What is LH and why should I measure it?

Tracking LH levels during the first half of your cycle can help you detect an LH surge, which indicates you’ve reached your two most fertile days (also called “peak fertility”). This is the time to “try!”  During the first half of your cycle — the “follicular phase” — your follicles mature in preparation for ovulation. When the time is right, your brain sends a surge of LH (luteinizing hormone) to trigger the mature follicle to release an egg. Ovulation typically occurs about 12-48 hours after an LH surge.

What is PdG and why should I measure it?

Measuring PdG levels provides insight into ovulation quality, a piece of the fertility puzzle that you can’t get from BBT or blood tests alone. It all starts with progesterone, a hormone important for successful implantation and pregnancy that your body only produces after ovulation. After circulating through the bloodstream, progesterone is released from the body as the urinary metabolite (or “marker”), Pregnanediol Glucuronide (PdG), which is highest during the implantation window. With the Proov Insight app you can take your results one step further and receive numerical PdG results.

Sustained, elevated PdG levels during the second half of your cycle — the “luteal phase” — is an indication of successful ovulation, which in turn increases your chances of successful conception. In fact, studies show that elevated PdG during the luteal phase raises chances of successful pregnancy from 19% to 92%. 

Why should I use LH and PdG tests together?

LH tests predict your two most fertile days and PdG tests provide quantitative proof that ovulation did in fact occur and was successful enough to allow for the best possible chance at conception. Using the two together sets you up for success by providing even more insight to help you reach your goals. 

What is ovulation quality and why should I care?

Contrary to popular belief, there is more than one way to ovulate. A high-quality or “successful” ovulation occurs when an egg is released and PdG levels remain adequately elevated throughout the implantation window — long enough to allow for the best possible chance at conception. Tracking ovulation quality provides a key piece of the fertility puzzle that is not fully revealed by BBT and blood tests. You can get your unique ovulation quality analysis directly from the Proov Insight app.

I’ve never seen PdG tests before. Are these new?

Our CEO and founder, Dr. Amy Beckley, invented the first PdG test in 2016 after her own struggle with infertility. After 7 miscarriages and 2 rounds of IVF, Amy used her background in hormone science to discover an ovulatory disorder was causing her infertility, and learned her struggle could have been prevented by an inexpensive hormone supplement. You can read more about Amy’s story here.

When do I use Proov Predict & Confirm?

Since Proov Predict & Confirm requires testing different hormones at different phases of your cycle, we strongly recommend downloading the free Proov Insight app for all-month digital tracking and testing reminders. While the app is a great way to manage your testing, each kit includes detailed instructions.

Why do I need to take a baseline PdG test?

Great question! Elevated PdG during the period after peak fertility (the “implantation window”) suggests that successful ovulation occurred and your body is prepared for conception. However, every woman’s natural levels are different. To understand what “elevated” means, you must first establish a PdG reading early in the cycle when we expect levels to be low (right after your period or on cycle day 5 — whichever comes later). This is your baseline, and it’s essential for accurately interpreting your Proov PdG results later in your cycle. The free Proov Insight app makes it easy to know when to test your baseline and provides all-month digital tracking, immediate numerical results, details on what your results mean, and action plans to help you meet your goals.

Why do I need to test PdG on days 7-10 past peak fertility?

The patented Proov PdG testing protocol recommends testing on days 7-10 past peak fertility because these are the days during your cycle when having elevated PdG levels is critical for successful conception. Elevated PdG is a marker of elevated progesterone, which supports implantation. Studies show that elevated levels of PdG during the 7-10 day window can improve chances at successful pregnancy.

Do I need to use first morning urine with Proov Predict & Confirm?

Proov Confirm PdG tests do require first morning urine after at least a 6 hour hold. Using anything other than first morning urine with Proov Confirm PdG tests will cause inaccurate results. Proov Predict LH tests, on the other hand, can be used with urine collected at any time of day. Our protocol suggests using LH tests twice per day as you approach your day of suspected ovulation, and many women find it convenient to test morning and evening during those days. 

