Women who is willing to become pregnant

The hormone hLH (human luteinising hormone) increases before ovulation (release of a matured egg from the ovary, which moves through the fallopian tube) up to a level of 200 IU / L. This hormone reaches its maximum level 24-48 hours before ovulation and through this measurement it is possible to identify the optimal time for fertilisation. 

How do you conduct an ovulation test?

Hold the test stick under you when urinating or in a urine filled vessel for 3 seconds and read the results after a few minutes. The five test sticks available in the package should be used on 5 consecutive days. To detect your optimal ovulation time, use the disk that comes with the test. 

What will the ovulation test result show you?

The upper (control line) of the test indicates that you have carried out the test correctly. Within the result window, 2 purple lines appear and if the upper line is significantly more intense in colour strength, your ovulation has not yet begun. If the ovulation test result window displays two lines that have the same intensity of colour or if the lower line is darker than the upper, (control line), then your ovulation has begun. 

When is the perfect time for fertilisation?

After an egg has been discharged, it remains fertile for 12 to 24 hours. Sperm may survive in the fallopian tube and the uterus for 3-7 days. Sexual intercourse should take place just before or at the time of ovulation.
