A woman with infertility is using a urinary ovulation predictor kit at home. A positive result most commonly indicates which event?
Correct answer: B. An increase in luteinising hormone has occurred
- A. Menstruation will begin within one hour
- B. An increase in luteinising hormone has occurred
- C. Implantation has already occurred in the uterus
- D. Ovarian reserve has been permanently exhausted
Explanation
The kit detects the luteinising hormone surge, which usually occurs shortly before ovulation. It does not confirm pregnancy, implantation or the adequacy of ovarian reserve.

It includes pelvic examination, specimen collection, preoperative and postoperative care, medication support, privacy and counselling, and distinguishes gynaecological conditions from normal pregnancy-related changes.
