| Fertile-Focus Saliva Ovulation Test by Fairhaven Health (1 unit)Regular price: $34.95 Sale price: $27.95 |
 With Fertile Focus, you can identify your ovulation date - your peak fertile time - by tracking your estrogen levels throughout your cycle. Fertile Focus allows you to easily view characteristic changes that occur in your saliva just prior to ovulation. When you see the crystal "ferning patterns", you know you are fertile. Endorsed by noted fertility expert, Amos Grunebaum, MD.
With Fertile-Focus,
predict fertility by viewing the visual changes that take place in your saliva
throughout your cycle. Just prior to ovulation, women experience an "estrogen
surge". Fertile-Focus allows you to observe the fern-like patterns that
are present in your saliva due to this increase in estrogen. The crystal patterns,
or "ferning", can be easily identified
through the 50X magnification of the glass Fertile-Focus lens - helping you
predict ovulation as much as 72 hours in advance.
To use Fertile
Focus, simply place a dab of fresh saliva on the lens window. Allow saliva to
dry and press an LED light button to illuminate the sample. View through the
lens to determine if you are "not fertile", "transitional"
or "fertile"!
With
the Fertile-Focus saliva ovulation
test, you receive:
- Quality:
A sturdy metal body & quality glass lens means reliability and long life.
- Clarity:
A powerful 50X magnification glass lens for accuracy and ease-of-use.
- Discretion:
Fertile-Focus looks like an attractive lipstick case.
- Convenience:
Test anytime and anywhere. Results in just five minutes.
- Affordability:
Other brands of saliva fertility tests offer lesser quality at twice the cost.
A customer favorite, Fertile
Focus is backed by a warranty against defect and is endorsed by WebMD's fertility
expert, Amos Grunebaum, MD.

Overall Rating for Fertile-Focus Saliva Ovulation Test  | (based on 69 reviews) |  |
So far so goodBy Brooke from NC on January 5, 2012 Ive only used this for a little over a week, and so far it seems pretty easy to use, so we will see. This is easier to use for me than the LH urine strips. I have yet to see the "ferning," but as I said it is still early in the game. The real test will be to see if I can tell the ferning pattern.Pros:Cheaper than a ton of LH strips, small (lipstick sized)Cons:If you have bad vision, dont even bother with this thing! It is a small visual opening, and the non-fertile days (for me anyway) dont look like the example.I would recommend this item to a friend.Shows promiseBy New2TTC from Boston, MA on December 6, 2011 I began using this item along with the ovulation strips. When the strips said I was ovulating, I was able to detect the ferning pattern as the producct specified. No baby on the way yet, but hopefully soon. Tricky to learn to use at first, as you need to use just saliva, don't touch your cheeks or anything otherwise you end up with cells in the microscope viewing which can make the ferning hard to tell. That and it's almost as if you need to view looking up or down in the scope and not straight on to see the ferning.Pros:Not bad once I got the hanf of itCons:I think the watching the video on how to use confused me because it looks like she's touching inside her mouth somewhere, and you need basically just spit.I would recommend this item to a friend.Great deal By Margo from Washington on November 23, 2011 This item is simple to use and read the results. Best of all, it is reusable, which means that if it takes more than a couple of cycles to conceive, you could save a ton of money compared to LH tests. It is also fun to share it with your partner. Enjoy!Pros:Easy to use and read. Overall cheaper than LH tests. Easy to share the results with your partner.Cons:Initial cost. I would recommend this item to a friend.Good productBy Ann from Fargo, ND on September 21, 2011 It's very easy to use and the saliva pattern was clear and easy to identify through the lense. I didn't use the test early enough in my cycle so the first morning when I used it, I saw a clear crystal pattern. The next morning, the crystal pattern was still there but the density was not as high, and the day later, there was no crystal pattern at all. This is the first month I use this test and so far, the experience has been very good. Pros:Easy to use. Nice looking kit, like a lipstick. Cons:Nothing yet.I would recommend this item to a friend.Unsure of the efficiencyBy Antoniya Peeva from FL on September 17, 2011 I purchased this microscope as a second testing devise and to be able to compare the results between the Fertile-Focus and Clearblue ovulation test. I have been using both for a month now. While I find it interesting to monitor the hormones in the saliva on the other side of the lens, I am not able to "read" it correctly, I believe, because for the entire month I did not notice anything similar to the image of the hormones in the instruction pamphlet. Meanwhile Clearblue showed the exact two days of "High" and two days of "Peak" ovulation. I am rating the Fertile-Focus with three start for that reason and because I have not used it long enough.Pros:Perfect concept, shape, weight - not a burden traveling with it; can be carried around and used discretely without drawing any attention
Serves a great purpose
Permanent article - unlike the disposable sticks, no refills, no need of purchasing additional resources
Easy to maintain and clean which makes it possible to be used by multiple consumers
Long lasting, no expiry dateCons:Hard to read accurately the "visuals", compared to the image from the instructions.
