If your period is regular and lasts 28 days, and if ovulation generally happens on day 14 of your cycle, then conception probably took place about two weeks after the LMP. For gestational age counting, these two weeks are added to a pregnancy as a simpler method than trying to track from ovulation or fertilization.

Do you subtract 2 weeks ultrasound?

The ultrasound technician measures the “crown to rump” (head to buttocks) length of the embryo/fetus and will give you the gestational age. To translate into fetal age and estimate when you conceived, take the gestational age and subtract two weeks.
