Ovulation symptoms

What symptoms can be observed or verified in connection with immi-
nent ovulation?
• Temperature rise
• Change in cervical mucus
• Increase in LH concentration in the urine
Temperature rise
The temperature rise is monitored and evaluated by cyclotest® 2 plus.
The unit is able to store further symptoms which you input. This com-
bined evaluation of temperature and symptom information is known
as the symptothermal method.
The chance of pregnancy exists only when sperm cells capable of
fertilising find a fertilisable egg cell.
The symptoms mentioned – nature of cervical mucus and increase in
LH concentration – point to a fertilisable egg cell. Your fertilisability
ends when the temperature high stabilises after ovulation.
In this event, no babies are indicated in the cyclotest® 2 plus display.

Operating the unit
Change in cervical mucus
The nature of the cervical mucus at the neck of the uterus changes
shortly prior to ovulation. When this change is detected (stretchabili-
ty), the corresponding day must be marked in the current cycle.
A certain amount of experience is required to assess the cervical
mucus. NFP advice centres (NFP = Natural Family Planning) can offer
the necessary help in this respect. We will be pleased to send you a list
of selected advice centres on request.
Increase in LH concentration in the urine
An increased concentration of the ovulation hormone LH in the urine
indicates that ovulation is imminent. This can be verified using cy-
clotest® Ovulation Test. If the test proves positive, enter the result on
the corresponding day in the current cycle information.
Please use the test sticks only if you see 2 babies in the display (Fig.
no. 15, page 63). cyclotest® Ovulation Test is available from all good
pharmacists (item no. 9035, PZN 01399381).
