If your cycle is regular, you can predict ovulation accurately
Your period comes about two weeks after ovulation, so you can count backwards from your next expected period.
Your period arrives about two weeks after ovulation, and that interval is stable. So if you can predict your next period accurately, ovulation was two weeks before it. Being able to predict your start date reliably is itself good evidence that you are ovulating.
What you can do now
Subtract two weeks from your next expected period — that is ovulation, and the two days before it matter most.