More example images must be included in the pamphlet.
Seems fragile.
Light does not always stay steady, but blinking and dimming occasionally. It does not seem to be replaceable and in the instructions I did not see anything about battery life and/or replacement.I would recommend this item to a friend.Good Useful ProductBy Diana from Charlotte, NC on August 29, 2011 I have used the product this month along with the urine ovulation tests and this is what I have noticed...
I got a positive from the urine tests on days 15 and 16, but no ferning pattern. I continued to test the saliva and got a perfect ferning (fertile) pattern on day 18. No trace of ferning on day 19, so I actually think that in my case, ferning only showed on the day of ovulation or after it had just occured. This is still a useful product and I hope to have gotten pregnant after 1 and 1/2 years of trying...Pros:interesting microscope shows ferning pattern
easy to useCons:it only showed up for me on the day of ovulation & did not notice any transition periodI would recommend this item to a friend.Easy to use - hopefully effectiveBy Jessie G from Louisville KY on August 21, 2011 This test is easy to use but so far I've only seen tiny little spots - not even as many shown in the example for non-fertile days. I'm hoping I see some more lines and ferning soon!I would recommend this item to a friend.Great product!By Alissa from Chehalis, WA on August 20, 2011 This is a great way to track your ovulation. It's reusable, unlike test strips, and it's portable. Some women said that the light was too bright. If you don't look into it for more than 5 or 10 seconds at a time it's fine. It's not meant to be stared into for long periods. The one thing to look out for is lack of saliva. At first I was using too little. My cycle is normally pretty spot on so when one morning the Fertile-Focus said I was infertile I decided to test again. I used quite a bit more saliva and it then said I was in transition. Well, it worked! I am now 9 wks pregnant!Pros:Ease of use, reusability, portability. Cons:I think it may need a bit clearer directions. I had to do some extra research to make sure I was using it correctly.I would recommend this item to a friend.Easy but confusingBy Wendy from Illinois on June 17, 2011 At first I wasn't sure if I was using the test correctly. I did start to follow a few suggestions and let my saliva dry longer. Once I was able to see ferning I knew I was using it right but the first few days were frustrating not knowing.I would recommend this item to a friend.Does what it says!!By Amber from Anniston, Alabama on June 16, 2011 I just got my Fertile-Focus. Used it for two days. First day showed transition stage, but today definite "ferning". I thought that I missed my fertile time. Glad to know that I didn't. Hope to see a BFP very soon!!Pros:Reusuable!!!
Easy to use
98% Accuracy!Cons:Nothing yet!!I would recommend this item to a friend.Great product!By Laura from Montreal, Quebec on May 8, 2011 I really liked the Fertile-Focus. I found it very easy to use and very useful and helpful. Before buying it, I read many reviews and watched the instructional video. Upon receiving the product, I read carefully the instructions sheet. Therefore, I had absolutely no problem in reading the results, which are, in fact, very easy to read! I loved it and highly recommend it! It was the perfect addition to my BBT and cervical mucous tracking.
