LMP stands for "Last Menstrual Period," which is often used in obstetrics to help estimate a woman's due date or track the progress of pregnancy. However, it seems like you might be asking for a calculation related to pregnancy based on the LMP.
To calculate the estimated due date (EDD) or gestational age using the LMP, follow these steps:
-
Determine the First Day of the Last Menstrual Period (LMP): For example, if your LMP was September 1, 2023.
-
Add 280 Days (or 40 Weeks): This is the typical length of a pregnancy from the first day of the last menstrual period.
- In our example:
- LMP: September 1, 2023
- Estimated Due Date: September 1, 2023 + 280 days = May 27, 2024
- In our example:
-
Calculate Gestational Age: To determine how far along you are in weeks, you can count the number of weeks from the LMP to the current date.
If you provide the date of the last menstrual period, I can help you with a more specific calculation!
