Last, determine the day to start testing. Starting from and including the first day of the last period, count ahead the number of interval days. Generally, it is recommended to conduct the test once a day for 5 days.
For example, menstrual cycle is 28 days, the Interval days is 11 days according to Table 1. If the last period is on 3, Wednesday, the day to start testing is on 13, Saturday. Conduct the test once a day until 17, Wednesday.
( ): The first day of the last period;< > : The day to start testing
Note: lf it is uncertain about how many days in a menstrual cycle, please use the shortest menstrual cycle (21 days) to calculate the test starting date. In this case, it is recommended to conduct the test once a day for 10 days. If your menstrual cycle is less than 21 days or more than 40 days, please consult professional doctor for the date of starting test.
Testing
1.Urinate into a clean, dry cup or container.
2.Remove the test kit from the foil pouch and familiarize yourself with the product. The test kit should be used as soon as possible especially at temperature higher than 30℃ or highly humidity environment.
3.Strip:Put the test strip in the urine sample at the direction of arrow. Do not pass max line. Wait for at least about 5s and then immediately lay the test kit on a flat surface.
Cassette: Put the test cassette on the table, add 3 full drops urine vertically into sample well (S ) by dropper.
Midstream: Remove the midstream cap, put the test midstream in the urine sample container Wait for at least about 5s and then lay the test kit on a flat surface. If you prefer, tip pointing downward directly into your urine stream.
4.Wait for about 5 minutes and then read the result. Don't read the result after 10 minutes.
[Result Interpretation]
Positive (+) : Two red lines are visible. One is located in the test line region (T), the other is in control line region (C).And the line in test line region (T) is the same as or darker than the one in the control line region (C) It indicates probable ovulation in 24-48 hours.
Negative (-) : One or two red lines are visible. One is located in the test region (T), the other is in control region (C).And T line is lighter than the C line, or there was no T line. It indicates that no LH surge has been detected.
Invalid: There is no red line in control region (C).Incorrect operation or the product has been damaged are the most likely reasons. Please repeat the test with a new test. If the problem still exists, should stop using the product immediately and contact with local suppliers.
[Limitations]
1.This test may not be used as a form of birth control.
