About the Clearblue Fertility Monitor
-------------------------------------
Taking conception to 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 Monitor
-------------------------------------------------
* It 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 Works
-------------------------------
There 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 Directions
------------------
The 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 be.
* 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 conceiving
Testing for Pregnancy

More about Predicting Ovulation
-------------------------------
As 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 -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.
