WHEN TO BEGIN TESTING?
Determine the length of your menstrual cycle before the test (The length of the menstrual cycle is the duration from your first menstrual bleeding day to the day before the next bleeding begins). Please refer to the chart below to determine when you should start testing. If you do not know your cycle length, you may begin the test 11 days after your first period since the average cycle length is 28 days.
Example: If your cycle length is normally 26 days,the chart indicates testing should begin on day 10.
WHAT IS OVULATION?
Ovulation is the release of a mature egg from the ovary. It signals the beginning of your fertile period.
LH (Luteinizing Hormone) is one of the hormones produced by the pituitary gland. It is secreted at very low levels throughout your menstrual cycle. Once a developing egg follicle reaches a certain size, LH secretion surges to high levels. This hormone surge is what triggers ovulation about 24 to 48 hours later. Your LH surge is important because it initiates the beginning of ovulation.  A positive result indicates the presence of a high amount of Luteinizing Hormone or LH surge.
