This test kit contains everything you need to simply and reliably find out when you are likely to next ovulate, which is when your chances of conceiving are greatest.

When a woman is about to ovulate (release an egg from an ovary), her brain releases a large amount of luteinizing hormone (LH) which triggers the release of the ripened egg from an ovary. This LH "surge" takes place in the middle of your cycle, and is usually followed by ovulation within 24-48 hours. The OvuSign^TM One-Step Home Ovulation Prediction Test detects the LH surge in urine, telling you that ovulation is likely to occur in the next 24-48 hours.

Important: The LH surge and ovulation may not occur in all cycles.

A SURGE result indicates that the urine contains high levels of LH and you can assume you will ovulate in 24-48 hours from the time of the urine sample. A negative result indicates that no LH was detected in the urine.

Instructions

Results

Wait at least 3 minutes before reading your test.

Positive: If two bands are visible and the one window T is the same as or darker than the one in C, you will probably ovulate in 24-48 hours.

Negative: If the band in window T is lighter than the one in C or there is no band in the window marked T, no LH surge has been detected.

How To Interpret Your Test Result

A positive test result means your urine contains a high level of LH, a hormone your body makes all of the time but which reaches very high levels just before ovulation. You can assume you will ovulate in 24-48 hours, and plan accordingly. The 1-3 days after your LH surge are the most fertile time of your cycle, when you have the best chance of conceiving. A negative result means that no LH surge has been detected and you should continue with daily testing.
