4Are Ovulation Tests Reliable?
The US Food and Drug Administration has confirmed that ovulation tests can precisely determine the levels of E3G and LH hormones. Nevertheless, accuracy mainly depends on how you stick to the instructions. Previous studies have shown that those who tested ovulation with a connected app may be more likely to get pregnant in their first cycle. Also, some at-home test kits have been shown to increase fertility management. Keep in mind that a surge in the luteinizing hormone does not always show actual ovulation. For instance, some people with polycystic ovary syndrome may have higher levels or many peaks. Therefore, ovulation tests cannot 100% accurate. But do not worry because most tests may have an accuracy rate of up to 99 percent, depending on the menstrual cycle. If you have hormonal imbalances, nonhormonal approaches can be better. [6]
