How To Calculate EDD From LMP?

Note the first day of the last menstrual period (LMP)

Add 1 year

Subtract 3 months

Add 7 days

Use this as the estimated due date (EDD)

If the menstrual cycle is not 28 days, adjust the date accordingly

If ovulation occurred later or earlier than usual, the EDD may need adjustment

Confirm the EDD with an early ultrasound if available
