When trying for a baby, many women nowadays will try and speed things along to become pregnant as quickly as possible. Although there is no foolproof way to become pregnant quicker, there are things that a women can do to maximise her chances.

One sure fire way of helping yourself to get pregnant quicker is by using an ovulation test. This type of home testing kit will allow you to predict the best time to have sex, thus maximising the chances of successfully getting pregnant quicker.

When it comes to Ovulation Tests, they are not all of the same. When you look in your local supermarket, pharmacy or on eBay, you will see Ovulation Tests. Some are better than others. Some are great, some are rubbish. How do you decide which one is the best for you?

Zoom Baby have been selling Ovulation Tests online for over 10 years. Many women have come to trust Zoom Baby and we have successfully helped countless numbers of couples to become pregnant over the years. Often more than once!

Why Timing Matters: The Science Behind Ovulation Tests

Ever wondered why pinpointing ovulation is so crucial? Let’s dive in. Your body’s fertile window is surprisingly short – just 24 to 36 hours when that egg is ripe for fertilisation. But here’s the kicker: sperm can hang around for up to 5 days, waiting for their golden opportunity. That’s why timing is everything.

Zoom Baby’s ovulation tests tap into this biological clock by detecting the surge of luteinising hormone (LH) that triggers ovulation. According to NHS guidance on trying for a baby, understanding your menstrual cycle and when ovulation occurs can significantly improve your chances of conception. It’s like nature’s starting gun for your baby-making race. By catching this LH surge, you’re giving yourself the best shot at pregnancy.

But it’s not just about getting pregnant faster. Knowing your cycle intimately has other perks too. It can help flag potential fertility issues early on, guide lifestyle choices, and even boost your overall health awareness. Plus, there’s something empowering about really understanding your body’s rhythms.

So when you’re peeing on that Zoom Baby stick, remember – you’re not just testing, you’re taking charge of your fertility journey. Pretty cool, right?

So why should you choose Zoom Baby Ovulation Tests rather than any of the other brands in the market? We have put together 10 reasons why women prefer Zoom Baby Ovulation Tests. Read on…

1. Zoom Baby Ovulation Tests Are Reliable

3. Zoom Baby Wider Ovulation Tests Are Easier to Read

Our popular ovulation Test strips are 3.5mm wide. This is the optimum width when testing for ovulation as it makes the results of your test easier to read and interpret. Many cheap ovulation tests are only 2.5mm wide, sometimes even less than that! This makes them cheaper to produce but less reliable to use and understand.

Our regular ovulation test detects LH in urine at a level of 30 miU/ml. For many women this is the perfect test and is the test we suggest most women start with.

We also offer and extra-sensitive ovulation test which detects LH at the lower level of 20 miU/ml. This test is often useful for women who have irregular periods or other complications that affect their monthly cycle. The NICE guidelines on fertility assessment recommend that women track their ovulation patterns, particularly when cycles are irregular.

What Customers Say

“We had been trying for our second child for 10 months. I had never tried Ovulation Kits before I came across Zoom Baby. The very first time we tried wham bang We’re pregnant!! I wish I had tried them earlier, it would have saved all the months of waiting. BIG TIP – Read every bit of the instruction leaflet!!!”

— E.G., Verified Customer

“I used these ovulation tests in 2009 and conceived the first month of trying, confirmed by the free pregnancy test that came with it. I couldn’t believe the pregnancy test could be accurate as they look so flimsy compared to the expensive ones you buy in the shop – so I bought a ‘proper’ one which only confirmed what the free test had told me. We would like to try for another baby so have ordered the same tests again from Zoom.”

— Laura R, Verified Customer

“Thanks so much for the ovulation kits – after just one month of using them I’m now pregnant!! I took 3 out of the 4 pregnancy tests I got from you as I couldn’t believe my eyes!! Would highly recommend these tests, they work!!”
