The menstrual cycle stages and ferning. The cycle graph shows how all of this plays out. The top line represents the estrogen curve, the bottom line is progesterone and the darkened area below is the uterine lining; cross-sectioned. Read more information about the Menstrual Cycle Stages. <img loading="lazy" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-302" src="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/fertility_cycle_graph-300x266.png" alt="menstrual cycle stages" width="300" height="266" srcset="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/fertility_cycle_graph-300x266.png 300w, http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/fertility_cycle_graph.png 535w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" />It is scientifically accepted that fertility is for a short time and that in any ovulatory cycle a woman has only about 24-48 hours in which her egg can be fertilized. Before ovulation, the sperm can survive up to 72 hours (3 days) and even up to 5 days, in the cervix and fallopian tubes, in less common circumstances. (Many women we work with have experienced this timing when there was an acidic environment.) So now we know that, if intercourse takes place up to 3-5 days before ovulating, a woman may become pregnant during peak fertility and even up to 5. When we look at this phase (Cycle Graph) we see there are up 7 days per month (3-5 days prior to fertility, and 2 days of fertility) that a woman might be considered fertile. Looking at this with ferning in mind, since the release of the egg, is seen as the end of opportunity the declining of the ferns will signify the passing of fertility. Ferns will wane, just as they waxed, but usually more quickly once ovulation has taken place. In the Cycle Graph notice the line at the top, under the word pregnancy. If you were to become pregnant, this line shows that progesterone would stay high and not begin to drop as with the darker progesterone line. This would occur around day 20-23 in a 28 day cycle; if ovulation occurred around day 14. Adjust accordingly to when you ovulated. The egg may become available for fertilization by sperm at anywhere from very early in the cycle (rarely, if shedding from the previous cycle were delayed) to Day 20 of the cycle. Typically it would be more like days 12-16. Remember, this is a typical cycle we are describing. When a woman is in an infertile time and estrogen is low, the typical pattern would be that of scattered dots on an otherwise clear slide. Mark these days as infertile. NOTE: This is the safest time for love-making if avoiding conception and would account for somewhere about 22-24 total days, before and after ovulation, in a 28 day cycle. Remember that only abstinence is full proof. There are no guaranteed ‘safe’ days in NFP. As FSH peaks and estrogen is bubbling over from matured follicles, and all is going well, a woman’s mucus membranes produce more salt in the body. This salt is elevated in proportion to the estrogen rise and when dry will form fern-like or frost-like patterns on a slide. This is what to watch for. This is explained in the Fertility Tracker booklet along with images of the ferning patterns you may see at this time. As a woman nears this time of fertility the patterns forming on a slide would begin to show the coming together of the scattered dots or chards of glass-like patterns. This signals that the beginning of what is called ferning will most likely be coming soon. When this fern-like pattern appears and then peaks in its fullness, ovulation will usually occur. NOTE: The pattern is formed because the salt gathers together. Without the presence of this salt, fluid repels itself and evaporates when dry; leaving barely a pattern, just dots, to observe. For women with anovulatory cycles, the menstrual cycle and ferning patterns can be very frustrating. This “infertile dot” pattern can last a long time. The onset of the clustering, even in small amounts, shows that fertility may now be increasing. Actually more to the point it signifies that estrogen is dominant and unopposed. This last statement is key to understanding what you might see in parts of your cycle. We are really tracking estrogen patterns which can be our guide to fertility. Using ovulation prediction kits, cassettes or strips can be frustrating since you are not able to see patterns evolving. For couples trying to conceive: This is the time to begin what is called baby dancing. (This is a common preconception term meaning to make love.) Tracking the menstrual cycle and ferning is very helpful if your husband has a poor sperm count. Since you can see things progressing you will know to make love every other day until the clusters disappear and become dots again. If your husband’s count and motility is good then you may make love daily, before ovulation, for best chances. For women avoiding pregnancy, at this time; NFP: From the time the dots begin to cluster and/or