Condensing information into an easily understandable format does leave out enormous amounts of data but I do not consider this wrong or nonsense or idiocy.

In Our Bodies Ourselves I initially condensed the following;

The follicle with the maturing egg inside moves toward the surface of the ovary. At ovulation, the follicle and the ovarian surface open, allowing the tiny egg to FLOAT out. About this time, you may feel a twinge or cramp in the lower abdomen or back (called mittelschmerz, German for “middle pain”).

Headaches, stomach pains, or sluggishness are not uncommon at the time of ovulation. But you might also feel fantastic and not even know you are ovulating.

The Egg After Ovulation
After ovulation, the fingerlike ends (fimbria) of the NEARBY fallopian tube sweep the released egg into the tube’s funnel-shaped end.

For my purposes I did not condense a more complete source like https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK441996/

The prevarication about my statements comes from a source I choose to ignore but expect me to condense in the future.
