How to check ovulation

Measure basal body temperature

Measuring basal body temperature is one way to check ovulation. Basal body temperature refers to the body temperature measured every morning when you wake up starting from the first day of menstruation. If the body temperature gradually rises before ovulation and reaches about 37 degrees, then this period is the ovulation period. This method requires measuring and recording body temperature changes every day in order to analyze trends in body temperature changes.

Use a pregnancy test stick

Using a pregnancy test is another way to check for ovulation. Pregnancy tests can detect pregnancy by detecting the concentration in urine. If the pregnancy test stick shows two lines, then this period is the ovulation period. However, the accuracy of pregnancy test sticks is limited. If you don’t want to get pregnant, it’s best to get pregnant during a safe period.

Watch for symptoms

In addition to measuring basal body temperature and using a pregnancy test stick, observing symptoms can also determine ovulation. For example, some women experience symptoms such as increased sexual desire, breast swelling, abdominal pain, and headaches during ovulation. These symptoms may appear within a day but may last for several days. If these symptoms occur, then this is the period of ovulation.

Summarize

By measuring basal body temperature, using a pregnancy test stick, and observing symptoms, you can determine the ovulation period and take appropriate measures to ensure pregnancy. However, the accuracy of these methods is limited. If you don't want to get pregnant, it is best to get pregnant during a safe period.
