How Does It Work?

Just before ovulation, the body produces a large amount of LH; this LH surge usually occurs in the middle of the menstrual cycle. The test detects this LH surge in urine, predicting that ovulation is likely to occur within the next 24–36 hours. The test line is lighter or darker depending on the LH concentration, while the control line confirms that the test is working and has been used correctly. Important: an LH surge and ovulation do not necessarily occur in every menstrual cycle.

Who Is It For?

For women who are planning a baby and want to identify their most fertile days. The 5 tests allow you to test on several consecutive days around the expected middle of your cycle.

Why a Home Rapid Test?

The test can be done discreetly in your own home, without an appointment, and gives a result within minutes. This makes it easier to decide whether you should see a doctor, and you can take the result with you to the consultation. It is especially useful if you find it hard to make time for an appointment at a doctor's office or are looking for a more discreet option.

Use and Storage

Please follow the instructions for use in the package exactly, especially the steps on sample collection and reading time, as following them affects the result. Read the instructions all the way through before collecting the sample, and have a clock or timer ready so you keep to the reading time. Keep the test in its original, unopened packaging until use.

Important Information

The rapid test gives a preliminary, informational result: it does not provide a diagnosis and does not replace a medical examination. If the result is positive or uncertain, or if your symptoms persist despite a negative result, see a doctor, who will decide on any further tests.
