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.
