the next level, the Clearblue Fertility Monitor maximizes a woman’s chances of
conceiving a baby by identifying 3x more fertile days compared to traditional
ovulation tests. This electronic, hand-held monitor tracks a woman’s personal
cycle, detecting two key ovulation hormones: luteinizing hormone (LH) and
estrogen. Using the two hormones, the device can pinpoint not only a woman’s 2
peak fertility days, but also 1-5 additional high fertility days prior to
ovulation – for a total of up to 6 fertile days.Benefits of Using the
Clearblue Fertility MonitorIt has been shown to accurately predict ovulation
when compared to serum hormone measurements and vaginal ultrasound scans2, but
testing can be done at home and at a fraction of the cost.It gives a more
accurate indication of more fertile days than any other home method.It’s
quick, easy to use, and easy to understand. The Monitor indicates when to test
and the level of fertility every day, requiring no subjective
interpretation.It personalizes to a woman’s cycle, storing her information for
up to six previous menstrual cycles.It’s natural – no drugs or invasive
devices and procedures.It gives advance notice of Peak Fertility, so couples
can plan intercourse at their convenience.How the Fertility Monitor WorksThere
are only a few days per cycle when a woman is fertile and can conceive. The
following chart outlines the phases of a woman’s menstrual cycle, showing how
the two most fertile days coincide with the LH surge (24-36 hours before
ovulation) and the release of an egg (ovulation). These are a woman’s 2 best
days to conceive a baby.However, it is generally acknowledged that sperm can
survive up to 5 days in the sperm-supportive mucus found in a woman’s body
during the fertile days of her cycle meaning there is a fertile window of
typically up to 6 days: 5 days before ovulation plus the day of ovulation.
Traditional ovulation tests like Clearblue Digital Ovulation Test track the LH
hormone and identify a 2 day window of fertility. But the Fertility Monitor
also tracks estrogen levels, which rise just before the LH surge, extending
the fertile window typically up to 6 days. This extended window can help to
reduce the time it takes to conceive2 as it gives more days to try, plus gives
advance notice of the 2 peak days.Testing DirectionsThe Fertility Monitor is
easy to use and gives you clear accurate results.On the first day of your
period, you will press the M button to let the monitor know a new cycle has
begun.Each day, you must switch on the Monitor and follow its directions.On
mornings when the Monitor requires further information about your hormone
changes, a test will be requested.Simply remove the test stick from its
wrapper. (The majority of women need 10 test sticks each cycle. Women with
irregular or long cycles may have to use 20 test sticks each cycle.) Point the
Sampling End of the test stick downstream in your urine for 3 seconds.Take the
cap off the handle and place it over the Sampling End of the test stick and
remove any excess urine.Holding the test stick by the cap, insert the test
into the Monitor’s Test Stick Slot, pressing down until it clicks into
place.The display will flash for approximately 5 minutes while reading your
information.After 5 minutes, the Remove Test Stick symbol will flash. Once you
have removed the test stick, your fertile status will be displayed.Low
fertility = very small chance of conceiving High fertility = increased chance
of conceiving Peak fertility = highest chance of conceivingTesting for
PregnancyWhen you’re ready to test for pregnancy, choose a brand and product
you can trust. In the Clearblue Pregnancy Test Buying Guide, we outline the
different features of pregnancy tests so you can feel maximum confidence
throughout the entire conception process.More about Predicting OvulationAs the
diagram above illustrates, timing is key when trying to conceive a baby. While
there are manual charting and calculator methods that may be used to predict
ovulation, these methods often fall short. They require tracking a woman’s
typical cycle length over several months. However, every woman’s cycle is
unique and cycles for any one woman can vary from cycle to cycle – making
calendar-based predictions unreliable prediction as well as time-consuming.
That’s why Clearblue provides a range of products to help predict ovulation
without months of charting. You can learn more about predicting ovulation and
which method is right for you in our Ovulation Test Buying Guide.1 Behre HM et
