I have a much clearer understanding now. Bought the kit a month ago and haven’t used it because I didn’t know how lol.

We are so happy this video cleared things up!

@@bowjana8128 Hi there! Our specialists do not think this is necessary, and we actually covered this topic in our most recent mythbusting video. Be sure to check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6LSlmCdlrmHkNk

[@MsDangeress]

Thank you for this video. I appreciate you sharing and for all the details :) I’m curious when you say intercourse five days before ovulation, does this refer to the high peak days?

[@premomfertility]

Yes, if you've gotten positive ovulation tests for several days you are still fertile. Sperm can live in the body for up to 5 days, while an egg can live for only 24 hours. If you want to boost your chances of getting pregnant and want to be more certain of ovulation day among all the positive results, know that the darkest line is your peak day, which signals that the egg will be released from the ovary within the next 24-36 hours.

Amazing, doc! Do you prefer the quantitative for PCOS pt’s?

[@premomfertility]

Yes, the quantitative strips are generally recommended and preferred by those who have PCOS.

[@CrazieFrogz]

Thank you for asking that perfect question

[@shaifafarooqui6861]

I have the Premom strips, but I loaded my results in the easy@home tab by mistake. Are the results useful in anyway. I just started this last month so a bit new to this..thank you

[@premomfertility]

Hello Shaifa, you can save the photo, and reupload it to the corrected folder. There is even an option to adjust the dates if needed in the photo gallery. Then simply delete the incorrected ones. I hope this helps!

[@karenolson9258]

Is it okay if we dip the quantitative strips and ratio ones in the same cup? Will it alter results?

[@premomfertility]

You can use the same urine sample for both tests, but it's important that you upload each test to its correct tab in Premom's test gallery because the results will be read differently.

[@rubymirza3142]

Why am I not getting a high or peak when testing x

[@CrazieFrogz]

I seen a line but camera does not pick it up... What do we do with that?

[@premomfertility]

You should always have a control line (line closest to the handle of the strip) that appears if your test was performed correctly. If your test line appears to be very faint, your levels are still too low and you should test again the next day.

[@sammi0816]

Hello, I just bought the ovulation and pregnancy kit. Is the App free? Can you use the strips without the App?

[@normadeleon7242]

When you're at your high Peak what should your bbt be ?

[@premomfertility]

The actual temp number is very dependent on your normal temperature. What your wanting to look for is a shift in temperatures 24-48 hour after ovulation to confirm you ovulated. Your temps should stay elevated through the luteal phase of your cycle. To learn more about BBT tracking, highly recommend checking out our blog post: premom.com/blogs/how-bbt-works-as-an-ovulation-calculator/how-basal-body-temperature-works-as-an-ovulation-calculator

[@maramoon66]

Hi! On the leaflet that comes with the easy at home it says to read them between 7-10 min I am doing it now at 7 min because when I used to fo it at 3/5 it only showed 0.20 and it was still pink

[@premomfertility]

For the ovulation test, read the result at 5-10 minutes. If the dye does not clear at 5 minutes, please wait a little longer before taking pictures. Do not read the result or take pictures after 10 minutes, or it will be considered inaccurate.😊

[@danaeshelley8922]

I use ovulation strips and on my last peak day, my T/C ratio was 1.06 - how does this correlate with LH?

[@premomfertility]

The T/C ratio of 1.06 indicates that your test result is positive, which means your surge came. If that ratio is deemed as "peak", you are likely to ovulate within the next 24-36 hours, which is the most fertile window. Good luck!

[@jacquelinelee8814]

Which line is suppose to be darker 2nd line

[@premomfertility]

The test line (line closer to the max fill line) will change dependent on your LH throughout your cycle. Here is a blog on what a T/C ratio is premom.com/blogs/what-is-premom-and-why-premom/what-is-a-t-c-ratio?_pos=1&_sid=4e9eabf72&_ss=r

[@Patita_heart]

Hello! I'm now using these ovulation strips,I usual wait 8 minutes for the results and then I stick the ovulation strips into my TTC book, and when I have revised my book I found that some T lines have gotten darker.. I take the photo again and give me another different LH level.. Why could this be? Do I have to wait more time to get more accurate results? Thank you!

[@premomfertility]

Hi Patricia, you should read your test results and take the picture at 5 minutes or just after the dye has finished clearing the testing window. Do not read the test after 10 minutes as the test becomes invalid.

[@tiffanystars3156]

If your testing 2 times a day how long should you wait to test again. Also I usually have to get up early morning 3am to pee. Should this be my first test?

[@premomfertility]

It is usually not best to use first-morning urine. We recommend testing between 11am-7pm for our test strips. Testing should be at least 3-4 hours apart. If you still have questions on OPKs, please see our blog on using ovulation tests: premom.com/blogs/how-to-use-ovulation-tests/how-to-use-ovulation-tests

[@bibinbabu8738]

I have only left ovary fertile one, how much size of an egg needed for a healthy pregnancy? Please reply too stressed

Size doesn't matter. But with one ovary working, you ovulate every other month vs every month.

[@stacymccaa4341]

So its normal to have all low days & then only 1 high day and the next day be at peak & then back low again the next day? Thats what mine is showing.

[@premomfertility]

Yes, that would be a rapid onset surge pattern. A rapid onset means the LH surge can happen quickly within a few hours. Here is a video that explains the difference between the two types of surge patterns: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXfGaHZviteYqqc

[@steveyrose9936]

Is it normal for LH to jump up & down before your peak?

