There are five major methods described as followed, 1) Basal Body Temperature (BBT) http://www.ovulation-calculator.com/bbt-faq.htm 2) Ovulation Prediction Kit test http://www.ovulation-calculator.com/ovulation-tests/ovulation-tests.htm 3) Checking cervical mucus 4) Checking Ultrasound imaging 5) Body Sensations
Read MoreBasal body temperature is the lowest temperature attained by the body during rest (usually during sleep). It is generally measured immediately after awakening and before any physical activity has been undertaken, although the temperature measured at that time is somewhat higher than the true basal body temperature (see Fig. 1). Therefore, the earlier BBT taken, […]

Read MoreCorrelation Study of Invigorating the Kidney and Regulating the Chong & Ren Vessel Method to Intervene the VEFG Level in Follicular Fluid and the Incidence of OHSS. A graduate thesis http://www.lunwentianxia.com/product.sf.3190537.1/ 论文简介：目的：1．观察补肾调冲法对接受体外受精(IVF)治疗的患者卵巢过度刺激综合征(OHSS)的预防效果及对患者卵泡液中血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)、雌二醇(E)水平的影响，并探讨其作用机理。2．探讨接受IVF治疗的患者卵泡液中VEGF的水平与OHSS的关系。 方法：1．入选66例接受IVF治疗的患者随机分为试验组(二至天癸颗粒合西药组)33例和对照组(西药组)33例，比较两组患者取卵日肾虚证侯较垂体降调节后的改善情况，患者用药后OHSS发生率的差异，HCG日血清E2水平，卵泡液VEGF水平，促性腺激素(Gn)用量，Gn天数的差异。2．比较发生OHSS的患者与未发生OHSS的患者卵泡液中VEGF、E水平的差异。3．比较两组患者卵泡液中VEGF、E水平的相关性及对照组患者卵泡液中VEGF水平与Gn用量的相关性。 结果：1．与对照组相比，试验组肾虚证侯明显改善，OHSS发生率降低。2．试验组卵泡液VEGF水平，Gn用量，Gn天数明显低于对照组。3．发生OHSS的患者卵泡液VEGF水平比未发生OHSS的患者水平高。4．两组患者卵泡液中VEGF、E水平有明显的相关性。对照组患者卵泡液中VEGF水平与Gn用量无相关性。 结论：1．补肾调冲法通过改善肾虚证侯明显降低OHSS发生，其机理可能与调控卵泡液中VEGF、E水平，激活卵泡液微环境VEGF、E活性有关。2．补肾调冲法可明显减少Gn用量，Gn天数，减轻病人的痛苦及经济负担。3．发生OHSS的患者卵泡液VEGF水平明显高于未发生OHSS的患者，提示VEGF可能参与了OHSS的发病机制；卵泡液VEGF水平可以作为预测OHSS发生的检测指标。4．在超促排卵过程中，VEGF是否可作为。肾阳虚水湿泛滥的监测指标有待进一步探讨。
