A Must Have!!!!
By Kellie B. from Culpeper, Virginia on July 13, 2010
After reading all the reviews, I knew I had to have this! I have only had it for 2 cycles now and was completely blown away at my real time of ovulation. Bye-Bye store bought test kits! Viewing the results seems a little tricky at first, but give it time... you will see exactly what the instructions say to look for. All in all, I am very pleased with this monitor and recommend this to anyone.
Pros:
Easily predicts ovulation!
Small and compact
Affordable :)
Onetime purchase (no more constant purchasing of test strips)
Cons:
No dislikes!I would recommend this item to a friend.
No baby dust yet
By Elizabeth from Chicago, IL on July 12, 2010
I am able to see ferning patterns throughout my cycle, but it's hard to tell which day I am actually ovulating on. I have been using it now for 2 months, however not preg yet.
Pros:
small and discreet
can see ferning patternsCons:
hard to tell what day I am actually ovulatingI would recommend this item to a friend.
Very Useful
By Jenn from Washington, DC on July 2, 2010
The ovulation microscope is easy to use. It is amazing to see the difference of the dried patterns in my saliva as my hormone levels change and it is very helpful in making me more aware of where I am in my cycle.
Pros:
Easy to use. Does exactly what I need it to with no fuss.Cons:
The cover for the bottom of the microscope slides when I am pushing the bottom to turn on the light.I would recommend this item to a friend.
Good for looking at spit
By Lee from Vancouver on July 1, 2010
The microscope works and clearly shows whether or not there is ferning in your saliva. I have yet to confirm if the salival ferning correlates at all with ovulation. I am breastfeeding and just had my first period so we will see what happens in this cycle.
Pros:
good price
arrived promptly
does what is promises
fun experiment in the morning when the night's activities are too unpredictable for temperature takingCons:
More literature on salival ferning would be nice- I have seen ferning that I'm pretty sure had nothing to do with ovulation. I don't think it's as simple as the pamphlet would like you to believe. I'm not positive there will be a correlation between ovulation and salival ferning.I would recommend this item to a friend.
AWESOME
By Christyna from London, Ontario on June 27, 2010
I had a miscarriage in FEb and my cycle has been very unpredictable. Using BBT and counting I was not able to figure out when I was fertile but fertile focus works great! The key is to let your salvia dry longer than 4 minutes I find. Wait 10-20 mins and see the results.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
The microscope works!!!
By glee from Atlanta, Georgia on June 25, 2010
I have tried the strips, taking my temperature and none of it worked for me. This is such an easy way to see if and when I'm ovulating. I'm so glad that I made the purchase! The biggest thing is to put a drop of saliva almost like a tiny puddle to get the best results. The first time I just did a thin smear it was harder to see the results.
I would recommend this item to a friend.
Love it
By Angel on June 1, 2010
I recently purchased the fertile focus microscope. I really enjoy using this product! It works great! I haven\'t concieved yet, because this is my first month actively TTC, but I have witnessed the transition from the small dots to the ferning pattern. This little microscope was a wise investment and I would recommend it to anyone TTC.
Working
By Cherry on May 8, 2010
I did see the ferning on my 19th day, and it went on for 5 days. But I haven\'t got pregnant yet. I don\'t know if ovulation happens during the 5 days or 72 hours after it. So not sure. Can you give me some exact answer? Thank you.
A Miracle
By Mindy on April 29, 2010
I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, with very few and unpredictable cyles per year. We tried to conceive on our own for 18 months, then with fertility drugs for 6 months. I started drinking FertiliTea and using Fertility Focus. The very first month I got pregnant, and now have a beautiful baby girl!
Thank you for these wonderful products!
It's alright
By Shannon on April 1, 2010
I purchased the ovulation microscope after spending way too much money on OPK's. I love that I can wash the lens, use, and REuse the item. It's worth the money spent. The downfall...the directions aren't clear that you need to tip the microscope at an angle to see anything. If you look straight down, the green light blinds so nothing can be seen.
Blessed
By Whitney on March 24, 2010
We order this after having months of negative pregnancy tests we order along with the pills. So amazing I started doing the saliva and it showed exactly 4 trasitional ovulation days, then 24 hour ovulation day and residual the following day. First month we are pregnant. We also talked about using the microscope as a birth control because I have a hard time with it. Thanks Fertile Focus!
Trusting God
By Ama on March 12, 2010
Am on fourth month of using this product cd 12. I thank God this product has regulated my cycle. I am trusting God something new is about to happen. I will keep you posted if I have positive BFP
It works
By Lily on February 11, 2010
I was kind of speticale on this when i first got. Im on my first round of clomid and yesterday was my last pill and i didnt see anything. I did the testing in the morning and there was nothing yet, the transtional stage. At work i did it again and i saw fern patterns everywhere!!!! its amazing! im crossing my fingers that this is the time!!!
In the 2%
By Gayle N on February 7, 2010
I believe the Fertile Focus Microscope is a good product, but it didn't (unfortunately) work for me. I used it every day for a month, and I never saw the "fern pattern" to show I was ovulating (so presumed I wasn't!) Imagine my surprise to find out that I'm pregnant at the end of that month...It is nice and small and they say "easy to use" - just think I wasn't doing it correctly!
Microscope Ovulation
By TRACEY JONES on February 6, 2010

fertile focus
By susan holliday on January 17, 2010
Ive noticed the changes throughout my cycle by using this although im still not pregnant.
Success
By Alex on December 11, 2009
After trying online fertility calenders with no success.We tried Fertile Focus and it worked!!
The trick is to use it in the morning before you eat or brush.
I recommend this product to anyone trying to get that positive result.
pregnant the first time!