NOTE: I put on the saliva sample first thing when I wake up and "forget about it" so it can dry well. Sometimes I read the results when I get home in the afternoon!Pros:Easy to use and to read the results
Helpful in pinpointing fertile time
Reusable
AfforadableCons:So far, nothing!I would recommend this item to a friend.works greatBy Tammy from Valley Springs, CA 95252 on April 28, 2011 I love this thing! Works greatI would recommend this item to a friend.Ok, but in retrospect, should've just bought a kids' scientific microscope.By Sari from Ohio on April 27, 2011 This product is so-so. The surface area for viewing saliva is small and if you don't smear your sample *just right*, it can be out of effective range for viewing.
After using my scope for a few months, the eye piece is getting loose (it has plastic threads that you twist to focus) because the threads are wearing out. I am having a hard time getting it into focus now. The light is also getting more dim. Once the light is out, then it's time for the trash-no visible way to replace the battery/bulb.
I wish I would've just gone and bought a kids' lighted microscope. The price is similar & the viewing area would have been larger and I could've kept a sampling of past slides for comparison. Also I think the focus would be more precise and the zoom would have been greater.
Pros:Doesn't take up a lot of space.Cons:The threads wear out quickly, light becomes dim after a few months. Viewing area is tiny. Could have bought a microscope with better focus for just a few dollars more. Great Product By leslie from Montrose Colorado on April 25, 2011 easy to use but make sure you follow the instructions and only take your sample 1st thing in the morning before you brush,drink or ANYTHING... Has not help me get pregnant YET but with being able to take it every morning and to reuse it this will sure help.Pros:Reusable, Convenient Cons:not to much instruction on transitional furning
pictures do help but not to much when you obsess like me. I would recommend this item to a friend.saw ferningBy tryinginTO from Toronto, Ontario on April 20, 2011 So I bought this a few weeks ago and got it past my supposed ovulation date so I didn't expect to see any ferning for awhile. I am now at day 8 of my new cycle and I just finally saw some ferning! I think it's the transitional phase , but I got the ferning earlier than I expected which may mean I am ovulating before I thought I was. This product therefore is really helpful if it accurately provides this info. I would like to keep using it and see what it shows in the next few days, and I am going to try the ovulation strips sold here too to see if the info matches, but so far, I have no reason to think this product doesn't work, seems to work as advertised!I would recommend this item to a friend.Fairly easy to useBy Gail from MN on April 16, 2011 I have had Fertile Focus for about 3 weeks now and have used it several times. I am 38, almost 39 years old and my periods have always been very irregular, but I have seen a positive reading and transitional readings within this time. I did get some OPK test strips so that I could compare the two and verify what a positive reading on the saliva test really is. I think it will be great when I can be more sure of myself when reading the results on this. (And, since I am also taking Fertilaid and Fertile CM to get my hormones more in balance, I should be able to see it easier in future months!)Pros:It's inexpensive and easy to use.
The ferning, or crystals, are easy to see.Cons:I bought the test strips to make sure I am reading it right, so it did cost a little extra to use, but should be worth it in future months.I would recommend this item to a friend.NEAT! By LaShena M. Griffin - Trapp from Ohio on April 6, 2011 I ordered Fertile-Focus on 3/25/11 and received it on 3/28/11 FAST!! I ordered this product because I thought buying the OPK sticks you have to pee on would get very expensive every month. With Fertile-Focus it is re-useable I liked that. I started using it right away and have seen the changes, very neat and interesting, does exactly what is says, you must let the saliva dry completely because if you don't you will not get a good result reading. I love it! April 2011 is my first full month using it and I have seen very clear results in the changing...the pass couple days I can see that I am becoming fertile just as the instructions describe ... today I know I am in my most fertile day and the Fertile Focus confirms this ( will post picture) I am VERY happy with this product and hoping for my BFP soon!Pros:Everything!!Cons:NothingI would recommend this item to a friend.WorksBy Natasha from Canada on March 31, 2011 I have only just tried using this item. I like it because you can test as often as you like. Took a while to get the hang of what to look for and how much saliva too use. On day 13 I saw definite ferning.I would recommend this item to a friend.BFP!!!By Kayla from Kentuky on March 23, 2011 I dont really know if this product worked in itself because I also used the Fertile CM, Primrose Oil and the Pre-Seed lubricant. I tracked my ovualtion with this saliva-tester thing here (totally awesome) and altogether I got my BFP today! This was the first month we've tried so I am leaning towards the combination being the key reason behind it!Pros:Easily hidden
