Quick guide
How to use this calculator
- Use the labels and unit notes to enter the requested measurement, date, time, or observation exactly as recorded.
- Check the visible method, population, and unit basis before using the result; switch modes rather than converting values mentally.
- Read the calculation audit and limitations together. The result supports measurement or tracking and does not replace diagnosis, treatment, or urgent medical assessment.
Calculation method
How the gestational age calculator works
Gestational days = 280 - calendar days from reference date to established EDD.
The result is transparent calendar or entered-record arithmetic. It does not diagnose a condition, predict delivery, assess fetal or infant wellbeing, or recommend treatment.
Worked example
Gestational Age example
With an October 8 EDD, July 2 is 26 weeks 0 days.
Gestational days = 280 - calendar days from reference date to established EDD.

Precision and limits
Supported purpose
Recheck dates, units and source records. Use the established clinical due date and the appropriate care team for medical decisions or concerning symptoms.
Measurement quality
The output is only as reliable as the entered measurement, device, timing, units, and applicable reference population. Recheck unexpected values against the original record.
Clinical boundary
This calculator does not diagnose a condition, choose treatment, change medication, or determine that an urgent symptom is safe to monitor at home. Contact an appropriate health professional or local emergency service when the situation may be urgent.
