Neither basal temperatures nor the "ovulation predictor kits" assure ovulation. It is possible to go through all the hormonal changes of ovulation without releasing the egg - ovulating. For more information, I invite you to read our web page, <www.texasfertility.com>. Good luck.

From a testing perspective, the only way to document ovulation is to see a pre-ovulatory size follicle on an ovary, using ultrasound, and see it disappear about 48 hours later. Of cource the original proof of ovulation was pregnancy. No hormone studies will assure ovulation. Good luck.
