Fertile-Focus Fertility Facts
To increase your chances of becoming pregnant, pinpointing your most fertile time in your cycle is key. With Fertile-Focus ovulation microscope, a woman can learn to identify the days when she will most likely ovulate - the best time to conceive a baby.
Focusing on Fertility
For too many trying-to-conceive couples, the path to becoming pregnant is filled
with delays and complications. Why? Typically, a woman is fertile for a mere
handful of days during each menstrual cycle. And because the unfertilized
egg has a short life-span of just 24 hours, timing intercourse is central
to successful conception. For many couples, 'guesswork' is not enough when
it comes to timing, and learning to predict ovulation helps us understand
our own unique fertility patterns and anticipate our 'prime time' for conception.
The Menstrual Cycle and Fertility
During your menstrual cycle, there are far more infertile days than fertile
days. And within this short fertile period - the window of opportunity for
conception - there is just a day or two of "peak fertility". Identifying
this peak time, and planning accordingly, can help maximize your chances
of becoming pregnant.
Fertility and Conception: Timing is Everything!
A woman's fertile period during her menstrual cycle, on average, lasts about
5 days. The most fertile period consists of the days before and during ovulation.
There are a number of reasons why this is the most fertile time: the amount
of cervical fluid increases, body temperature begins to rise to create a
warmer, more hospitable environment for a fertilized egg, and the cervix
will start to rise and begin to open up. Given a fertile environment, sperm
can live a handful of days. The egg, however, can live only 24 hours - so
timing is everything!
Estrogen, Ovulation, and Saliva Patterns
During ovulation, a number of different hormonal changes take place. Within
the ovaries, follicles house each individual, developing egg. Follicle Stimulating
Hormone enables your ovaries to nurture eggs - and the follicle secretes
estrogen to support fertility. Estrogen helps the uterine lining thicken
and expand, and increases blood flow to the uterus. Immediately before ovulation,
the follicle begins secreting a great deal of estrogen. It is the increase
of estrogen in a woman's system that produces changes in saliva patterns
- allowing women to predict ovulation by observing and tracking these changes.
Ovulation Prediction and Saliva Fertility Monitors (Ovulation Microscopes)
The Fertile-Focus ovulation microscope is designed so you can easily, accurately,
and confidently observe changes in saliva composition due to increases in
estrogen hormone levels. Fertile-Focus works by allowing you to see the changes
in the make up of your saliva just prior to ovulation - and the "ferning
pattern" (or frosty/crystal appearance) indicating a positive result
will begin to appear about three days before ovulation, whether your cycle
is regular or irregular.
Fertile-Focus Research
All-natural, hygienic, and effortless to use, Fertile-Focus is also backed by research. For women who are trying to conceive, Fertile-Focus is 98% accurate in aiding the prediction of fertile periods. The accuracy claim is based on testing methodology (research on the saliva microscope testing method of ovulation prediction).

Abstract
The Authors performed the saliva test on nº328 women using the Saliva
Tester. In nº48 cases the test results revealed a fern-like crystallized
structures as illustrated in "Figure 3"below. In nº20 cases
they performed a Transvaginal Ultrasonography (T.V.U.S.). In nº16 cases
(80%) they found an ovarian follicle greater than 2 cm.To know the days of
their menstrual cycle when fecundation is possible has always been a demand
felt by women and this both in the case when they want to avoid it (1). Many
methodologies exist that enable us to verify or not the presence of a mature
ovarian follicle or its happened explosion. A very simple methodology was reached
with observation and testing of the Saliva Tester; results that may be easily
and directly realized by any woman, at any moment of the day, anywhere. The
prospective advantages that descend as to the knowledge of the useful days
for a fecundation are such that they led us to directly and correctly try this
new test.
Material and Method
It has been considered the use of a mini-microscope,
or "Saliva Fertility
Tester", made up of a small cylindrical body or eyepiece where we note
an optical part with an opposite small slide where a sample of saliva is placed.
As soon as the sample of saliva has dried, the small eyepiece body is put into
a cylindrical container, that leads down to a lighting system. By focusing
the lens, a fern-like characteristic crystallization is pointed out, in a very
near correlation with the ovulation period (Figure 3). Out of the fertile days
there are no fern-like crystallization structures seen, as pictures named "Figure
1" (during the non-fertile period) and "Figure 2" (during the
intermediate period) indicate. See image below.
We have taken into consideration 328 women between 15 and 50 years old, not using OCP who were placed under our observation at the out-patients' departments of the Institute of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the University "La Sapienza" in Rome. No selective principle has been adopted. We have only invited the patient to leave a sample of saliva on the slide of the mini-microscope, and afterwards age, day of the cycle in which the patient was and length of her cycle were noted. 48 women, whose sample of saliva gave the fern-like characteristically stratification were invited to undergo an ultrasonography with transvaginal sound for the control of the ovarium and of the presence or not of the pertinent follicle. 20 women accepted our request, 28 women refused.
Results
Results are reported by Tables 1,2 and 3. In Table 1 we see nº48 women
of nº328 who, as far as anamnesis is concerned, are in the ovulation period;
nº40 of these women gave us the picture "Figure 3" type after
test, nº40 gave us the picture "Figure 2" and nº248 the
picture "Figure 1" type (Table 2). At the anamnesis, nº 36 women
were in the intermediate period; in all 36 cases of this group, we have noted
a picture "Figure 2" type. At the anamnesis, nº 244 women were
in the non-fertile period and we have noted a picture "Figure 1" type
in all the 244 cases. In the Table 3, are pointed out the nº20 cases who,
at the saliva test, showed a picture "Figure 3" type and have accepted
to undergo sonographic control by means of transvaginal sound.

