Ovulation Posted: 07-19-05 19:05pm
I'm about to buy that ovulation test kit
... My cycles are usually 28-29 days ...
I'm still a little bit confused on how to
use it ... Does anyone know how to use
it?

I've never used an ovulation kit but i'm
assuming there would be directions in the
box, just like a pregnancy test has them.

The kits usually have instructions in
them. I usually start testing about 11
days after my last period. (the kits
usually have about 6 or 7 sticks). When
the lh surge is detected, the stick will
show a line, or a second line, depending
on the type you are using. When you
detect the lh surge, you are due to
ovualte in appox. 24-48 hours so you
should have intercourse over the next day
to four or so days, just to be sure. All
kits are probably different so read the
instructions. If you don't detect the lh
surge, continue testing daily until you
do. (that is why there are 6-7 test
sticks). Also, most of them say to use
it when you first wake up in the morning
or try to hold your urine for four hours
or more. Good luck to you!!! I hope
this helped.