form ferns, it is time to avoid making love. When the clusters become dispersed, and dots again, you are considered to be safe / infertile. Again, we must state that this is not birth control, there are no chemicals or barrier methods, but an aid to natural family planning. Take time to get to know YOUR menstrual cycle and ferning patterns before depending on this method. At first, Natural Family Planning with the use of the saliva ferning method is best when used with temperatures and/or checking cervical changes and mucus to ensure that ovulation has passed, before resuming love making. See the other methods of tracking fertility as well in this booklet. Together these methods make strong allies in NFP. Remember: When avoiding conception you will have abstained from the time the clustering began until the dots resumed or ovulation was confirmed. Also, especially in the beginning as you become familiar with your ferning patterns, you may decide to use other barrier methods along with The Fertility Tracker®. In a 28 cycle a peak in ferning would usually happen about days 12-16, prior to ovulation. This is the signal that ovulation is eminent but means that a woman may have been fertile, in anticipation of ovulation, for several days. Here is the beauty of the Fertility Tracker®. Since most women using fertility detection devices for fertility tracking are not “typical” in monthly patterns, the Fertility Tracker® will show YOUR patterns according to YOUR estrogen patterns. If you ovulate later, your ferns will show up later and vice versa. This is why The Fertility Tracker® has been recommended so highly for infertile couples; those without “typical” cycles. Nothing compares to SEEING how your menstrual cycle and ferning patterns play out. Visit our store to purchase the Fertility Tracker and other helpful fertility and daily supplements.

The menstrual cycle stages can seem vague or too scientific unless you understand why, when and how it all works. After that it is a simple formula to follow. The Menstrual Cycle Overview As mentioned before, when tracking the days of the menstrual cycle, the first day of menstruation, or bleeding, is called Day 1 of that cycle. The cycle ends when menstruation begins again. This varies immensely from 20 to more than 90 days but a “typical” cycle would be from 26 – 32 days; with 28 being the optimum. In situations such as PCOD/PCOS – Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome – ovulation can be well past Day 20 and so the cycle would be much longer than 32 days. Women suffering from this tend to have lengthy cycles along with other common symptoms. You do not even have to ovulate for it to appear you have completed a cycle. This is called break through bleeding and is common to women with hormonal imbalance. Phases of the Menstrual Cycle <img loading="lazy" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-313" src="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/plottingchart-150x150.png" alt="tracking fertility ferning with the fertility tracker" width="150" height="150" srcset="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/plottingchart-150x150.png 150w, http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/plottingchart-300x300.png 300w, http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/plottingchart.png 696w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" />There are two phases. The first is the Follicular Phase which is when follicles are matured and hopefully one matured enough to make a healthy egg. The second phase is called the Luteal Phase. It has to do with ovulation and beyond. LH which is luteinizing hormone is the hormone that causes the release of the egg and from there fertilization determines how the rest of the cycle goes. The length of the Luteal Phase, is the better indication of the quality of the cycle. The Luteal Phase will tell if the egg is healthy or not by how long it provides progesterone to the hormonal symphony. See the articles on Beyond Fertility about Luteal Phase Defect. [box type=”info”] The key of course is “seeing” those days when a woman is most fertile, to prevent or enhance conception. This is the wonder of the Fertility Tracker[/box] The primary hormones of the menstrual cycle are Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), Estrogen (which is actually a name given to a group of 3 hormones) Luteinizing Hormone (as in the LH surge), Testosterone and Progesterone. The function of each of these follow according to the order in which they “appear” and “reappear” in the cycle. In Toni Weischler’s book Taking Charge of Your Fertility (available in the Fertility Tracker store), it is explained best. She uses the mnemonic FELOP for the hormones of the synchronized cycle. The order is FSH (maturation of the follicle) Estrogen peak, LH – Luteinizing Hormone surge, then Ovulation, then Progesterone. FSH stimulates the follicles to mature and grow in estrogen. Then, when