Easy to UseCons:Hard to see at firstI would recommend this item to a friend.I can see the Ferning!By Amy from Baden, Pa on March 13, 2011 My husband and I have been TTC for 2 years. We are seeing an RE and doing IUI's at the moment. I bought this product to help me locate my fertile days. I do see a definate change and the ferning pattern is beautiful. No BFP yet, but I hope to have one soon.Pros:Very easy to useI would recommend this item to a friend.It works!By Melissa from San Jose, CA on March 6, 2011 I was a bit skeptical about buying this, as other ovulation tests haven't worked for me. But this one worked! I got the ferning pattern exactly when I thought I would be ovulating. I would recommend this item to a friend.Clear to view and easy to use!By Samantha from vancouver, WA on February 25, 2011 I was able to easily see the ferning progression with first morning under the tongue saliva... It was perfect!Pros:ease of use
clarity
value
Cons:case slips off sometimesI would recommend this item to a friend.AwesomeBy foesofme from United states of America on February 7, 2011 I purchased this product, having some doubts on mind. But when I tried it for the first time, it is as easy and simple. I liked it. and I loved it. I recommend this to every woman who is planning to have baby. thank you fertile-focus !Pros:very easy to use, affordable priceCons:worried about the battery life.Love It!By amanda bannon from florida on January 15, 2011 a friend of mine who is TTC bought one and was saying how much she liked hers so i decided to order one since me and my husband have just started TTC #2. the first week i used it i saw nothing but air bubbles then i saw afew "ferns" then the whole thing was covered in the ferning pattern so it really works now i just have to wait 9 more day to see if i get my BFP! oh just make sure you let it dry long enough!Pros:It works! simple as thatCons:i dont have any cons im pleased with it.I would recommend this item to a friend.Works as describedBy K-T from NW, USA on January 9, 2011 I received mine just past ovulation, but the transitional ferning was clearly evident. IAs other commenters have noted, using a SMALL drop of saliva works best. I recommend no more than 1 mm wide droplet. I found a paperclip to be an idea way to transfer the saliva, as it doesn't absorb anything.
Even though i was past ovulation, I decided to continue to chart the rest of my cycle to see what it looked like. Five days later ferning appeared again and continued through when I was supposed to begin my next cycle. I am so excited to report that the mid stream tests are highly effective as well. I was able to confirm my pregnancy a day before my cycle was due to start! Thanks for all the great products!
My only complaint is that there is some not so discrete lettering on the outside of the case that clearly states exactly what it is. Otherwise it could be mistaken for a lipstick case.Pros:Easy to use.
Showed Pregnancy 5 days past ovulation.Cons:The directions could be clearer.
I would recommend this item to a friend.love itBy Ashley from Indiana on January 5, 2011 I just received mine in the mail today, I was dying to get it! Yesterday I thought that I was ovulating but was unsure as I am VERY irregular and haven't had any menstrual cycle in about 2 months but still feel as if I am ovulating... SURE ENOUGH TESTED TODAY AND FERTILE!!!!! It took me a couple tries to get the whole microscope to show fernning- I think the amount of saliva on the microscope makes the difference in my case I needed to use more. Hoping for a BFP SOON! Good luck to all of you out there!
Oh I found a baby wipe works very well to clean :)Pros:ease of use
multi use
small Cons:"Fertile Focus" written on outside.
not discrete in this manner...I would recommend this item to a friend.Didnt work for meBy Zee from Redwood City on December 16, 2010 I am using it since past 4 months and it always shows crystals and sometime a small ferning pattern on any one side of the glass which as per instruction means i am in transitional phase,my friend suggested this to me and for her it worked accurately but it didn't work AT ALL for me,complete waste of $30Pros:NothingCons:Hard to read.
