OvuSign^TM
One-Step Home Ovulation Prediction Test

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What time is best to do the test?

A: Urine should be collected at about the same time every day, if possible. Do not use first morning urine; for best results, use urine collected between 10 am and 8 pm.

Q: I didn't use exactly three drops of urine. Will the test still work?

A: One drop more should not affect the result, but we still recommend using exactly three drops of urine. If not enough urine is added the test will not work properly. If you think you may have carried out the test incorrectly, you should do another with a new OvuSign^TM test card.

Q: Does the amount of liquid that I drink affect the test?

A: Try to reduce your liquid intake for about 2 hours before you collect your urine. You don't want to dilute your urine.

Q: How long will the band remain visible?

A: The test should be read within 10 minutes for best results. A positive (SURGE) result will never disappear. The color band may become darker and a tinted background may appear after several hours. Some negative results may later display a faint second color band because of evaporation from the test window which prevents complete migration of the test chemicals. Therefore, you should discard the test card once you have read the result.

Q: How accurate is the test?

A: The accuracy of OvuSign^TM was demonstrated in a laboratory study in which technicians obtained the correct result on a total of 306(99%+) of 306 blind clinical samples.

Q: I am not sure of my test result. What should I do?

A: The OvuSign^TM test is very easy to read. The test is working properly as long as a pink or purple colored band is visible in the control window, C. The result is positive if there is a darker band in window T. Otherwise, no LH surge has been detected.

Q: Can I use OvuSign^TM as a contraceptive?

A: No. You are most fertile when you ovulate, 30-70 hours after your LH surge, but you can still become pregnant after ovulation. It is very important that you do not use this test as a form of birth control.

Q: How long is the product good for?

A: OvuSign can be stored for 15 months at room temperature.
