This makes it seem like there’s a small window of time to conceive a baby each month. </p></div><div><p>However, sperm can live in your body for up to 5 days. So even if you don’t have sex during that 24-hour ovulation window, you may still <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/how-to-increase-chances-of-getting-pregnant" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">conceive</a> if you’ve had sex a few days before.</p></div><div class="css-20w1gi"><aside class="css-0 css-0" data-testid="sticky-inline-ad" data-sticky="false"><div><div data-empty="true" class="css-1sq15os"><div class="css-1hjaa0k"><span class="css-zya54r"></span></div><div id="inline2__slot" data-adbridg-ad-class="inline2__slot" data-ad="true" class="css-1t05dkn"></div></div></div></aside></div></div><div class="css-1avyp1d"><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><h2><div><a class="chartbeat-section" name="when-to-test">What day should I start testing ovulation?</a></div></h2></div><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><p>The best time to start testing ovulation is a few days before you’re scheduled to ovulate. Ovulation occurs midway through your menstrual cycle, give or take a few days.</p></div><div><p>Your most <a href="https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/17-fertility-tips-to-get-pregnant" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">fertile</a> days of the month are 1 to 2 days before and after your ovaries release an egg. Sperm can live in the body for up to 5 days. So, conception can occur if you have sex 5 days before ovulation, and up to 1 day after ovulation.</p></div><div><p>Predicting ovulation is easier when you have a regular menstrual cycle. With a 28-day cycle, you’ll likely ovulate on or around day 14, so you’ll want to start testing around day 10 or 11.</p></div><div><p>If you have a short cycle, you can assume that ovulation will most likely occur <a href="https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/getting-pregnant/in-depth/how-to-get-pregnant/art-20047611" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">within 4 days of your cycle’s midpoint</a>. So, you should start using an ovulation test kit 4 to 6 days prior to your cycle’s midpoint.</p></div><span class="css-zya54r"></span></div><div class="css-1avyp1d"><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><h2><div><a class="chartbeat-section" name="best-time-of-day">When is the best time of day to use an ovulation test kit?</a></div></h2></div><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><p>There’s no wrong or right time of day to test ovulation. Some women prefer to test their urine in the morning, whereas others test it in the afternoon or evening. Whatever time you choose, make sure to test at the same time each day. </p></div><div><p>Keep in mind that liquid can dilute the amount of <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/lh-surge" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">luteinizing hormone (LH)</a> in your urine. If this happens, it can appear as if you’re not ovulating when you are. So limit your intake of fluids about 2 hours before testing. It also helps not to urinate 1 to 2 hours before testing.</p></div><div><p>For the reasons above, many women use ovulation test kits right when they wake up. Testing in the morning also allows you plenty of time to <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/healthy-sex/morning-sex" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">get it on</a> if the test gives you the green light!</p></div></div><div class="css-1avyp1d"><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><h2><div><a class="chartbeat-section" name="irregular-cycles">Testing ovulation with an irregular menstrual cycle</a></div></h2></div><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><p>Ovulation test kits are more accurate when you have a <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/how-to-regulate-periods" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">regular cycle </a>because it’s easier to predict the midway point of your cycle. But don’t worry — ovulation testing can still work if you have an irregular cycle. You’ll just have to test more often. </p></div><div><p>While women with a regular cycle only need to test ovulation once a month, someone with an <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/womens-health/irregular-periods-home-remedies#1" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">irregular cycle</a> will have to test more frequently. You’ll start testing a few days after your period and then once every week thereafter. </p></div><div><p>Even with an irregular cycle, you can look for the telltale signs of ovulation indicating that it’s time to start using a test kit. You’ll need to pay attention to bodily changes like <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/vaginal-discharge" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">vaginal discharge</a> and basal body temperature.</p></div><div><p>Start using an ovulation test kit if you notice any of these symptoms:</p></div><div><ul><li>increased <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/womens-health/cervical-mucus" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">cervical mucus</a>, particularly discharge that feels slippery when wiping or has an egg-white-like consistency</li><li>an increase in your <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/basal-body-temperature" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">basal body temperature</a></li><li>increased sex drive</li><li><a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/pregnancy/ovulation-bleeding" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">light spotting</a></li><li>mild pelvic pain</li></ul></div><span class="css-zya54r"></span></div><div class="css-1avyp1d"><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><h2><div><a class="chartbeat-section" name="how-to">How to test ovulation</a></div></h2></div><span style="font-size:0;line-height:0"></span><div><p>Ovulation test strips are designed to detect levels of <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/lh-blood-test" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">luteinizing hormone</a> (LH) in your urine. This hormone signals ovulation, which is the release of an egg from your ovaries into the fallopian tube. </p></div><div><p>While <a href="https://www.healthline.com/health/fertility/ovulation-test-strips" class="content-link css-1c2ok3c">ovulation test strips</a> can determine your most fertile days, they’re not 100 percent accurate. But don’t worry too much — they can have an accuracy rate up to 99 percent, depending on your menstrual cycle.</p></div><div><p>To test ovulation, you can urinate on the test stick, or urinate in a cup and place the stick in the urine. Results are usually available in about 5 minutes. </p></div><div><p>Ovulation test kits have two lines: One is the control line that signals the test is working properly while the other is the test line. This line will be lighter or darker than the control line, depending on whether you’re ovulating.</p></div><div><p>The test line appears lighter when you have a low level of LH in your body. It’ll appear darker when there’s a higher level of LH in your body.
