Description
Predict ovulation up to 72 hours in advance.
The Fertile Focus Saliva Ovulation Test is a specially designed microscope that illuminates ferning in your saliva to help you track your fertility.
With Fertile Focus, you can see the visual changes that take place in your saliva throughout your cycle and you’ll be able to predict your ovulation as much as 72 hours in advance. In the days 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. You’ll easily be able to identify the crystal patterns, or ferning, using the 50X magnification glass lens.
To use the Fertile Focus Saliva Ovulation Test: Simply place a dab of fresh saliva on the lens window. Allow saliva to dry (about five minutes). Press an LED light button to illuminate the sample. Use view through the lens to determine if you are “not fertile,” “transitional” or “fertile.” Complete instructions are included.
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: it looks like an attractive lipstick case
Convenience: test anytime and anywhere
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.

Let me do a pro/con list and at the end a personal account of this device.
Pros: Non invasive, Easy to use, INEXPENSIVE, quick results, Small doesn’t draw attention if carried in a purse as its about the size of a tube of lipstick and suck, Attractive color scheme that doesn’t draw attention, Clear and Easily understood directions for the device, I like how you have a paper chart or you can upload the app to keep records of your readings (I do both), Easy to apply the sample to be evaluated. Very Fast results with in 5 mins.
Cons: After using the device the black metal/pain begins to flake from either adjusting it so you can see the sample clearly or putting it back into the tube. These flakes got down between the glass and the lense part of the device I had gentle cleaned, blew air anything I could to get the large black specks off before gently unskrewing it all the way and blowing them off without touching the lense and putting it back together. The device is hard to line back up to push the lens back into the piece that hold he light. I ended up using a sharpie to mark it to make it easier but it can still be annoying especially as your afraid of ruining it (cracking/scratching the lens, having it fall apart, having the tube crack as it is brittle plastic, breaking the light), Having the button you have to push and hold at the bottom of the device is bothersome. You could set it down on a table and use it like a microscope if the button was on the side you can’t set it up at all right now unless upside down and it’s to risky for the lense, also its hard to hold the button down on the bottom try to adjust the lense to see clearly and hold it perfectly still at your eye all at the same time.
Personal Account: I got this on the last two days of my period, spotting mainly, I followed the directions applied saliva sample let it dry and was ferning fully. I actually was shocked at how intricate I was able to see the crystal pattern. I thought maybe it was a fluke after all who is showing this at the last days of there period, then next day I tested fully ferning again, third day I could see it begin to wane and so on until it was none at all. It went against all the ovulation predictors I have ever seen or used before in that I was ovulating right at the end of my period ( my periods are very short 4 or 5 days at most) then for my last baby I used a Fertility Monitor device that used urine sticks and put them in a detailed journal over the course of 6 months when we felt I knew my cycle enough to try and did become pregnant on that try. All of them showed me ovulating at the very end of my period or within the first week after my period. My oldest I conceived her the week after my period. I recall this because I hurt so bad I had to go to the ER and I’d just met my husband. It was our first time together I that way so its very much in my mind. As I am coming closer to my period this cycle I am noticing light as in two or three crystal formations showing on the lens. So I can say this does work in so far as showing hormone levels. Though I have not seen a transitional to fully ferning just one day non fertile the next full ferning. If I do indeed conceive I will report back withw hen and how long it took as I got this in July 1st of 2017.

I was experiencing amennorhea (no period) after having my daughter. I stopped breastfeeding at 17 months in an attempt to bring back my period so that we could start trying for baby #2! However, months passed and still no period! I bought many ovulation predictor sticks along with this ferning microscope. Two months before I actually regained my period, the ferning microscope showed up as “transitional” for a few days but never the full ferning. I actually stopped using it because I thought it just wasn’t working for me. The ovulation predictor sticks weren’t working either, so I just figured I would give myself a break from it all and stop stressing. Then bam, I got my period! So excitedly, I began using the sticks and ferning microscope again each day. The sticks never once worked for me. I think I just always drank too much water during the day for them to function properly. However, I was SUPER impressed by the microscope. It showed three days of transition and one day of beautiful ferning. The nerd in me couldn’t even contain how cool and beautiful I thought the ferning was!!! I couldn’t stop looking at it. My husband was amazed too. Following the ferning, it continued to show the transitional phase again. So my advice for everyone out there – just keep using it. It’s so easy too. I kept mine in the bathroom and would stumble in groggily each morning and put my drop of saliva (I always made sure to get quite a bit on there, taking it from underneath my tongue with my pinky). That’s it! You can even forget about it and check it later that night. Soooo EASY! Shipping was fairly fast to Canada too 🙂 Highly recommend!

Hard to focus and hard to tell wtf you’re looking at, except for that same hair that seems to always be there no matter how many times you clean the lens, however, I totally saw “ferning” the other day after fiddling around with the focusing, and the nerd in me got all excited about science. Don’t know if I would rely on it as much as the ovulation pee-sticks because sometimes you just wonder if your saliva sample wasn’t done right or if you just aren’t focusing properly, but the pros are when you have a super irregular cycle you don’t have to go through so many sticks.

