A member asked:

Does an ovulation test always turn out positive if you are pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pregnancy test: Ovulation test does not measure the hormone HCG as a pregnancy test does. What an ovulation kit measures its the hormone lh, which peaks before or around ovulation.
