When women have a period the oestrogen levels are low however looking at the Maybebaby its indicating they are high and the fern is appearing. Could this to do with lunar cycles. I have read that you can fall pregnant at any time of the month. I am a bit confused. rang up the product team and they did not know. For those out there not sure what a Maybebaby is - its a mini microscope that tests saliva to asertain whether the women is ovalating and the best time to have intercourse. dots and pebbles is non fertile time, wispy ferns and dots is coming into ovalation and ferns is high levels of oestrogen and ovalating.
My Maybebaby tells me how high oestrogen levels are through a fern like pattern when testing saliva?
Hi,
You can only get pregnant during a 12-24 hours period each month. This is the time you ovulate. Ovulation occurs around the middle of your cycle. Once released your egg remains viable for fertilisation for just 12-24 hours.
It is not recommended that you use saliva microscope tests in iscolation from your body's other fertility signs. A good way of cross checking your maybebaby results is to take your temperaure every morning when you wake up. It will rise slightly when you ovulate and will remain slightly higher until your next period. You can also keep an eye on your mucus. It will become stretchy like egg white as you approach ovulation. Sperm can survive for a max. of 5 days in this most fertile type of mucus.
Lunar cycles can effect fertility, but on in the modern western world! Many women in Africa find that there cycles follow a lunar pattern. In our societies however we have far too much artificial light for your cycles to be effected.
You can chart your cycles on line with FertilityFreind.com. The Couple to Couple League also have a great home study course which I took and can highly recommend. If you are married then the charity LIFE UK runs a fertility awareness programme which would be open to you.