Estrogen rises to its peak… Luteinizing Hormone – LH, is signaled to spike and release the matured egg. Ovulation happens. The egg covering, called the yellow body or the Corpus Luteum, is a progesterone covering needed for pregnancy; should it occur. The CL is left behind in the matured follicle’s sac and heals over while signaling the making of hormones for possible pregnancy. Progesterone now becomes the dominant hormone for the luteal phase of the cycle. There will be a certain number of days when progesterone should be dominant, unless pregnancy occurs at which time progesterone will stay high until near to labor time. Broken down a little more, it is like this: FSH stimulates 15-20 follicles, on average each month, to begin to mature in each ovary. Each possible egg was once a follicle. These follicles are stimulated to produce oestrogen, which is ultimately needed for ovulation to occur. As the follicles mature they “ooze” estrogen into the blood stream (which shows in the saliva). As the follicles are stimulated one will mature to become the “egg of the month.” When a heightened level of oestrogen is seen by the hypothalamus it signals the pituitary to release a surge of LH. This LH spike causes the matured egg (from one of the follicles) to release from the ovary. The sac that is left in the follicle is called the Corpus Luteum (yellow body) and it heals up and causes the production of progesterone for the remainder of the cycle or for pregnancy. In some cases more than one will mature and be released causing twins or even triplets. Either ovary can release an egg depending on which is ripened first. How how long it will take to reach an estrogen peak or threshold determines how long this part of the pre-ovulation part of the cycle will last. The high levels of oestrogen cause the peak ferning days. Each day the ferns grow fuller shows the amount of estrogen that is coming from maturing follicles. The second half of the cycle begins; the part of the cycle that progesterone is now the dominant hormone and pregnancy can occur. As we explained, the first phase is the Follicular phase, followed by the Luteal Phase and divided by ovulation. An ideal cycle would follow phases of the moon and be about 28 days.

How The Menstrual Cycle Works What does the term menstrual cycle mean? When you are talking about the menstrual cycle you need to think about the different terms first. It is called the menstrual cycle because of menses or menstruation. Menstruation for instance the actual bleeding in the menstrual cycle. When we say menstrual cycle, we are talking about the time from the first day flow, of cyclic bleeding to the first day of the next cycle’s bleeding. The first day of your period, Aunt Flow, friend, bleeding etc, whatever you wish to call is is Day 1 of your cycle. When bleeding stops, ovulation is complete and you begin to bleed again, usually 28 – 32 days later, you are starting the Day 1 of the next cycle. There is always a Day 1 but that is the only number we can count on since cycles vary in length.<img loading="lazy" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-207" src="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/whentogetpregnantcalendar-150x150.png" alt="whentogetpregnantcalendar" width="147" height="147" srcset="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/whentogetpregnantcalendar-150x150.png 150w, http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/whentogetpregnantcalendar-300x300.png 300w, http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/whentogetpregnantcalendar.png 422w" sizes="(max-width: 147px) 100vw, 147px" /> Within each cycle there are different parts. The cycle is broken into two main parts. The first is the Follicular Phase and the second half is called the Luteal Phase. The Follicular Phase is when follicles grow into a mature egg before ovulation. The Luteum Phase includes luteinizing Hormone (LH), ovulation, implantation and the progesterone dominant part of the cycle. Most books define a typical cycle, rather than a “normal cycle” so as not to offend. We prefer the term ‘healthy cycle’, but will use the term typical cycle for ease here. To begin with let’s talk about a healthy cycle in order to understand how the menstrual cycle works and later explain a non-typical, unhealthy cycle. Studies suggest that at least 1 in 6 couples deal with infertility of some sort. Either way, The Fertility Tracker® is designed to show what is happening to you; according to your individual body. There are no chemical interactions as with Clear Blue or Clear Plan Easy or LH detection strips. Our Fertility Tracker uses your own patterns to determine what is happening in your personal cycle. A picture is worth a thousand words. If you have purchased a Fertility Tracker, you will find (or have found) our customer support is especially helpful for times of confusion or a need for more clarification. Don’t worry, we are here.

