Should I only have sex around the time OvuSense has
told me I am ovulating?
The OvuSense Reader provides a prediction of the start of the
fertile window five days before the predicted date of ovulation.
You should have sex as often as possible during this time, with
a particular emphasis on having sex prior to the predicted date
of ovulation because this is when you are at your most fertile.
Nonetheless, you should be aiming to have sexual intercourse
every 2-3 days throughout the cycle because that improves the
quantity and quality of sperm.
Can I give OvuSense to a friend?
The Sensor is for your personal use. Sharing it with other
women may present a hygiene risk, and will invalidate your
personal data. The OvuSense Reader can also only be used by a
single user and with a single Sensor at any one time.
Can OvuSense help me if I have recently ceased
contraception?
It takes the female body a varying amount of time to re-
establish a normal hormone balance after you stop hormonal
methods of contraception or have an IUD removed. The
length of time it takes depends on the type of contraceptive
and your individual body. As the hormone patterns start to
normalize, regular menstruation will return and eventually
so will ovulation. However, this may take up to 9 months
with hormonal methods. During this time, OvuSense may be
able to help by showing you whether you are ovulating, but
the fertile window prediction may be of less use, as the cycle
length and ovulation timing is likely to vary greatly, especially
in the first three cycles.
