How to measure ovulation day most accurately

Nowadays, more and more couples live in different places and can only be together at certain times, which will affect pregnancy. In fact, if you want to get pregnant faster, you can have sex during your ovulation period, which can increase the chance of conception. So how to measure the ovulation day most accurately? Here are several methods to detect the ovulation period.

1. Basic body temperature detection method

Every morning after waking up and before getting up to move around, measure your body temperature for 3 minutes and record the measurement data in a timely manner.

Women's basal body temperature is very regular, just like their menstrual cycle. A woman's body temperature usually rises by 0.3℃-0.5℃ from the day of ovulation to the next menstrual period. The basal body temperature of a normally ovulating woman lasts for about two weeks from the first day of menstruation to the day of ovulation, and the high temperature period also lasts for two weeks. This phenomenon of body temperature being low at first and high at the end indicates that the ovulation function of the ovaries is normal. Ovulation usually occurs before the body temperature rises or during the process of rising body temperature.

2. Changes in vaginal discharge

Female vaginal secretions generally come from cervical mucus. The secretions will gradually increase before ovulation and become thinner and translucent. During ovulation, the amount of mucus is the largest, and it is stringy and looks like smooth egg white. During ovulation, the phenomenon of large amounts of mucus secretion will last for 2-3 days. After ovulation, the changes in progesterone prevent the secretion of mucus, and thus vaginal secretions begin to decrease. One thing that should be noted is that under pathological conditions, the appearance of vaginal discharge in women will be different from the egg white sample mentioned above, and you should see a doctor at this time.

3. Test with ovulation test strips

The luteinizing hormone contained in women's urine usually reaches a peak level within 2 days before ovulation. The peak level of luteinizing hormone can be measured more accurately using ovulation test strips. The ovulation date should be detected by test strips at a fixed time every day. If the luteinizing hormone is approaching its peak, the color of the test line on the test strip will gradually darken. At this time, it should be tested every 12 hours until the peak appears. The method of using ovulation test strips to test the ovulation day has a high accuracy rate and is an ideal method.

Women should start testing on the tenth day after their period, initially once a day until the color of the test line gradually becomes darker, then increase to once every 4 hours, and try to get a strong positive result because ovulation occurs when a strong positive turns weak.