If my PdG results show “weak” ovulation (or low PdG), what can I do?

There are many options for raising PdG levels — often we find the fix can be simple! While we always recommend consulting your doctor to determine the best next steps, you can find suggestions based only on your individual PdG results in the Improovments section of the Proov Insight app.

If I have an LH surge, can I be sure I ovulated as expected?

LH tests are often called “ovulation tests,” but contrary to their name, they do not confirm whether or not you’ve ovulated; they only detect the luteinizing hormone surge that typically precedes ovulation. But the Proov Predict & Confirm kit comes with Proov Confirm PdG tests so you can confirm whether or not ovulation was successful enough for the best possible chance at conception.

Should I save my tests after I read the results?

No, please do not save your PdG or LH tests after you read the results. So simply dip your strip, scan the test in the Proov Insight app, and throw it away!

Do I have to download the Proov Insight app to use Predict & Confirm?

While it is possible to read both Proov LH and PdG tests by eye, per the instructions included with the kit, we strongly recommend using the Proov Insight app to take your hormone knowledge one step further by converting your results into numerical data. Plus the app provides details on what your results mean and action plans to help you meet your goals!

Can I use my Proov results to understand my fertility status?

No, Proov only provides a snapshot of where you are in your cycle and does not provide a reflection of your fertility status. If you have questions about your results, you should consult your physician.

When do I use Proov Confirm?

We strongly recommend using the free Proov Insight app to guide your testing. Once you upload some basic cycle information, it will give you specific daily instructions on when to test and just makes life easier! 

Here’s an overview to help you know what to expect: You’ll use Proov Confirm once at the beginning of your cycle to establish a baseline (see more about baselines below).

Then, you’ll track peak fertility using the method of your choice — we recommend LH tests like Proov Predict. Once you detect peak fertility, the patented Proov PdG testing protocol recommends testing PdG levels on days 7, 8, 9, and 10 past peak fertility (DPP) to confirm successful ovulation.

Do I need to use first morning urine for Proov Confirm?

Yes, Proov Confirm is most accurate with first morning urine. This is because your body breaks down progesterone into PdG while you sleep. Ideally, you’ll want to collect your urine first thing when you wake up after holding it for at least 6 hours. Using anything other than first morning urine can cause inaccurate results.

Should I save my PdG tests after I read the result?

No, please do not save your PdG test after you read the result. Our PdG tests are considered inaccurate before 5 or after 10 minutes of processing. So simply dip your strip, scan the test in the Proov Insight app, and throw it away!

Do I have to download the Proov Insight App to use Proov Confirm?

I have taken Proov PdG tests as directed and I am not getting positive results; does this mean I am having trouble ovulating?

Proov PdG tests do not replace medical advice. If you are not getting positive results, you should consult your physician and tell them about this information so they can properly diagnose you.

Can I use Proov Confirm to track PdG levels during pregnancy?

No — Proov Confirm was designed to help monitor ovulation to aid in conception. While progesterone remains high during pregnancy, Proov Confirm has not been clinically validated for use during pregnancy. If you are currently pregnant and concerned about your progesterone levels, we recommend consulting your doctor.

What is LH and why should I measure it?

Tracking LH (luteinizing hormone) levels during the first half of your cycle can help you detect an LH surge, which indicates you’ve reached your two most fertile days (also called “peak fertility”). This is the time to “try!”  During the first half of your cycle — the “follicular phase” — your follicles mature in preparation for ovulation. When the time is right, your brain sends a surge of LH to trigger the mature follicle to release an egg. Ovulation typically occurs about 12-48 hours after an LH surge.

When do I use Proov Predict?

We recommend testing for peak fertility using Proov Predict LH tests about 18 days before your next suspected period. So if your cycles are 28 days long, you’ll start testing with Proov Predict on cycle day 10 (don’t worry — the free Proov Insight app will do the math for you!). The Proov Insight app will prompt you to test twice per day — once in the morning and once in the evening — because LH surges can be short, so we want to ensure you don’t miss it.

