertile between days 7-16.
Unless a woman uses a method like Fertility Awareness Method/Natural Family Planning she cannot know when she is fertile or not, predicting when a woman is fertile based on average cycles or her past cycles is known as Rhythm Method and not reliable as cycles can change.
