Would you like to know more about your cycle to maximize your chances of conceiving? At Soin-et-nature, we offer ovulation tests designed to accurately detect the peak of luteinizing hormone (LH), a key indicator of impending ovulation. Easy to use, reliable and quick to dispatch, these devices help you pinpoint the most fertile period of the cycle. It's a simple, natural and reassuring way to support you step by step in your pregnancy project.
The ovulation test is a test that detects your ovulation period, an important parameter to know in order to optimize your chances of pregnancy, or when pregnancy is overdue. During each cycle, a woman is fertile for only a very short period: 3-4 days before ovulation and on the day of ovulation. Determining your ovulation period therefore enables you to identify your fertile period, or fertilization window, so you can plan your sexual relations at the right time.
Available over the counter in pharmacies and on the Internet, these tests take the form of strips or sticks onto which the woman places a few drops of urine, preferably at the same time of day.
The test detects luteinizing hormone (LH) and, more specifically, the LH peak. This hormone is produced in greater quantities 24 to 36 hours before ovulation: from less than 10 IU/ml at the start of the cycle to almost 70 IU/ml at the ovulatory peak, it is this rise in LH that triggers ovulation.
It is not necessary to carry out an ovulation test every day of the cycle; it would be unnecessary and costly. When choosing the date on which to start using the test, doctors recommend subtracting 16 to 18 days from the length of the cycle. For a 28-day cycle, for example, testing should start on day 10 (28-18), i.e. 10 days after the start of menstruation. If no ovulation has been detected after 10 days of testing, it is advisable to repeat the tests in the next cycle, starting two days earlier.
In the case of variable cycles, it's best to use the shortest cycle and start testing earlier, so as not to miss ovulation. If cycles are very long (more than 40 days), very short (less than 22 days) or irregular, it's advisable to use another method, such as the temperature curve, to check for ovulation first.