Ferning and The Fertility Tracker Since 1945, scientists have been studying the phenomenon of ferning in cervical fluid, when Papanicolau first observed microscopic crystal formations in cervical fluid (cervical mucus). Subsequently, other scientific researchers have studied ferning of other body fluids, including saliva. It has been concluded that there is a direct correlation between saliva ferning and ovulation. Generally speaking, it appears that salivary ferning begins one to two days before the onset of wet cervical fluid. A saliva fertility monitor can be used to help determine when a woman is in her fertile period. With continuous use, a saliva fertility monitor will be able to indicate a woman’s monthly cycle behavior. Saliva fertility monitors can even be used to help avoid undesired pregnancy. Why Ferning Detection is Better When it comes to knowing exactly when it is that you ovulate and how your cycle works, ferning detection can provide you with up to 98% accuracy. You can use a saliva fertility monitor along with a basal body temperature chart to accurately identify when you are most fertile and to help you even select the gender of your child. Unlike urine LH monitors, saliva monitors can provide you with advance notice of ovulation – up to 5 days prior. Today, one of the most advanced and most cost-effective saliva fertility monitors is the Fertility Tracker. The Fertility Tracker was designed to help women understand their cycles and bodies and be able to use this information in a natural way to either conceive or avoid conception. The Fertility Tracker uses your saliva to help you determine your personal fertility status daily. Levels of estrogen which are known to rise during the pre-ovulation period are seen through the patterns formed on the lens.

Hormone Test Kits Hormones directly and indirectly control all of our body’s processes and hormone test kits can really aid in determining if we have an imbalance. If we do have an imbalance, many of our body’s processes may be impacted. There are many hormones in the human body and among the most important is estrogen. Estrogen is the hormone that makes a woman feel like a woman. Estrogen modulates the course of both a woman’s menstrual cycle and when she begins menopause. Thus, an imbalance in estrogen can lead to headaches, weight gain, mood swings, abdominal cramping and PMS. Moreover, when you are estrogen-deficient, you are at risk for various bone-related conditions and cardiovascular system dysfunction. Additionally, estrogen has a great impact on ovulation and pregnancy. Saliva Hormone Test Kits Knowing your body is key to restoring and maintaining good health. By using saliva hormone test kits, you will be able to determine what may be causing you not to feel well, get pregnant, or even lose weight. Saliva hormone test kits can determine active levels of hormones as opposed to blood tests that are unable to distinguish active from inactive hormone levels. Today, you can use saliva hormone test kits to test and reveal how well your body is doing its job. You can use saliva hormone test kits for risk prevention, to test for chronic illness and to evaluate physiological function. BodyBalance is leading the way to helping individuals attain good health with their saliva hormone test kits.

Saliva Hormone Tests What is crucial for optimal health is to insure that your hormones are in balance, and you can start by performing a saliva hormone test. A saliva hormone test provides you with a convenient, cost-effective way to find out if you are lacking specific hormones that are causing you to feel a certain way (e.g., tired all of the time, hungry, stressed-out, etc.) or preventing you from conceiving a baby. A hormone imbalance can greatly impact the quality of your life. Most people who are suffering from symptoms of a hormone imbalance will go to their doctor and have it checked out. For example, a woman suffering from fibrocystic breasts whose symptoms are getting progressively worse understands that as she approaches menopause it is probably due to a hormone imbalance. Often, she wants to verify this hormonal imbalance and get some relief from the symptoms that she is experiencing. Also, a man who suffers from fatigue and a low sex drive will often will seek hormone testing as a way to determine if he has a testosterone imbalance. While there is little question that hormonal imbalances are a driving force that compels individuals to get their hormones tested, the cost of going to their doctor and doing so is not always prudent. Moreover, blood (serum) hormone testing often is stressful, and the stress of a blood draw can sometimes even alter the result. This is when a home saliva hormone test becomes quite beneficial. Saliva collection is easy and can be completed anywhere, at any time and at a much lower cost. Today, thousands of men and woman world-wide are testing their hormone levels in the comfort of their own homes. Home Saliva Hormone Tests Saliva hormone testing can now easily be completed with home test kits like ZRT Labs. ZRT Labs home saliva hormone test kits reveal how well your body is doing its job and can help you detect problem areas. You can use a ZRT Labs test kit in the comfort of your home and have the results back within just a week or two.

