Ovulation is a process when a mature egg or ovum is released from the ovary, pushed down the fallopian tube and is available to be fertilized. This process happens every month. The time when this process happens are also referred as ovulatory phase. Key features of Ovulation • Generally only one egg is released at time of ovulation • An egg lives 12-24 hours after the ovulation • Implantation of a fertilized egg normally takes place 6-12 days after ovulation • If an egg is not fertilized, it disintegrates and is absorbed into the uterine lining Ovulation Test Ovulation test offers a quick and easy way to predict ovulation in advance in the privacy and comfort of your home. Ovulation test kit is easy to use test which is fast, accurate and convenient. Luteinizing Hormone plays a very important role in ovulation. Luteinizing Hormone (LH) is a hormone produced by our pituitary gland. Our body always makes a small amount of LH, but one or two days before the ovulation it makes significantly more. The Ovulation Test kit is especially designed to detect this surge in LH. How to perform ovulation test at home with ovulation kit? Ovulation Test is a simple test which can be done at home. It gives accurate result in minutes. It is easily readable and reliable. A positive result means ovulation is likely to occur in next 24-36 hours and a negative result shows that LH in urine sample is normal. However, Ovulation Test comes with seven tests you can test again with a new test the next day. This is important as many women have irregular period so 7 tests are imperative. Process of performing ovulation Test • Collect urine in the Ovulation Test container provided once per day and the test should be performed straightaway. • Don’t freeze the sample; it may be stored in room temperature (15º-28ºC) for up to eight hours. • Take out the test strip from the foil pouch and remove the powder packet just before performing the test. • Dip the strip in the sample with the arrow end pointing toward the urine. • Do not allow the urine level to exceed the line indicated by the arrows - MAX Line • Carefully place the ovulation test strip vertically into the urine container for 5 seconds • • Wait for color band to appear as it determines positive or negative result. • You have to check the test result within 05 minutes How to read test result? Negative The control line appears in the test window, but the test line (T) is either invisible or lighter than the control line. The two test results mean that the concentration of LH in the sample is normal. Continue to test daily with a new strip. Invalid The test is invalid if the control line (C) is invisible at five minutes. The test failed, or the test procedure was not followed correctly. Confirm the test procedure and repeat the test with a new strip. Positive The colour intensify of the test line(T) is the same as, or stronger than that of the control line(C). The test result means that the concentration of LH in the urine sample is at the level of “LH surge.”
