1-888-WASH-IVF

For couples with an ovulation factor, no significant semen abnormalities undergoing treatment with ovulation induction, your doctor may recommend timed intercourse. The timing will be based upon an indication of ovulation using an LH predictor kit (LHPK). We would encourage intercourse the day the LHPK is positive and the following day.

You will be told when to start using the LHPK.

If you do not get a period within 16 days after your surge or if your period is unusual in any way, you should contact the office for a pregnancy test.
