How to test ovulation with test strips

The principle of test paper test

The dipstick test determines whether a woman is ovulating by measuring hormone levels in her body. During a woman's menstrual cycle, her ovaries release a hormone called human gonadotropin, which promotes egg formation. If a woman is ovulating, her body temperature will rise and her body will undergo a series of changes, which can be tested with test strips.

How to test

The testing method is very simple. You only need to insert the test paper into the urine, wait 2-3 minutes, and then observe the results on the test paper. Under normal circumstances, two lines will be displayed on the test paper, one is the state before the test, and the other is the state after the test. If there are two lines on the test paper and one is darker than the other, congratulations, you may be ovulating.

Things to note

Before using test paper for testing, make sure the test paper is fresh and not contaminated. The length of the test paper should be approximately 1 cm. The test results of the test paper can only be used as a reference and cannot be used as a final diagnosis. If there is an error in the test results, it is recommended to retest.

in conclusion

Through the test paper test, you can determine whether you are in the ovulation period and understand the changes in your body. Although the dipstick test has a certain amount of error, it is still a reliable way to determine ovulation. If you are not sure how to test, it is recommended to consult a doctor or professional.