I misused and broke mine……sad to say.

Tried to experiment before doing and not sure I totally get it. Science sounds good but just not sure yet

This is an awesome product! It’s so easy to use and interpret results. I would recommend this to TTC moms.
Barbie (verified owner) –
As with everything it will take some practice looking through the scope to see ferning (if there is any) and also some practice adding your saliva sample. I like to take pictures to keep track of the ferning patterns. A great product for the price. Good luck and loads of baby dust to all =)
lydia roberts (verified owner) –
I have been using this product for about a week and am starting to see a pattern but I am quite sure it will be easier to identify when I have used for my entire month cycle. I bought this product on high recommendations from friends. I am looking forward to using this product to better understand my most fertile times!

My hubby and I have have been TTC for 16 months, I’ve always had regular cycles lasting from 29-32 days. I bought Fertile Focus to help track ovulation along with taking the OPK tests. I had a positive pregnancy test yesterday, first month of using this microscope. It can be a little bit tricky getting the right amount of saliva on the lens but I would definitely recommend this product.
Cassie (verified owner) –
Very easy to use
Kim (verified owner) –
So far so good
Colleen (verified owner) –
I really like this microscope because I’ve used OPKs for months and I usually get 5-7 positive tests around ovulation, so it’s not particularly helpful. With this microscope I don’t have to worry about my hydration level, which can influcence OPK results. The one thing I didn’t like is the plastic that holds the lens itself cracked when i put the lens in the wrong way. Doesn’t effect the function, but a little bothersome.
Kay (verified owner) –
I have only had mine a week or so. But after a full year of unsuccessful fertility tracking I’m hopeful this will help me see a pattern in my 78+day cylces.

So far it works on not fertile I just started my period 3 days ago so we will see if the results change

I bought a much more expensive machine for over $300 from here and it didn’t work well for me for over a year. I have PCOS and the readings weren’t consistent. I bought this on a fluke for $27 and I clearly saw the ferning in the first month using it and now I am 11 weeks pregnant! Highly recommend!
Leslie (verified owner) –
I recommend this item to anyone TTC. I used to spend so much money on ovulation tests and ovulation predictor kits but thankfully I have found the one product that actually works and not to mention you can take unlimited tests!
Eve (verified owner) –
I love this! Until this micro i wasn’t sure when I ovulated. I waited until the cm,stomach cramps, and temp rise, but turns out i got all that after ovulation. Days after! With this i noticed exactly the day i ovulated. I took a ovulation test strip and it was positive!! Hope this month is the one!!
I advise anyone who is ttc to try it.
Nikki (verified owner) –
Did not work at all!!! Even the top part lid did not close and would fall off sucks. Worst buy ever. Waste of money
Amy (verified owner) –
I bought this because i was tired of having to buy opk’s every month. I had an hsg done this month and didn’t figure it would show anything, but a few days after my hsg it showed “ferning”. I am just a few days away from testing
Sunshine (verified owner) –
I have been using this since I received it and it has been nothing but pure success! I actually like this better then the thermometer for temps because I can wake up at any time in the morning and just take it.
Angela (verified owner) –
It didn’t take me long to figure it out. I actually just started using it a few days ago so I’m not expecting to see any “ferns” just yet. I ordered this because I was tired of buying opks after opks, months after months and years after years of trying for baby #2. We hit our 4 year mark at the beginning of the month and wanted to make a change of something and this was the first change I made. I like that this is small enough to take along with and that I don’t have to use and sticks and this is re-usable.
Heather (verified owner) –
This product takes a while to get the hang of. I find it difficult to look through the small lens. My eye starts to hurt trying to focus so hard on it! It does give you the results it is supposed to though.
Froggy (verified owner) –
The spot for saliva to go is very small so therefore does not allow you to see a whole lot. I do enjoy the overall small size of the product but wish that the viewing area was bigger or to have multiple surfaces to compare days.
Kris (verified owner) –
great product, easy to use, fast shipping. Highly recommend.
Satisfied Customer (verified owner) –
I bought this feeling skeptical about it, but thought I might as well try since we had been unsuccessful for 9 months. I tried it every day for one month to get the hang of what I was looking for, and the very next month got pregnant. I was so excited I bought one for a friend who had been trying for 3 years. After 2 months of use it helped her realize she had a triphasic cycle (in addition to other medical reasons for difficulty conceiving) and on the 3rd month of use was pregnant herself!
Brenda –
My first cycle using the fertile focus I wasnt sure it was going to work..been TTC for 2.5 yrs now, but I started testing as soon as I got it. Not fertile was easy to see just a bunch of dots and lines..was like that for a few days..but then on cd 11..I was excited when i seen some partial ferning and still some dots..it was like that till cd 16 I got a full ferning crystals and it was so pretty..you will definitely know the difference when you see it. Opks are still neg but getting darker. .**fingers crossed** hoping this is our cycle ♥

I’ve always been extremely irregular and have been ttc for three years now. Hopefully this product will let me know exactly when the BEST time to try is cause guessing and tracking is clearly never going to work for us.