Not accurateWorks wellBy Jody from Alberta on December 1, 2010 I like having this because I can test everyday and it does not cost any more. With the ovulation test strips every time I use one it costs money which is really annoying but with this I could test 3 times a day if I wanted to! Plus it is very easy to use. Also it looks like a tube of lipstick which makes it discrete, and I like that. Pros:easy to use
one time cost
discreteI would recommend this item to a friend.This could be your angel!By June2011 from San Francisco on December 1, 2010 I have only been using this for 7 days and that 7th day was my peak, and it worked. It pinpointed the best time to conceive. We only tried it 2x this month and now I'm at 10 weeks @35 and the OB calculated that I mostly conceived on that same 7th day. You need to be really keen and patience when viewing your saliva through the lens, the fern pattern does comes out but sometimes not prominent as how it was shown in the package and in the instruction maybe due to the concentration/quality of the saliva. I use my morning saliva right after a wake up.
I wish I had used this first instead of that expensive OV watch.Pros:The amazing changes in your saliva and the moment you were seeing the ferning patternCons:NoneI would recommend this item to a friend.nothing to focus onBy J Martin from Hermitage, PA on November 29, 2010 I tried this and used ovulation strips at the same time to know for certain when I was ovulating. The Fertile Focus Saliva microscope didn't show a thing except magnified dirt specs. Very disappointed. Will try again next month to see if anything shows but doubt it. Not worth it. Prefer to use their cheap ovulation strips.Pros:Nice idea to save on money long term but..Cons:Never worked
Bit time consuming waiting for saliva to completely dry.Mixed feelingsBy Anonymous from Oklahoma on November 29, 2010 The product works exactly as described and is easy to use, however I was also charting my CM and BBT and using OPKs. My ferning pattern did not correspond with the other signs on my chart so I'm not really sure about its accuracy since it is possible to have estrogen (ferning) spikes during your cycle that don't necessarily correspond with ovulation. I would suggest using this to supplement other ovulation predictors.Pros:Easy to use. Can use over and over again.Cons:Not totally reliable.I would recommend this item to a friend.works pretty wellBy Anna from Spokane Wa on November 24, 2010 this product is very self explanatory and easy to use. Love it much more than the pee sticks.Pros:easy to use
compact
comes with a chart to help track cycles and great instructionsCons:can be hard to focus at times.
have to make sure you follow direction or testing may be false.I would recommend this item to a friend.Great for several months of trying to conceive!!!By Mackenzie from Escondido, CA on November 18, 2010 I like the fertile-focus microscope. I spent over $30 on ovulation kits. I was testing almost everyday of the month. I was saddened when my husband and I did not become pregnant the first month. I decided to try the Fertile-Focus after extensive research. It was shipped to my home with in 3 days.
It took me a few days to find out exactly how much saliva i needed to put on the lens, and how long to wait before reading results. I find it easy to use. I was so excited to see the ferning pattern on cd14-16. I would recommend this product to other woment tracking their cycles and checking for ovulation frequently.
I recommend purchasers to watch the online video on how to use the Fertile-Focus.Pros:Reusable and easy to use. Cons:Directions are not 100% clear. Watching the video online helped me understand how to use the microscope.I would recommend this item to a friend.Great tool. Very inexpensive.By Tiffany from Loganville, GA on November 7, 2010 This is definitely a must have in your TTC journey. I used this my first month and got my BFP. I would recommend this item to a friend.Easy to useBy Sarah from Michigan on October 31, 2010 At first, I rushed through the instructions and didn't understand where to put my saliva. Once I realized I shouldn't put it on the outside of the lens or screw off the lens, I pulled the entire black lens portion out and put my saliva on the bottom of the glass there. Duh. Now that I've figured that out, it works great. It's a very inexpensive way of testing, and you can test as many times as you want. I am combining this information with daily OPKs. Together, I feel like I'm getting a lot of helpful information. I don't get good samples first thing in the morning, but later in the day works out great. My ferning patterns didn't look like the one example on the Early-Pregnancy-Test.com site, but I found some other helpful images at the web sites below:

