Ovulation detection test is a tool used to detect when a woman ovulates. Women can choose when to conceive based on the results of the test, allowing women to conceive successfully. At present, the principle of ovulation detection test sold in the market is the same, and the material is colloidal gold, but the sensitivity varies according to different types.
Many people think that the ovulation detection test is used during ovulation. This is wrong. Ovulation detection test is not used during ovulation but before ovulation. The ultimate purpose of the ovulation detection test is to detect when ovulation is coming.
Normally, a woman ovulates around 14 days before her next menstruation begins. However, due to the influence of external and internal causes, the ovulation of women won't just be at a fixed time. It may be ahead of schedule or pushed later, so the ovulation should be tested a few days in advance. The ovulation is usually tested every day one week after menstruation. Instructions for different home ovulation tests may vary slightly. Generally speaking, it is better to test the urine from 10 o'clock in the morning to 8 o'clock in the evening, and the urine from 2 o'clock to 2:30 o'clock in the afternoon is the best.
Don't take a urine test the first time you wake up in the morning as you may miss the first day of the luteinizing hormone peak. Don't drink too much water for two hours before the test. In addition, since the hormone of LH changes, the peak time is also not fixed. When you get a weak positive, if you test once a day, you might miss the peak time. At this time, it is best to test twice a day (every 6 hours or so).
If the color is getting darker, test it several times, which is about every 3 to 4 hours. Ovulation begins when you see darker or lighter colors. Ovulation should be tested one week after menstruation, and test twice a day until weak positive is detected. When a strong positive signal is displayed, the test should be conducted every four hours.
Let's talk about how to prepare for pregnancy. Females preparing for pregnancy generally predict with the ovulation time with the ovulation detection test (preferably monitored with basal body temperature). The OPK ovulation test starts on the 11th day of the menstrual cycle, and the frequency is once a day. When the ovulation detection test shows strong positive, and if the couple have sex within 24 to 48 hours, the chances of pregnancy greatly is increased.
Of course, when the ovulation detection test shows strong positive, it doesn't mean ovulation has started. At this time, it is best to detect every 4 hours with the ovulation detection test, so as to better grasp the ovulation time. When the test result of the ovulation detection test shows strong positive to weak positive, it is necessary to timely arrange a sex, so that the chance of pregnancy will be higher.
Some experts recommend that couples start sex a week before ovulation, because ovulation starts early, and sperm entering the body at ovulation day can be bad for conception. If sperms get in early, they can bond with the egg just in time for ovulation, which can improve pregnancy rates. When some woman use ovulation detection test, the detection result always shows strong positive, because they have higher levels of some hormones than other women. The ovulation detection test is not suitable at this time.
