PdG is low in the beginning of a woman’s cycle and increases after ovulation, so it’s best to Proov on days 7-10 after peak fertility. This is when levels need to be highest in order to confirm successful ovulation. Your peak fertility date should be monitored via your method of choice — LH testing (LH), cervical mucus (CM), or basal body temperature (BBT), not included. Also, keep in mind that PdG levels can vary from woman to woman, and even from one cycle to another, so prooving each cycle is important.
When you first use Proov, take one test the day after your period ends or on cycle day 5, whichever is later. Expect this test result to be negative, as this provides an important baseline result to which you can compare your future results. It’ll come in handy, we promise!
Pro tip 1: You only need to take a baseline test once every 6 cycles.
Pro tip 2: Snap a pic of your Proov results 5-10 minutes after dip (when results are accurate). It’s also helpful to record results on the chart below, with a “Negative” or “Positive” indicating your result that day.
Begin testing for peak fertility with your method of choice: LH tests, cervical mucus, and/or basal body temperature.
Record peak fertility date in the chart below.

By measuring PdG in daily urine on four consecutive days, Proov allows women to get a more complete picture of whether or not they have
successfully ovulated.
A laboratory study has shown this test to be over 99% accurate in detecting PdG in urine. The sensitivity of Proov is 5 ug/ml PdG.
A baseline test helps you understand what a negative Proov test looks like before ovulation.
The test is most accurate with first morning urine. First morning urine is defined as the first urine after your longest sleep. Using any other urine could lead to inaccurate results.
No, 2 pink lines is a negative result, and 1 Control Line is a positive result. The Test Line is often lighter than the Control Line, but it is still a negative result.
Proov tests do not replace medical advice. If you are not getting positive results, you should consult your physician and tell them about this information so they can properly diagnose you.
No, Proov only provides a snapshot of where you are in your cycle and does not provide a reflection of your fertility status. If you have questions about your results, you should consult your physician.
Negative Proov results are as unique as you are!
The darkness of the second line can vary a lot from woman to woman. As long as the 2nd line is visible, the test is considered negative.
Positive results during testing window: PdG levels elevated during testing window; this may indicate successful ovulation this cycle.
Negative results during testing window: PdG levels not elevated high enough to indicate possible ovulation this cycle.
With Proov, you can now test your PdG at home safely and simply. Information from this test can help you determine if lack of ovulation might be preventing you from conceiving this cycle.
Proov test results can be impacted by accuracy of ovulation prediction method used, fluctuations in individual PdG levels, and precision of Proov test usage as indicated.
