Timing intercourse around ovulation is key to getting pregnant. Ovulation tests (OPKs) track the LH surge in your body, which signals that ovulation is near. These tests are helpful for both regular and irregular cycles, including conditions like PCOS.
There are two types: midstream tests (convenient but expensive) and test strips (more affordable and just as effective). A positive test means ovulation is likely to occur within 6-72 hours.
