OvaCue Fertility Monitors
If you're interested in a fertility monitor but you don't want to deal with the complex process of reading ferning scopes or analyzing urine samples, consider OvaCue fertility monitors. These products are not only easy-to-use and very accurate--they're also quite affordable. In the end, it's an investment that's well worth the payoff, a fact you'll remember every time you hug your newborn son or daughter.
How Do OvaCue Fertility Monitors Work?
OvaCue fertility monitors use small sensors to analyze electrolyte levels in the saliva. Just before ovulation, during the peak fertility period, a woman's electrolyte levels rise. OvaCue's small sensor, which is placed on the tongue for five seconds every morning, senses and calculates the electrolyte levels in the saliva, and it stores this information to help you determine fertility patterns.
For those who want even more information, a vaginal sensor can also be used. This vaginal sensor takes an electrolyte reading of the vaginal mucous to ensure the reading from the saliva sensor is accurate. OvaCue fertility monitors do not come equipped with a vaginal sensor, but those individuals who want to be extra sure that everything is on target can always purchase this item separately.
Another plus that sets OvaCue fertility monitors apart is the wealth of information they offer. Unlike their less expensive cousins, OvaCue fertility monitors will calculate each of the following: the current day's fertility status (between one and seven bars), the current cycle day, maximum fertility days for the current cycle, ovulation status, and the beginning and end of the fertile period. With the right kind of information, you can plan ahead to make sure you're ready to take advantage of your most fertile days.