[@premomfertility]

Yes, there can be some slight variation. It could be due to how diluted your urine sample was at the time of testing if you were testing at different times of the day. It's best to try and test every day at the same time and try and drink a consistent amount of water each day to get the most accurate readings.

I never get a high or peak...what should I do? I am definetly ovulating and guessing that i have a rapid rise...i test many times but no luck yet :(

[@Etse-dj1wm]

When you say test two times a day, should that be a 12 hours difference between tests?

[@premomfertility]

We say at least 4 hours in between testing would be sufficient. Just remember to limit your liquid intake to at least 2 hours before testing.

[@Etse-dj1wm]

@@premomfertility Thank you! I finally got my first peak.

[@premomfertility]

@@Etse-dj1wm Yes! Remember to keep testing even after getting a peak result to be sure you don't have a higher result following. You should see your levels begin to fall back down to low again. It's important to have intercourse tonight and log it in Premom!

[@professional9666]

Dr how many hrs i should hold urine for this test

[@premomfertility]

We recommend that you just limit your liquid intake to at least 2 hours before testing. The best time to test would be from 10AM to 8PM since it takes a bit of time for the lutienzing hormone (LH) to build up in your system.

[@ShootingStars728]

Is my first time using the strips this month I been waiting to get pregnant for a while now. I use this app called Flow to track my period & it has work for telling me my period but I don’t think it has for my ovulation days. Me & my husband done the baby dance when it said that my ovulation day are & we have not been lucky with Flow. I watched videos about this strips & wanted to give it a try. This has been my first month trying them I also downloaded the app & been tracking everything when I test. So I have a question so when should I start using the pregnant strips to find out if I’m pregnant? How long after my past ovulation day I could or should start testing to see if I’m pregnant. Today is my ovulation day so I already did the baby dance. I will do it again the day after ovulation day. I heard that it takes some months to get pregnant I been trying for some time now that I wish I can be pregnant by the end of this month. Fingers cross 🤞🏼that I am I’m gonna continue stay positive. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Good luck to the girls that are trying to become pregnant sending baby dust your way. ✨✨✨ I hope y’all can answer my question thanks.

[@premomfertility]

Hello! We are so happy to have you join our Premom family. Let me help clarify some of your questions. We recommend taking a pregnancy test with first-morning urine and that you wait till your first missed period day. This is because some women will test early and show a negative but still could be positive for that cycle. Happy Ovulation Day! Yes, we always recommend you time intercourse to your LH peak day (day before ovulation day) and ovulation day as those are the two most fertile days of your cycle. It can take on average 6-9 months to get pregnant and those are if you are accurately tracking every cycle. I hope this helped and we are hoping for a BFP (big fat positive) test for you this cycle. Sending you much baby dust! ✨ ✨

hello! i downloaded the app today and uploaded my results, it say i am 37.5 high. Is it normal? and does it mean i am ovulating?

[@premomfertility]

If you are using the Premom Quantitative Tests (Purple handles), those tests will read your LH levels present in your urine and it wouldn't be uncommon to see high results. Be sure to keep testing until you reach your 'peak' test result and you see your levels fall back down to low.

[@melvisbih440]

Can do ovalating text without period i mean when you are not seeing your period

[@premomfertility]

You will need to ovulate in order to get a period so by testing for ovulation you may be able to identify your LH surge before your next period. Baby dust!

[@luceroarias5485]

I finally got my positive ovulation test so do i baby dance tonight or tomorrow?

[@premomfertility]

Hi Lucero, please know the ovulation usually occurs within 24-36 hours after LH peak. The most fertile window will be the day before peak, peak day and the day after peak. It’s recommended to try every other day in the fertile window, the day of your peak test and always the following day (and the next if possible)to increase your chance of conception. Baby dust to you!❤

[@msjonesest1986]

Is it 5 minutes in the urine or 5 minutes after you've dipped in the urine and set it aside?

[@premomfertility]

5 minutes after you've dipped. When dipping, watch for the dye to get activated and start to rise into the testing window. Then lay it flat on a white surface and wait for the red dye to finish clearing the testing window before reading.

[@broitsjustjen]

is it possible to get pregnant if you had sex 2 days before the positive opk?

[@premomfertility]

It is possible to get pregnant anytime during your fertile window (5 days before ovulation day and ovulation day). Here is a video that you may find helpful to watch: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXfGaHZviteYqqc

[@mabelchinemerem]

Can i get my period without ovulation? I mean can i still get period with inovulation?

[@premomfertility]

Yes, you can have a menstrual period without ovulation. This is called an anovulatory cycle. Anovulatory cycles can happen due to factors like stress or hormonal imbalances. If this occurs frequently, consulting a healthcare professional is advised.

The excessive "umm" is really distracting and detracts from your confidence and credibility.

[@KLnails]

Yes, as a public speaker, umms shows that you may be confused or not so sure of your speaking about. If you aren’t confused or you know what your talking about, this speech was not practiced and may be mixing up details in their head so they say ummm to have a moment to think what was next .

[@KLnails]

She is using ummm as a verbal pause. She knows what she is talking about, she is just using umm as a pause before continuing

[@KLnails]

She also had maintained well eye contact while speaking which shows the confidence in her words as she says ummm she looks to the side to think of what was next. It don’t necessarily mean she isn’t credible. It just may distract the audience a bit

[@KLnails]

Even the best speakers in the world still says ummm every now and then.