By Kris on November 30, 2009
I bought this item at the end of August with attempt to conceive in October. This was our first time TTC and the fertile focus was very easy to use and easy to define the fern shapes. We got it right the first time and got pregnant in October. This really takes the guess work out of finding out your most fertile days. Would recomend to anyone trying to concieve, especially if you\'ve been having a hard time.
Not impressed
By Deeann from pa on November 9, 2009
I bought this product hoping it would help me with my cycle since I chart as well but I could not read this at all. I followed the instructions and still could not see any differnce in my sylvia. I use the Fertilaid and Fertile CM and I do like these products and I think they are woking even though I am not PG yet I am still hopefull. I was not impressed with this product. I have more luck with charting and taking my temp. Dont waste your money ladies.
I am so excited
By Shauna on November 3, 2009
I cannot believe what I am seeing. I have irregular long cycles and we have been seriously ttc for 7 months. I thought why not buy this product??? Well I started testing about cd13 and now cd20 I ovulated CLEARLY. I had to show this to everyone. I just hope we caught the egg.
I think it is REALLY easy to read. You will know when you are ovulating. I think the biggest mistake we were doing was thinking I ovulated way later then I actually did. Fun to play with too!!!!!!
I highly recommend you ladies buy this!
ovulation test
By jasmine on October 12, 2009
it works well but you have to try to do it twice a day so that you can monitor your ovulation closely.
Loved it
By Candace on September 15, 2009
This product worked for me with my last two pregnancies. It\'s hard to read during the transition stage, but very easy to read during ovulation. I got pregnant a month after I started using this product
One try and success!!
By Alicia on July 8, 2009
Worked the very first time it said I was fertile!! Well worth the small price after 6 months of trying!!
Microscope
By Katie Fermin on June 17, 2009
The microscope was good. I more questions about the product than what was explained in the instruction though, but other than that... It was great
2 for 2
By Jen on June 2, 2009
We tried to get pregnant with our first child for 7 months without success. Finally I purchased the fertile focus and got pregnant the first try! We just decided to have a second child and conceived on the first try with the fertile focus again. Thank you! I think this was the best purchase we ever made. :)
It works sometimes
By Lisa on May 7, 2009
when i first recieved this item it was kind of difficult to use. Sometimes i had to re-test because no results showed up at all. But when it does actual works you see the difference.
Excellent Product
By Jennifer on April 1, 2009
When my husband and I first TTC we thought it would be easy, but when things weren't working we got concerned. I have never tracked my fertility before so we thought the only way to do this was by peeing on the ovulation sticks which is not only messy it is expensive because you have to buy new ones every month. When I learned about this microscope I thought what the heck we may as well try it if it works we will be saving money and it looks easy to use. The first few times of using it were confusing, but now that I've actually seen an ovulation cycle the differences are much easier to decipher.
l can see my ovulation
By Josee on March 13, 2009
l could never predict my ovulation but with the microscope, it is so evident. Clear and easy to use too.
l recommand it strongly
Josée
very confusing
By Lisa on March 12, 2009
This product shows that I'm Fertle almost every week, including when I have my period. So either I'm super fertle or I'm doing something wrong, either way I'm still not pregnant!
Excellent
By Alecia on March 11, 2009
i just recieved my fertilaid for women and my fertile focus.. i was so amazed because of the accuracy.... i have been trying for 2 years now with one misscarrage. Well ill keep you guys updated on the results.
WE ARE PREGNANT!!!
By Ericka on February 9, 2009
I am so pleased with Fertile-Focus. We had been trying for almost a year when I decided to give the microscope a try. Within one cycle of use, we were pregnant.
I tried the ovul sticks and basal thermos and they just weren't doing it for me. The scope was easy to use every morning. I kept it in the medicine cabinet and noticed the pattern changes, which guided us on the best time to be intimate.
Hooray for Fertile-Focus!
Hard to Read
By Marcella on January 4, 2009
This product is interesting and somewhat useful. But the results are not very clear or easy to read. Sometimes it shows "ferning" at obviously non-fertile times. Sometimes a whole cycle will go by without showing any "ferning". Sometimes the results could be accurate, but too much is left to interpretation.
Product works exactly as described
By Genevieve on January 2, 2009
This product enables me to know when I am ovulating, and also when my period is three days away. Easy to use, well worth the investment.
Super!
By Sara on December 24, 2008
I had been trying to conceive for 9 months, and got pregnant the first month that I used the ovulation microscope. I can't believe it!
Best Product in market

Focus Ovulation Microscope
By Carmen on December 3, 2008
I really like this product. There's no mess.
Great Product
By Cassie on November 14, 2008
I just started using Fertile Focus and am very pleased with how well it works. At first I wasn't seeing anything and was skeptical, but once I became fertile, I definitely could see the crystal patterns. I highly recommend this product.
Great product!!!!
By Rita on September 18, 2008
I live in Mexico and I just receive my fertile focus and it is great!!!!, it´s easy and fun to use and I reallly know when I was "ferning". Keep my fingers cross for the next month
convenient great product
By Colleen on September 17, 2008
GREAT invention, the ferning is easy to read, with quick results and discreet testing at any time of the day. The BEST part about it is its reusable, unlike other ovulation testers similar to pregnancy tests, use once and throw away - AND its incredibly affordable!
I bought this product 3 times so far, thanks to the first one I got pregnant with our now 2 year old daughter, then gave it to my friend who is now due with her second child! I bought another one, and my daughter threw it across the room and the lense fell off (my stupidity though, do NOT try to superglue it back on, the fumes from the glue sticks permanently to the inside of the lense and its useless now), so now I just bought #3 and we're trying for our second child now... Even if you're not trying to conceive, its a great tool to help you record your ovulation days for future reference.