http://www.cafemom.com/journals/read/1173535/Saliva_Ferning_Patterns_Information_Trying_to_Conceive
http://homepage.mac.com/amerikiwiusa/PhotoAlbum47.htmlPros:Ease of use
Cheap
Earlier detection than OPKsCons:Instructions a little hard to follow, but once I figured it out it was easyI would recommend this item to a friend.Interesting!By Michelle from Dunkirk, NY on October 21, 2010 This was recommended to me by a friend who had success with it. It took about a week to really get used to, but I did see a pattern. I do feel like it works, only used it for a month with no success, but will continue to try!! I have been TTC for about 2 1/2 years now so trying everything at this point!Pros:Pretty easy to do!!!Cons:Not much, a little confusing at first. It should come with a lens cloth, but doesn't.I would recommend this item to a friend.Easy to useBy jhkv from Abbotsford, BC on October 18, 2010 I have been using this item for not quite two months, its easy to use, very small so it's discreet and easy to travel with. The instructions are pretty simple and you have no problem seeing what's on the screen. I have tried a lot of other things as well and still want to see how this works out.Pros:It's size
Simple to useCons:NothingI would recommend this item to a friend.Kind of ConfusingBy Ashley from Indiana on October 17, 2010 I bought it thinking it would be easy to read but it really wasn't. I did buy if off Amazon not here though. I still tried to read it ever month. Even when we didn't try and never saw anything different.Fertile FocusBy cece from Newark, Delaware on September 24, 2010 I have been using this item for two months now and so far it is good. I haven't got pregnant yet but it seems to me no matter how much saliva you put on the lens i still get air bubbles. I'm still confused about how to read it because it seems that when i'm in transition the image presented looks like i'm ferning. I'm still so so confused. Anyway its a good product for now and its affordable. I'm thinking though of getting the Ova cue. Its expensive but it seems more accurate than this product.Pros:AffordableCons:Products needs to be more accurateI would recommend this item to a friend.Very Difficult to ReadBy Rachael from New York on September 14, 2010 I used this test for about 2 cycles and found it nearly impossible to detect whether or not there was a ferning pattern. I do not recommend this product.Cons:Difficult to readit workedBy Jen from Chicago, IL on September 14, 2010 I read the reviews and thought it was a gamble as the fancy tests are a few hundred dollars and this was only $30. One thing I noticed was a few people mentioned that they had to test at night - this was true for me as well. I didn't really have results in the morning. I used this followed up with an ovulation test strip which showed a "maybe-ish" result. After the first month of trying I had a positive pregnancy test, and am planning to go to the doc for a follow up to make sure all is true. I am amazed it worked so well, and found it really easy to use.Pros:I could keep it around without anybody knowing what it was.I would recommend this item to a friend.GreatBy Mo from Ma on September 13, 2010 Works great!!!I would recommend this item to a friend.Great productBy Melanie from Alabama on September 13, 2010 I have used fertile-focus with the last 3 pregnancies. With 2 of them, I used the opks also. It's very accurate. Use it first thing in the morning. Sometimes, I have to let it dry 20-25 minutes because I check it at 15 minutes and no ferns, but given a little more time to dry--lots of ferning. Takes a month or two to get the hang of it but very accurate and great quality. The company actually e-mailed me recently instructions on how to change the battery (it quit after 3-1/2 years of on and off use between pregnancies). friendly and helpful.
