formula

Estimated gestational age (EGA) = time since 1stday of last menstrual period (LMP) Estimated date of conception (EDC) = two weeks* since 1stday of LMP Estimated due date (EDD) = 1stday of LMP + 40 weeks* (Naegele's Rule) *Assumes 28 day cycle. If cycle is longer than 28 days, this calculator adds the number of days more than 28 to obtain EDD. Example: if cycle length is 35 days, add 7 days (= 35 – 28) to 40 weeks.

pearls

According to ACOG, ultrasound measurement in the first trimester (up to and including 13 6/7 weeks of gestation) is the most accurate method to establish or confirm gestational age.

usecase

Patients who are pregnant or may be pregnant.

reasons

Accurate estimates of gestational age may positively affect pregnancy outcomes, including lower risk of post-term induction and earlier detection of multiple gestations (Whitworth 2015).

next_advice

Use to track and estimate pregnancy.

instructions

  • Enter date of last menstrual period, gestational age (on today's date or other ultrasound date), date of conception, OR estimated due date to estimate the other dates.
  • Only EDD is affected by cycle length ≠28 days when calculating from LMP, EGA, and EDC.
  • When starting with EDD, all results change depending on cycle length.