Hormone Saliva Test The key to hormones for both men and women is balance, and a hormone saliva test kit can help you achieve this balance. Hormones are messenger molecules that enter the bloodstream and work to help keep our bodies in balance. They affect all aspects of our bodies and the way they function. When our bodies are not in balance, they break down and do not perform the way they should. A hormone saliva test can tell whether or not an imbalance has occurred. This is actually what sets the Fertility Tracker apart as a fertility ovulation monitor because saliva is so dependable. Saliva Can Tell Us A Lot Saliva originates from the salivary glands that are located just under the tongue and along the sides of the mouth. It is composed of a complex mixture of antibodies, electrolytes, enzymes, hormones and mucins, all of which serve a purpose. Your saliva can reveal if you are deficient in any of these areas. When hormone levels are low, you can experience a wide array of illnesses and problems, such as fertility problems, lack of energy and muscle strength, libido problems, menopausal symptoms, bone loss, depression, fatigue, hot flashes, and memory loss and sleep disturbances. Compared to blood tests, there are numerous advantages to using a hormone saliva test. The convenience and simplicity of testing your saliva any place or time of day is certainly more advantageous than going to a doctor’s office or clinic to give blood. Saliva testing is a very state-of-the-art way to test hormone levels and the World Health Organization has endorsed this method for its own testing. Best Hormone Saliva Test Kit ZRT Labs offers you the best way to test your saliva in private and accurately. ZRT Labs specializes in diagnostic saliva tests that evaluate chronic illness, physiological function, and risk prevention. Today, ZRT Labs is leading the way in the marketplace for testing your hormone levels at home. Saliva tests are able to determine active levels of hormones that may affect conception, menstrual cycle, menopause, PMS, muscle and bone development, skin elasticity, muscle mass, sleep patterns and more.

Trying to Conceive Up until now, you probably never thought much about how conception works, but now that you are trying to conceive, it is important that you understand a few facts. First of all, women and men are different and as individuals, they have their own chemical makeup. This chemical makeup determines how easily the woman can get pregnant and how easily the man can impregnate the woman. While we all believe that we know the basics when trying to conceive, when you are having trouble getting there, than you need to start educating yourself more. The truth of the matter is that getting pregnant is not always an easy task. If you are in good health, however, your chances of getting pregnant are much better. Before you even begin trying to conceive, it is important that you review a few things about yourself, how you live, and how these things may or may not impact your getting pregnant. Before Trying to Conceive <img loading="lazy" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-212" src="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/positivepregnancytest.png" alt="positivepregnancytest" width="150" height="150" srcset="http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/positivepregnancytest.png 440w, http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/positivepregnancytest-150x150.png 150w, http://fertilitytracker.com/wp-content/uploads/positivepregnancytest-300x300.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" />It is always best when deciding to have a baby that you get a physical exam. As mentioned, being in good health will maximize your chances of conception. Ask your doctor to run any tests that might be helpful should things not go as well as you hope. Secondly, there are some factors that reduce the chances of conception. Smoking may reduce your chances as will being underweight as well. Women who are closer to their recommended weight have a better chance of getting pregnant than those who are not. Additionally, caffeine appears to lower the chances of getting pregnant. Thus, it is best to lower your consumption of any products that contain caffeine when trying to conceive. Most importantly, avoid stress. High levels of stress are known to reduce the chances of conception and, therefore, stressful situations should be avoided (even work-related) when trying to conceive. Once you have made the appropriate changes in your life so that you can become pregnant, you should then begin trying. If you have difficulty or you want to improve your chance of getting pregnant right away, then you should take advantage of the Fertility Tracker and consider the book by Toni Weischler called Taking Charge of Your Fertility. I can recommend no book more highly. The purpose of the Fertility Tracker is to help you “pinpoint” when ovulation will occur; thus improving your chances of conception as soon as possible. Considering that most women do not know even the basics of their cycles or even if they ovulate, you are in good hands with the Fertility Tracker on your night stand. We have many helpful articles on our www.wholefamilyhealth.com under our articles section. For some we recommend doing what is called a cleansing shutdown or “cleansing for TTC.” We have been helping couples to overcome infertility problems since 1995 and would love to do the same for you if possible. Our methods are natural and do not include invasive allopathic medicine, fertility drugs or fertility procedures. We simply teach you how to clean up your body in preparation for your little one. The best way to love your baby is to give him a healthy start to life. The post Trying To Conceive appeared first on Fertility Tracker.
