Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Package instructions: Each ovulation kit has a package insert that has pictures to help one interpret the result. Compare your test result to the package insert. Then you will be able to know if the test indicates ovulation or not.