I would recommend this item to a friend.Ovulation TesterBy Kells from Canada on September 8, 2010 Works we are pregnant ..took one month after trying for 9I would recommend this item to a friend.Really Neat ProductBy Jen from NY on August 24, 2010 Although I purchased this item for a slightly different reason than advertised (I'm coming off a hormonal contraceptive and would like to know if/when ovulation returns for the sake of family planning,) it is really fascinating. It couldn't be easier to use, I test first thing in the morning and check the dried scope after my shower. The patterns are surprisingly easy to decipher, and there's virtually no limit to the number of times you can use it.Pros:Easy to use, affordable for number of uses, and its non-invasive.Cons:Not sure if this is even an issue- but what happens when the battery or the light wears out?I would recommend this item to a friend.I love this product! Works great! Highly recommended!By Sherri O. from Los Angeles, CA on August 24, 2010 I have trouble with the OPK strips. For some reason, they all look really similar around the week of ovulation. But the saliva ferning test works great for me. It's easy to use, very accurate, and always gives me plenty of notice of when ovulation is coming. And it's cheaper than the OPK strips, too, because you only have to buy it once. Pros:Easy to use
Very accurate
Good valueCons:nothingI would recommend this item to a friend.Love this productBy Natasha from fl on August 2, 2010 Used it for one month and we found out we were pregnant. However, we are miscarrying but we know we will try again and hopefully get the same quick results.Pros:Easy to use
Economical, easy to read and understand, no guess workI would recommend this item to a friend.Best buy!By Lee from South Africa on July 8, 2010 What a wonderful product! It also took me a while to figure out how much saliva is needed but the moment you get into the hang of it, it's truly amazing and has accurate results. I get clearer results later in the day and I leave it to dry for about 30 minutes. I'm thrilled about this product and can't wait to test in two weeks.Great ToolBy Tammie P from Lombard, IL on July 8, 2010 When this product arrived and I 1st used it I saw ferning. Just coming off the pill, I just knew OV wasn't until a week later so i immediately thought that once again I wasted my money on another conception aid. 36 hours later I got an LH surge using ovulation test strips. I was amazed at how out of tune I was with body. Now that OV has past I definately see the difference between nonfertile and fertile ferning. Hopefully this month is lucky. A few more days until I find out.Finally...By Jae B. from California on May 21, 2010 Ovulation strips are expensive and never accurately detected my ovulation cycle. This allows me to see days before I'm fertile and that is so helpful when you're trying to get pregnant! I'm so glad I purchased this and would recommend to all :)Not AccurateBy Milli S from Boston, MA on January 31, 2010 I don't think this product is accurate. It's been completely off my cycle in predicting ovulation and when it does say I am ovulating we have had sex and no pregnancy. I'm not sure how people have had success using it. Maybe the price should have been an indicator. If it did work then the other more expensive fertility tests would not be needed. Fertile FocusBy SaraP from Texas on December 25, 2009 I would recommend this product to anyone. I tried FertileAid, the ovulation test strips, 2 months of clomid, then bought this decided to take a break from clomid and got pregnant the very first month, I wish I would have found it 14 months ago. BUY IT !AMAZING!!By Sarah from Tyler, TX on November 20, 2009 This product is simply AMAZING!! I tried the ovulation test strips before and they didn't work. I was told that I have to take 4-5/day for 20 days straight in order to get an accurate reading. When I bought the ovulation microscope, I was immediately able to see when I was ovulating and fertile. Within ONE cycle I was pregnant!!! I have recommended this to SOO many people already!! Useful productBy Emily A on November 14, 2009 Began using this product 2 months ago after stopping the pill. For 2 months I saw no ferning at all as my hormones were readjusting. This month has been a completely different story, and it has clearly shown transitioning and full ferning. YEA! I would recommend using it a couple times a day to see when your saliva works the best. I never get results in the morning when i woke up, but in the evening it is clearly different for me. Hoping this month we will have success.Pregnant first month using this!!!!!!By Cindy from Okahoma on November 6, 2009 I just got my BFP at 15 DPO, got a very faint line or the test strips but a very positive on the digital!!!!! Loved it...
However little tip, instructions are not well done... use a toothpick and only put a pin size drop on it, got that from another kit and it worked... too much saliva and you can't read results!A big helpBy Alex from Maryland on October 9, 2009 This little thing is great! I used it to get pregnant with my first child and we nailed it the first month! I'm using it again for my second, and caught my first ovulation before I even had a period again! Easy, accurate, and you don't have to keep buying kit after kit if you don't get pregnant on the first go, like with urine tests. A clear indicatorBy Jen from Seattle, WA on September 6, 2009 I really appreciate the simplicity of this product. At first I was skeptical and also worried about whether I would be able to discern the ferning patterns. But the first time I saw actual ferning, it was so obvious that all my worries vanished.