Conclusions
The Saliva Fertility Tester can be used to determine the
fertile period: the fertile cycle will be identified with a continuous use,
cycle after cycle. The Tester will also allow, by repeating every month the
tests, to obtain some significant indications about the monthly cycle behavior
and the hormonal situation of the woman. The Fertility Tester can be used to
avoid an undesired pregnancy: the comparison of the figures given in Tables1
and 2 indicate the following: at the anamnesis n° 244 women were in the non-fertile period and we have
noted a picture "Figure 1" type. In all 244 cases at the anamnesis
n° 36 women were in the intermediate period; in all 36 cases of this group,
we have noted a picture "Figure 2" type. In both cases we had a perfect
coincidence between supposed fertile or infertile days of the cycle and tests
executed with "The Saliva Fertility Tester". At the anamnesis 48
women were in the fertile period; in 40 of them we have noted a picture "Figure
3" type. Such difference is due to the fact that 4 of them had a meal
one hour before testing, thus invalidating the result, and the other 4 may
have not correctly performed the test. Therefore, even if we assume that all
these 8 women were in fact fertile (very unlikely), the final result of such
test is that ONLY 8 women out a panel of 328, i.e. less than 3%, resulted in
false negative (in fact fertile) at the saliva testing.

Completely Satisfied!
I have been using Fertile-Focus every day and I find it very easy to read.
I use it every morning, first thing, so I can compare my saliva and notice
the change in pattern when I ovulate. I am over 41, have 2 kids and am a
newlywed and anxious to give my husband his first child. My biological clock
is ticking so I don't have time to waste. That's why I tried the Fertile-Focus
and am very satisfied with how easy it is to detect ovulation. Now I'm just
waiting and keeping my fingers crossed!
- Kimberly, over 41 from PA
You will know when you see it!
I was kind of skeptical at first. I never saw much the first few days I used
the Fertile-Focus! However, I can attest that it DOES WORK LIKE IT SAYS!
Today I tested and it was diffinetely a "fern pattern"! I am highly
impressed with this little predictor! I have a 2 1/2 year old and am 42 years
old. I need all the help I can get to have another child ASAP! I Would recommend
the Fertile-Focus to anyone needing to predict their ovulation! AAAA++++
product!

Fertile Focus Saliva Ovulation Test
What I found by using this product was that my ovulation cycle was off
from the "norm" by a week.. I was ovulating a week earlier than most
people. After tracting this every morning--which was better than doing the
tIp thing--I figured it out.. So the day before my appointment with the Fertility
Doctor I found out I was already pregnant. The set up is a little used to
getting used to but after you get the hang of it.. it is a snap! Thanks!!
I will be expecting in December!
- T.B.

IT WORKED GREAT
I was trying to get pregnant with my second child. After a few months of trying
we decided to try the Fertile Focus. It was easy to read and I tested everyday.
I am now pregnant and after the first month I used it! Wow! Inexpensive and
it worked. 5 stars!
- Kathy, mother 1 1/2 from Dallas Metroplex, Texas
Great Product
I found this product easy and fun to use. It was very obvious when I was "ferning".
I am now 4 weeks pregnant. It worked on the first try!
- Alicia, future mommy
from York, PA
Totally Excited!!!
I, like another customer reviewed this product and bought it a few days after
my period. I was not expecting to ovulate so soon. It was showing the fern
pattern 4 days before I expected it to. I have been ttc for one month now
and will be greatly overjoyed if this product has worked in this short of
time. I love it b/c it is soo easy to use if you follow the instructions.
The best time to test is in the morning before you eat or drink anything
like it says. Good luck to everyone else out there ttc!!!!
- Excited and
new at ttc!!
Great Buy!
I purchased this at the beginning of my cycle and am now 5 weeks pregnant!
This product was easy to use. I was able to chart my fertility with the chart
included, and found that I ovulate around day 10 in a 28 day cycle. Never
would have known this without this inexpensive product. I found it easy to
read and clearly saw the ferning at ovulation. Highly recommend! Became pregnant
within the first cycle used!
