I've never used them but I think they work just like a pregnancy test. You pee on them around the time you think you're ovulating and if it turns pink then you're definitely ovulating and you need to go get busy! I have a steady 28 day cycle so I pretty much know when i'm ovulating and I also have a lot of sex so I don't use them. I think if you have an irregular cycle they'd be useful or if you wanted to check to make sure you're ovulating at all. They're also a little expensive, I think.

I used one once trying to get pregnant with my first. You just pee on them like a pregnancy test. I got pregnant the month that I used the test. They get kind of pricey if you are using them every month.

Easy, Yet Not
I found using ovulation tests easy, yet not at the same time. Going on the stick was simple. However, the line is supposed to be really dark when you are ovulating. It starts to show up a few days before, but it is hard to tell when it is 'dark enough'. I tried them my first two months and got so disgusted that I stopped using them. Also, the line turns dark anywhere from 12 to 36 hours before you ovulate. So, if you take them in the morning and it is dark, do you have to hurry and have sex right away or do you have time to wait until after work? Lol they are very expensive and there are only a few in a box. If you start testing too soon, you end up buying more than one box. Found that one out the hard way.

They are very very easy to use! You can use them in the morning or afternoon..Which ever best fits your schedule!


And they always come with instructions on usage and interpreting!



Good luck with them!