I have done temperature charting and found it to be so much more labor intensive for a less satisfying result (perhaps due to the variability of my cycles). And the urine strips or electronic monitors are $$$. I would recommend to order this product first, because it will save you money in the short term, and may turn out to be the only OP product you need.Very Reliable Product!By Shalynn A. from Seattle, WA on June 6, 2009 I was using what was known as the Ovulite brand of Saliva OPK and it was practically the same thing as this one...i just want to say that it works like a charm. I got pregnant with my daughter immediately. Within one week of receiving my test I was able to recognize peak fertility and conceived my daughter! I also used testing strips in conjunction with this to confirm. Nothing I had used prior worked like this did and I had been trying for 5 months. I am going to try for my second child soon, and I will be using this test!Not worth the money.By Tammy from TN on February 5, 2009 I have been using this website ever since I started my pregnancy journey and have been 100% satisfied with everything I purchased up until now. I don't think this product is worth the money at all. I'm not satisfied with the quality of this product. I don't think its accurate and the lense is either scratched or always has something on it. I don't think this product is worth the value and does what it claims to do. Be patient and don't spend too much money in the beginning (like I did). Stick with the basics...Ovulation test strips which is definitely worth the value and very accurate. I hope this review was helpful.Amazing resultsBy Mrs. Kelly from MI on September 6, 2008 We had been ttc for 4 months using just ovulation predictor test strips. I decided to order this product and am happy to say that we are now expecting, after just 1 cycle using the microscope!Easy to useBy Celia from Scottsdale, AZ on August 27, 2008 This has been a great test for me so far for predicting my ovulation. I have irregular cycles so this is a must have for trying to conceive. I have had no problems with using this test. It is very very basic. I just scrape the lens underneath my tounge and that works for preventing bubbles. Then I let it sit for a few minutes to dry before inserting back into the tube to view with the light. Results are clear and easy to see. Don't waste money on the expensive saliva testers. I use this test along with the urine strip tests. Worked for me!By Jenn H from Atlanta, GA on August 20, 2008 I had been charting temperatures and other fertility signs for over a year, and was unable to find the pattern in my rather irregular cycle. I bought this product and by the second month my fertility was clearly evident! I got pregnant, and I am due to have my first son in March!I'm so glad I got this!By Lindsay (babymaybe) from Kentucky on July 20, 2008 I was a little skeptical, but all of that went away the first day I used it. I may have been one day past my O day when I first got it and was able to use it, and within 10 minutes saw partial ferning. It's was very easy to distinguish which stage it was in. The next day, today, looked totally different and you could tell there was no ferning at all. Looks like my surge is over now especially with all of the other things I use to determine when ovulation occurs! The Fertile-Focus was right with all of my other O signs with the partial ferning and with today it being gone. I'd highly recommend this product!Amazing Product!By Swati from Denver on March 28, 2008 I used it for 5 days now, it is sooo much easy + interesting to see the ferning pattern.....And it is a NO HASSEL as it is a very simple and short procedure to follow......
I loved this product and will sure recommend it to everybody...
It is reusable so ofcourse it very cheap also.
Hey, check out the pregnancy test strips also, They are cheap, easy, accurate(according to the reviews) but I believe the reviews after using ovulation test now! Thanks all of you!GREAT PRODUCTBy JordynsMom from Stone Mountain, GA on March 7, 2008 I used this product to get pregnant with my first daughter a few years ago and it really worked. I am ordering another one to try and get pregnant with a second child.

Accurate and Easy, takes a little getting used toBy Victoria from MO on December 23, 2007 I've had some trouble discriminating between nonfertile and transitional, but the fertile ferning is unmistakable! I also chart with BBT and CBE monitor, and the Fertile-Focus is wonderful to confirm and double check other results - I do think it would be effective alone as well. I've gotten over 2 years of use out of mine and it's still working great!Decent Ovulation ScopeBy Erin G. from Laurel, NJ on November 9, 2007 I've found it a little difficult to discern between transitional and full ferning but with a little practice you can get the hang of it. All in all a pretty good product for the price.Great Product!By Marta C. from Peoria, IL on October 25, 2007 I've been using the fertile focus for 4 months now and while not pregnant yet at least I know we're timing things right. The ferning pattern is pretty easy to recognize, would suggest testing a couple times a day though at least until you get the hang of it. Fertile-Focus Saliva Ovulation Test |  |
