What are ovulation tests and how do they help me get pregnant?

Ovulation tests are diagnostic tests that detect, in urine, the change of a specific hormone called LH (luteinizing hormone). Shortly before ovulation, the female body releases a large amount of LH, resulting in ovulation within the next 24–36 hours from the moment the test shows a positive result. Taking into account that the egg can be fertilized for at least 12 hours while it is already in the fallopian tube, we have a total fertile window of 48 hours during which the couple should have intercourse in order to maximize the chances of pregnancy (intercourse plan).
