The physiological cycle of many female friends is not completely fixed, and sometimes there may be some changes. This accumulation of errors also makes it increasingly difficult for many people to predict their detailed physiological cycle. So many female friends in need began using the ovulation test strip as a tool to test their ovulation period. Then use the ovulation period as a calibration to choose the timing for conception. But the ovulation test paper is not as useful as imagined, as its display is complex and there are always some unexpected situations. So what should I think of the ovulation test paper? Today we will bring you the correct usage of ovulation test strips.

1、 What is the ovulation test strip?

The ovulation test strip can effectively predict the ovulation period by detecting the peak level of luteinizing hormone (LH). Ovulation test strips can predict ovulation by detecting the peak levels of female luteinizing hormone. If a normal woman maintains a trace amount of luteinizing hormone in her body, the secretion of luteinizing hormone will rapidly increase in the middle of menstruation, forming a peak that will stimulate ovarian ovulation within the next 24 hours. Therefore, ovulation test strips can accurately predict the ovulation period. Ovulation test strips are mainly used to determine whether ovulation will occur by detecting urine. Half of the people said that if the test strip tests positive, it means ovulation takes about 36 hours, and you can have sex according to this time.

2、 What do you think of ovulation test strips?

Ovulation test strips are usually tested by each person's urine. If the test results show a negative bar, it indicates that the body has not ovulated. If the test results show two lines, one deep and one shallow, it is weakly positive, indicating that it is during ovulation. If both stripes are equally dark, it is strongly positive, and usually the ovaries ovulate within 24 hours. Ovulation test paper, if there is only one red band in the control line area or if the detection line is lighter than the control line, there is one red band, that is, the control line has color, and the detection line has no color, indicating no ovulation; Two red bands appear, and the detection line is significantly lighter than the control line, indicating that LH in urine has not yet reached its peak and must be continuously tested every day. Two colored bands appear, with a detection line equal to or deeper than the control line, indicating that the LH peak has appeared and ovulation will occur within 24-48 hours. Ovulation test strips detect the peak level of luteinizing hormone (LH) to predict whether ovulation occurs. The normal menstrual cycle is usually 28 days, and the next menstrual cramp will be ovulated 14 days earlier. The general test starts on the 11th day of ovulation and lasts for 6 days.

3、 Correct usage of ovulation test strips

Collect urine in a clean and dry container, do not use morning urine. The best time to collect urine is from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm. Try to use urine samples at the same time every day and reduce water intake two hours before collecting urine, as diluted urine samples can hinder the detection of LH peak. Immerse one end of the arrow marked line into urine, take it out and lay it flat for about three seconds, and observe the results within 5-10 minutes. The results are based on 30 minutes! The depth of the test paper inserted into the urine should not exceed the MAX marking line. Record the results and compare them daily. If it is a weak or strong positive, it is necessary to shorten the testing time. Women taking oral contraceptives need to stop taking them for two months before using ovulation test strips. Because contraceptive pills can inhibit the secretion of luteinizing hormone, causing the test paper to not show color or slightly, resulting in inaccurate measurement results. Women with endocrine system diseases such as ovarian cysts or taking hormones or steroid drugs should not use ovulation test strips.

The ovulation test strip, as one of the few things that can help female friends grasp the specific time of ovulation, has a relatively strong effect in most cases, and in many cases, the ovulation test strip can be quantitatively analyzed. Just collect multiple days of ovulation test strips for certain analysis. If you don't trust the test strips, you can also purchase similar products for electronic testing.
