Instructions
Step 1
It is recommended that you start using the ovulation test about 17 days before the start of your next expected period. It is advisable to do an ovulation test more than once, but 2 times a day for a week. Such a sequence is necessary in order to catch the peak of the level of concentration of luteinizing hormone, which is kept in the woman's body for less than twenty-four hours and can occur both in the morning and in the evening.
Try to do the test at the same time. The best time for the test is from 10 am to 8 pm. Reduce fluid intake several hours before testing. If your cycle is not at all regular, then in this case it makes sense to combine the use of tests with ultrasound monitoring.
Step 2
It is recommended that you start using the ovulation test about 17 days before the start of your next expected period. It is advisable to do an ovulation test not once, but twice a day for a week. Such a sequence is necessary in order to catch the peak of the level of concentration of luteinizing hormone, which is kept in the woman's body for less than twenty-four hours and can occur both in the morning and in the evening.
Try to do the test at the same time. The best time for the test is from ten in the morning to twenty in the evening. Reduce fluid intake several hours before testing. If your cycle is not at all regular, then in this case it makes sense to combine the use of tests with ultrasound monitoring.
Step 3
Evaluate the test results and compare the result line with the control line. A control strip always appears in the window if the test is performed correctly.
If the test strip is much brighter than the control line or the same color, then this result is positive. From this moment, two days are considered the most suitable for conception. If the test strip is paler than the control line, then the test is considered negative and testing should be continued.
