Calculating the day of birth
========================

This program makes it easy to calculate the estimated day of birth by
yourself. This day properly differ from the date the doctor has calculated.
In all cases I have proofed my date was more exactly then the doctors date.

You can calculate by 2 ways with this  program:

1. method Roetzer:
   This method is only for women who have measured their temperature
   each day before their conception. Base date is the latest day of ovulation 
   and fertilization.

2. method Nilson:
   In this method the individual length of a cycle is base of calculating. 
   Therefor the 1. day of last menstruation and the individual length of each
   cycle is need.

Additionally you can use the method of the gynecologists.

Example:
   Day of birth:          23.12.
   gynecologist:          15.12.
   method Nilson:         20.12.
   method Rtzer:         21.12.

   length of cycle:       28 days
   1. day of last menstruation:       12.03.
   Date of increasing temperature:    28.03.


Attention: You always have to thing about +/- 14 days. But the question
if a birth is overdue or not may be answered. In the above example these 
waiting period was not overshoot, so no (artificial premature) birth was
set up.

To set these results onto a more common base, please calc all days of
birth and send them to me (as the above example).
