Introduction

Ovulation test strips assess the amount of luteinizing hormone(LH) you have in your system. Just prior to ovulation， an average of 36 hours before ovulation， a test strip will show this LH surge. An increase in luteinizing hormone means that the egg is soon to be released into the fallopian tube. This is an optimal time to have sexual intercourse if you desire to become pregnant.

Luteinizing hormone (or LH) in elevated quantities causes ovulation (the release of the egg - or ovum - from the ovarian follicle). During the menstrual cycle only a small amount of LH is made， but in the middle of the cycle LH briefly and dramatically increases. This increase is called the "LH surge" and precedes ovulation. Conception is most likely to occur within thirty-six hours following the LH surge. The LH Ovulation Test is specifically designed to detect your LH surge - the time when you are likely to ovulate. If you receive a positive on an LH test， you are in your most fertile phase of your menstrual cycle.

 

When to start testing

Determine the length of the menstrual cycle. The length of the menstrual cycle is the number of days from the first day of menstrual bleeding to the day before bleeding begins on the next period. Determine the usual length of the menstrual cycle over the last few months. Then， refer to the Ovulation Calendar Cycle Chart below to determine on which day of the menstrual cycle to begin testing. If your cycle is less than twenty-one days or greater than forty days， consult a physician.

How to use

■ Wash your hands with warm water and soap.
■ To begin testing， open the sealed pouch by tearing along the notch. Remove the LH test from the pouch. Note: The ideal time to test is in the afternoon， not early morning， though testing may safely take please from 10am to early evening.

 

1. Carefully place the LH test vertically into the urine cup around the MAX Line (Marker Line) for 3-5 seconds. Do not allow the urine level to exceed the MAX line.
2. Take out of the srip
3. Lay the test strip on a flat surface and wait for the colour band to appear.
4. Positive results may be observed within 10-30 munites. The complete reaction time of 10 minutes is required， but no more than 30 minutes.

 

Positive test result: When the test is positive， two distinct bands appear in control and test regions.
Negative test result: A single band indicates negative pregnancy result.
Invalid test result: There may be a time when none of the bands appear， either in control or test area of the strip.

 

Attention

■ Test between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.， and 5 p.m. and 10 p.m. The LH surge is very brief， so testing twice a day gives you the best chance of detecting it. Test at the same time each day.

■ Remember that there is always some amount of LH in your system， so a light test color band should not be interpreted as a positive result.

■ This test is designed for single use only and should not be reused.
