How to use cheap ovulation tests | LH test strips tutorial

Ovulation tests are really useful when charting your cycle. The thing is that many fancy (digital) ovulation tests are pretty expensive to use cycle after cycle. I therefore recommend to all my patients to use the simple dipstick LH tests with nothing more than a test line and control line. So let me show you how you can start using them too and not break the bank while you’re charting.

first of, what is day 1 of the cycle? too many conflicting assuming statements just leaping away without establishing this 1 fundamntal step. is day 1 the beginning of menses OR the day after the last day of menstrual bleeding?

Great video. Thank for you information 🙏

[@johanaramirez5421]

Hi Ingefleur, I am happy you made this video, because I been having issues using them. I feel like you always know what your followers need. I almost missed my fertile window, if it wouldn’t be because I am charting my temperatures 😅, as you always suggest. Already on my 2 week wait, with my fingers crossed. Thanks 😊

[@FertilityHomeopath]

Aw Johana that makes me so happy! Fingers crossed for you this TWW!

[@InteriorsbyHer]

Can you get a surge few days to period and does it pick stress hormones

[@vcp8908]

Hello dear Ingefleur, I can not find on patreon the live session where you talk about the homeopathy that helps to trigger ovulation... And I would like to know how send you my questions. Thank you so much for your work!

[@marlenesho1453]

Hi Dear, thank you for the vedio. What about early ovulation that happen on day 5 of cycle? Any reasons for early ovulation? Thanks

[@marit7189]

🙋‍♀️ Inge. I have pcos & been ttc for yrs. I found that the lh strips do not work for me. I tested 2x a day. The test line is never dark enough but the digital ones are more sensitive & they do detect my peak. I confirm ovulation with temp, cervical muc, and position. Only ovulate every 3 mos even though i get a period every month. Can u please do a video for any advice for women ttc in their late 30s. Thank you.

[@ashleytriana5984]

Thank you! I can tell my line starts to get darker at day 14 but it always gets lighter and I ovulate a week later. Btw, when is it positive if it gets even darker than the control after your first positive?? That happens most months for me!

[@yolandagomez668]

I have pcos lh test came back high but not peek . If it's not peek just high does that mean I did not ovulate ?

[@amm0325]

I have DOR. My temps and LH didn’t match up for me last cycle, didn’t seem to have a temp spike either! It’s so hard to bbt test at the same time each morning as my work schedule fluctuates. I also think I may have been drinking too much water and I never got a positive LH, just one day in particular was higher.

[@neliasanchez-bourzac7005]

I have been using it wrong all along 🤦🏻‍♀️ I was testing with first urine

[@FertilityHomeopath]

Ha! So glad you found this video then!

[@gomathiseetharaman7527]

I used to wake up at 5 am everyday sometimes I pee at 3 am and wake up again at 5 so Will LH detect in my 2 morning urine or should I take after 8am?

[@BATOOLESK]

I had terrible nausea and bloating on 4 weeks of pregnancy now iam on week 5 and all symptoms are gone . Is this a bad sign ? Or was that before just from progesterone pessaries iam still on them

[@livinglifewithlaura2256]

What does it mean if you’re ovulation twice? Once a week after flow and then another right before flow?!

[@artsoul6360]

Can i test in the evening?

[@najmehzerafat466]

Hi and thanks for your nice video, you help me too much😊 now i have a question, iam in the 35 days of my menstrual cycle( as a PCO person my normal cycle is 32) with the baby check positive and ovulation test with surge LH . Iam really confused do too much search , i get some points , but could you please tell me in a video? As i search there is not too much video for PCO with this reason 😢 i can even send you the daily record in picture if you want. Please make a video about two surge of Lh and Hcg simultaneously 🙏🏼🙏🏼🌺

[@vcp8908]

My vaginal temperature elevates a little bit, about 36,73. Before ovulation the temperature is about 36,3. Am I ovulating according to this rise? What do you think?

[@savannahknight1738]

Hello, I have irregular cycles that last 28 days to 41 days. I used the cheaper ovulation tests this cycle and got positives on 1/16. 1/17, 2 negatives on 1/18 and then a positive today 1/19. I’ve been tracking my cycles for the last 2 years on an app and it predicted that ovulation occurred yesterday. I do have all the symptoms of ovulation, but I have not been tracking temperature. Is it possible that I’m having two LH spikes in one cycle? Is that common?

[@user-ur6cn2fi1x]

Yes thats common.I have heard it too

[@user-ie6hk9fm2s]

Hello, congratulation for your channel, very useful and full of informations I needed. Your explanations are very clear ! I have a question: they say the best moment is the ovulation day and the day after. So if the day after I try a test and the line starts to be not strong, it means the ovulation is gone or I can be still fertile? I hope you understand what I mean, sorry for my English, is not my mother language. ❤

[@InteriorsbyHer]

I’m confused I’m having a LH surge five days after when I’m supposed to get period I’m just from miscarriage

[@MrsXx]

Cycles are very unpredictable just after a miscarriage, you may have HCG present & your LH tests are finding that.

[@rosea164]

I'm very very confused I have been testing everyday starting after my period I never saw any peak or even any similar color Yesterday I had a lot of discharge (creamy) but I relied on the test and also the fact that the discharge was not egg white All of a sudden the discharge dried up and I panicked The test didn't peak today either I really don't understand why I'm not catching the peak I have tried to follow the instructions No drink or pee for 3-4 hours prior to the test Another cycle is lost😢 The reason that I want to pinpoint the ovulation, is that I want a boy

[@user-ur6cn2fi1x]

Try LH and PDG strips. PDG confirms ovulation. How would one get a boy particularly by tracking ovulation.

[@susanar2942]

Can you post a link for reliable cheap LH test strips? Thanks!

[@FertilityHomeopath]

I usually am fine with any of the LH tests I find online, but if you want brand names find the ones from PROOV, those are definitely right.

[@ElisiaAlexander-by4rk]

[@christinebeharry7084]

Can i have 2 Lh surge in one month?

[@FertilityHomeopath]

Yes, for sure, but it means you didn't ovulate the first surge

[@christinebeharry7084]
