Detailed Answer:
Hello,
nice to meet you,
Yes, it can be calculated .since your EDD(expected date of delievery) is on 28 September, your last menstrual period is 9 months and 7 days ahead of EDD , that means on 21st of December 2013.
Fertilisation usually happens 14 days prior to the missed period,which can be calculated by adding 14 days to the last menstrual period , that means on 4th of January 2014 . It is your conceived date according to EDD.
Hope helped you,
Take care.
