The ulti med hLH Ovulation Test is a rapid chromatographc immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human luteinizing hormone (hLH) in urine to aid in the detection of ovulation.
Summary
Ovulation is the release of an egg from the ovary. The egg then passes into the fallopian tube where it is ready to be fertilized. In order for pregnancy to occur, the egg must be fertilized by sperm within 24 hours after its release. Immediately prior to ovulation, the body produces a large amount of luteinizing hormone (LH), which triggers the release of a ripened egg from the ovary. This “LH surge” usually takes place in the middle of the menstrual cycle. The ulti med Ovulation Dipstick Test is a complete system to help you predict the time of ovulation, and peak fertility. It is during this fertile time that pregnancy is most likely to occur. The ulti med Ovulation Dipstick Test detects the LH surge in urine, signaling that ovulation is likely to occur in the next 24-48 hours. Important: The LH surge and ovulation may not occur in all cycles. The ulti med hLH Ovulation Test is a complete system to help predict the time of ovulation, and peak fertility. It is during this fertile time that pregnancy is most likely to occur. The ulti med hLH Ovulation Test detects the LH surge in urine, signaling that ovulation is likely to occur in the text 24-36 hours. The test utilizes a combination of antibodies including a monoclonal LH antibody to selectively detect elevated levels of LH.
Important: The LH surge and ovulation may not occur in all menstrual cycles.