Do I need to use first morning urine with Proov Predict?

No — you may use Proov Predict at any time of day. The Proov Insight app will prompt you to test two times per day during the LH testing phase. Many women find it convenient to test levels mid-morning and again later in the evening, but the choice is ultimately yours. 

If I have an LH surge, can I be sure I ovulated as expected?

LH tests are often called “ovulation tests,” but contrary to their name, they do not confirm whether or not you’ve ovulated; they only detect the luteinizing hormone surge that typically precedes ovulation. For more insight into your overall ovulation quality, we recommend checking out Proov Confirm. Proov Confirm PdG tests measure the urine marker of progesterone, the hormone released after ovulation to confirm whether or not ovulation was successful (which allows for the best possible chance at conception).

Should I save my LH tests after I read the result?

No, please do not save your LH test after you read the result. Simply dip your strip, scan the test in the Proov Insight app, and throw it away!

Can I use my Proov LH test results to understand my overall fertility status?

No, Proov Predict only provides a snapshot of where you are in your cycle and does not provide a reflection of your overall fertility status. If you have questions about your fertility, consult your physician.

What is FSH and why should I measure it?

Tracking follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) levels over time can give you insight into your ovarian reserve (your remaining egg supply) if you are trying to conceive. FSH levels increase temporarily at the beginning of each cycle to stimulate your ovaries to produce eggs. When your ovarian reserve is lower, more FSH is required to stimulate them. By providing insight into ovarian reserve, testing FSH can help you make a plan and get set up for success. 

What is my ovarian reserve and why should I care about it?

A woman is born with all her eggs and does not produce more over her lifetime. Your ovarian reserve refers to how many eggs your ovaries have remaining. Understanding your ovarian reserve can help you have more informed conversations with your doctor and get further assessment, if necessary.

Why does a high FSH level correlate with lower ovarian reserve?

FSH is your body’s signal that stimulates the ovaries to produce eggs, so levels typically increase a little early in your cycle. When your ovarian reserve is low, it takes a stronger FSH signal to stimulate your ovaries to produce eggs. This means that if you have a lower ovarian reserve, your body produces more FSH at the beginning of your cycle, and testing reveals higher levels of the hormone in your system. 

When do I use Proov FSH tests?

The Proov Insight app, and instructions included with the tests, will prompt you to test FSH levels on cycle days 5, 7, and 9. Like all hormones, FSH levels have been shown to fluctuate so it’s important to get three separate results to best understand your levels over time. Additionally, FSH levels can also vary cycle-to-cycle which is why we recommend testing for multiple cycles in order to get the most complete picture.

I got a high FSH reading. Does this mean I have low ovarian reserve?

A single FSH reading — whether it be high or low — is considered non-diagnostic, since studies show that FSH levels can fluctuate. This is why we recommend testing FSH levels 3 times during your cycle (days 5, 7, and 9) and retesting your levels for at least a few cycles to get the best idea of your levels over time. 

What should I do if I get 2 or more high FSH test results?

If you get 2 or more high FSH test results, this may indicate low ovarian reserve could be impacting your chances at conception. In this case, we recommend following up with your doctor.

Do I need to use first morning urine with Proov FSH tests?

Yes, please test FSH levels using first morning urine for the most accurate results. First morning urine should be collected first thing when you wake up after at least a 6 hour hold.

Should I save my tests after I read the results?

No, please do not save your FSH tests after you read the results. So simply dip your strip, scan the test in the Proov Insight app, and throw it away!

Do I have to download the Proov Insight app to use Proov FSH tests?

While it is possible to read Proov FSH tests by eye, per the instructions included with the kit, we strongly recommend using the Proov Insight app to take your hormone knowledge one step further by converting your results into numerical data. Plus the app provides details on what your results mean and action plans to help you meet your goals!

I have taken Proov FSH tests as directed and am getting results in a normal range; does this mean I have a normal ovarian reserve?

Proov FSH tests do not replace medical advice. If you’re getting test results in the normal range and are still having trouble trying to conceive, we recommend consulting your physician.
