i-sure to help detect ovulation
Piramal Healthcare has launched an ovulation detection kit that could help couples that are trying to conceive. A woman’s chances of getting pregnant are highest on only two days of the month—the time when she ovulates. Based on physical signs there is no way to tell with certainty when ovulation happens. The i-sure strip can detect with about 99 per cent accuracy the two days when chances on conceiving are highest. 12 – 24 hours before ovulation occurs, the hormone LH [leutinizing hormone] is released. The i-sure strip detects the presence of this hormone in urine, which helps a woman know if she will ovulate within 12 – 24 hours. i-sure proposes to be a solution for one of the major concerns of delayed pregnancy arising out of changing lifestyles, couples not getting enough time with each other and hectic work schedules causing them to miss the two days of ovulation.
