Yes: It is normal for the ovulation test to be detected for 48 hrs after which it fades away or disappears completely. What is being tested for by the ovulation kits is a hormone called lh that surges to cause ovulation. The level then drops after the surge. It is therefore not necessary to check your ovulation kits once a positive result is seen as it will normally go away in approximately 2 days.
