Different Types of Fertility, Ovulation, And
Pregnancy Tests

Every woman goes through different types of
hormonal changes throughout her life. As per the
Gynecologists, from childhood to first menstrual
to conception to childbirth to menopause,
sometimes even after menopause, women have
generally undergone different phases of hormonal
changes.

Fertility Tests
It is possible that a woman can be curious about
her fertility or might be trying to conceive but
won't be getting any success. These tests are
often the first step in fertility
treatment. Gynecologists can perform simpler
fertility tests while a reproductive
endocrinologist can perform thorough fertility
testing. There are many fertility tests available
today, not every fertility test will be
undertaken for every case. The more invasive
fertility tests, like diagnostic laparoscopy,
will only be done when symptoms or other tests
point in that direction, or when a cause for
infertility cannot be found otherwise.

Ovulation Tests
The final stage of egg maturation is called
ovulation. The egg exits the ovary and enters the
fallopian tube. Throughout this, the egg needs to
be fertilized by sperm for conception, and
eventually pregnancy. In the normal menstrual
cycle, there are only 1-2 days in which
conception is possible. Usually, the sperm
survives for only 48 hours inside the female
reproductive system, so it must meet the egg
during this time.

Pregnancy Tests
The pregnancy tests can be done from home as well
as in a medical institution. A home pregnancy
test (HPT) is used on the first day of periods
being missed. Some tests are more sensitive and
can be undertaken earlier. It may also differ
if you have used birth control pills for a while.
The home pregnancy tests can give false pregnancy
alarms like showing a positive when you actually
aren't. So, in any case, a checkup from the
doctor is a must.
