How ovulation Tests Work

Ovulation tests or Ovulation Predictor Kits (OPKs) work by detecting the level of Luteinising Hormone (LH) in a woman’s urine. Unlike some other methods for predicating ovulation OPKs are useful in that they anticipate when ovulation is about to occur rather than simply confirming that it has already taken place.

Throughout the menstrual cycle a small amount of a hormone called Luteinising hormone (LH) is produced. Approximately 24-36 hours before ovulation the body briefly produces a large amount of this hormone. This large release of luteinising hormone is referred to as the 'LH Surge'. The LH surge triggers ovulation, which will typically occur within the next 24-36 hours.

Ovulation predictor tests are designed to detect these higher levels of luteinising hormone (>25mIU) which occur during the LH surge.

Ovulation predictor tests are quick and easy to use and come in a variety of styles including strips, tiles and midstream. When to begin testing is determined by the length of your cycle. Typically, testing starts three days before your estimated time of ovulation. For example, you should begin testing on Day 11 of your cycle if you have a 28 day menstrual cycle or Day 15 if you have a 32 day cycle. Continue carrying out one test mid-afternoon over the next five days, or until a positive result is obtained.
