Ovulation self-test

No, the test cannot be used as a means of contraception.

A clinical study on 300 urine samples showed specifi city higher than 99%, sensitivity higher than 99% and global accuracy higher than 99%.

Ovulation selftest detects the presence of luteinising hormone (LH) in urine from 40 mIU/ml. No cross-reactions have been observed in the concentrations tested after adding common medicinal products and hormones, including FSH (1,000 mIU//ml), hCG (100 mIU/ml) and TSH (1,000 μIU/ml).

No, but it is recommended to consult your doctor if you are taking hormone treatment. A recent dose of an oral contraceptive, breastfeeding or pregnancy can affect the test result.

It is not recommended to use first-morning urine because it is particularly concentrated and could therefore give false positive results. Any other time of day is suitable. For the most accurate result possible, it is best to collect the urine at the same time each day.

Drinking lots of liquids before performing the test will dilute the hormone in the urine. It is recommended not to drink in the two hours before the test.

The test should be read after three minutes. A positive result (presence of the LH surge) will not disappear. The lines may become darker and a pinkish colouration of the membrane may appear after several hours. Some negative results may become slightly positive after a certain time; this is due to evaporation in the Test window. As such, the test cannot be read more than 10 minutes after it has been performed. Discard the test once it has been read.

Ovulation should take place within 24 to 36 hours. This is when you will be in the most fertile period of your cycle. It is recommended to have sexual intercourse during this period.

The Ovulation self-test does not replace the temperature method. The increase in basal temperature normally indicates that ovulation has already taken place. The Ovulation self-test indicates that ovulation is about to take place.

Our 8 days pregnancy test can give a reliable, accurate result from the expected 1st day of your period.

Many factors can affect your chances of becoming pregnant. For couples in good health, pregnancy may occur only after several months and it is sometimes necessary to use the Ovulation self-test test for 3 to 4 consecutive months to become pregnant. If you do not become pregnant after 3 to 4 months, you and your partner should consult a doctor.

The test is positive if both lines are visible (C and T) but the Test line (T) must be of equal or greater intensity than the Control line (C). This means that ovulation will take place within 24 to 36 hours.

The test is negative if there is only one Control line or both lines are visible but the Test (T) line is less intense than the Control (C) line. The test is also negative if no Test (T) line appears. This means that the ovulation peak has not been detected.

The test result is invalid if there is no line on the Control (C) line.
