Double Your Fertility IQ
The OvaCue Fertility Monitor consists of a hand-held fertility monitor with a color screen, and TWO sensors – a saliva sensor, and a cervical mucus sensor – the ideal combination for pinpointing your most fertile days in your cycle and for confirming when ovulation occurred. Take the guesswork out of your fertility by seamlessly reading and tracking your body’s biology clues with the OvaCue Fertility Monitor and companion website, OvaGraph. Women who know when they are fertile have a higher chance of getting pregnant during that cycle. Don’t let another month pass you by!

How It Works
The OvaCue is a monitor that measures changes in the electrolyte levels in your saliva and cervical mucus that are impacted by the hormone estrogen. Simply place the oral sensor on your tongue daily and the OvaCue will record a reading of the electrolyte resistance in your saliva. The monitor will track trends in these readings, looking to identify a specific trend (called the “Cue Peak) that marks the beginning of your fertile window. Once this trend is detected, the monitor will color-in the calendar with varying shades of blue (from light to dark), indicating low to peak fertility, and providing 5-7 days advance notice of ovulation. With several days advance notice of ovulation, you are able to increase your chances of conception. The OvaCue keeps track of your current cycle day and current fertility status — and it stores up to 4 months of readings.
Once you begin use of the vaginal sensor, the monitor is able to track trends in the vaginal readings to determine when your body switches from estrogen dominance to progesterone dominance, the clue it uses to confirm that ovulation occurred.* As you move through your fertile window, signified by the blue days on the calendar, the monitor will be tracking the vaginal readings closely so that it can detect the trend it is looking for to confirm ovulation. Once this trend is detected, the monitor will display a pink box, indicating “possible ovulation”. In some cases, depending on the specific hormonal fluctuations of the user, the monitor will also display a purple box two or more days following the pink box, which also indicates “possible ovulation.” Please note that when both a pink and purple box are displayed on the calendar during a cycle, interpretation of actual reading data may be required to determine whether ovulation occurred with the pink box or with the purple box.
*Note: Vaginal ultrasound is the only method available that confirms ovulation with 100% accuracy. With the OvaCue, we can detect specific trends which indicate ovulation. Even with the display of the pink or purple box, we do recommend you continue to interpret your data to confirm that ovulation occurred successfully.
Works for Irregular Cycles and PCOS and Here’s Why
The OvaCue is used successfully by women with irregular cycles and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). While other fertility monitors predict ovulation based on the attainment of a pre-determined level of a given hormone (either luteinizing hormone, estrogen, or a combination of the two), the OvaCue has no predetermined level set — rather, it interprets each reading in your cycle in relation to your previous readings. OvaCue doesn’t look for a specific reading based on statistical averages, it looks for an overall trend in your body’s own unique readings. This method of ovulation determination is particularly suitable for women with irregular cycles since a hormonal imbalance may prevent you from reaching a predetermined hormone level prior to ovulation.
For women with highly irregular cycles, it may also be necessary to interpret actual reading data (in addition to looking at the color coding on the screen of the monitor), to accurately determine your fertility status. Irregular cycles are commonly caused by hormonal imbalances. For women with a hormonal imbalance, ovulation may occur before or after the predicted time frame that the saliva sensor provides. If you happen to ovulate earlier then the oral sensor predicted — the cervical mucus sensor will be able to notify you if ovulation is actually occurring sooner. This is also the case if ovulation is occurring later than the oral reading had originally predicted.

Can I use the OvaCue if my cycles are irregular?
The OvaCue can be used by women with irregular cycles. With that said, it may be necessary for additional interpretation of your readings (instead of only relying on the color coding) to best understand the hormonal changes taking place during your cycle.

While the OvaCue Fertility Monitor is cleared by the FDA for the purpose of helping couples conceive naturally, it is not approved as a tool to prevent pregnancy or for use in Natural Family Planning.
Can I use the OvaCue if I am breastfeeding?
Only if your menstrual cycle has returned. If your cycle has not returned, the OvaCue will not be able to correctly identify your fertile window. Please note, for women who are breastfeeding, data interpretation may be necessary – therefore, we recommend you don’t rely solely on the color coding provided.

I purchased this about 7 years ago, my youngest turns 6 today! I’m currently ttc #4. I will forever use fairhaven products. If nit for this monitor, with vaginal sensor, I highly recommend getting vaginal sensor, I wouldn’t have my sweet Jackson. (I also have 12yr old twin boys) I tried for 16 months to get pregnant without using this monitor and using every other product and still was unsuccessful. I got pregnant the 2nd month with ovacue fertility monitor with sensor. Honestly, the first month was user error. Haha oops. Buy i contacted customer service and they were happy to help me. The next month I did it correctly and 9 months later had my sweet boy. I’ll forever be grateful for that! Now I’m again, ttc and I’m using nothing but fairhaven health products! Thank you Fairhaven for making something that actually works! If you’re trying to conceive, I Highly Recommend this ovacue monitor. You’ll be shocked at the results. I wasn’t ovulating anywhere near what I thought and this told me that. Anyone wanting a baby with fertility problems or someone who doesn’t ovulate regularly this is the product you’ve been waiting on. Plus their pregnancy tests are so inexpensive and are the most sensitive I’ve found other than frer and that test is expensive LOL. Good luck ladies!

My last ovacue monitor broke after having it almost 4 years. It broke this morning and I saw that there was a sale (great timing) and purchased immediately. it was as easy as a couple of clicks and less than 5 minutes. I have recommended the Ovacue monitor to many friends- very effective and works everytime.

I’m still new to using the monitor and charting period. I’m not using it to get pregnant just trying to see if I ovulate or not (although I take BCP) . I really don’t know how to read the charts and I have needed help to understand my chart with the OvaCue Specialists. Thank goodness for the free help. The device helps I think.. I had ovulation pain the same day the device showed I ovulated. Having crazy hormonal issues (PCOS being one) that tells me that it works.

When I first bought this back in 2014, I was skeptical about it since I had irregular menstrual. When it arrived, I tried it the first time and along with the clear blue ovulation kit and sure enough I got a pink for ovulation. I ovulated the week of thanksgiving and on my bday . Sometime toward the end of December I found out I was pregnant with my 5th child.
Feb/mar I found out at about 16 weeks I was pregnant with my only daughter.
Thank you ovacue, I was going to give up Ttc a baby girl. Hoping to use this for maybe my next baby.

I had been using an ovulation calendar to determine when I ovulated for the last year and couldn’t get pregnant. So I bought the ovacue and 2 months later – BAM! I’m pregnant. Turns out I ovulate earlier than the calendar indicated and ovacue helped me realize that. So happy! True thanks to god, though, where all blessings come from.

I’ve been using this product for about 15 days now. I’m nursing and using it to keep from getting pregnant. For the price, I was a little disappointed at the outdated technology. You have to toggle between fields with arrows on the monitor – a little laborious late at night or first thing in the morning when you’re taking readings. I was really hoping this would be a little easier to use than it actually is, but that might be because I’m new to it. I was charting with the Fertility Awareness Method and decided to take the plunge on this because I thought it would do the charting for me. But it doesn’t really work like that, which is also disappointing. It takes you working at it to interpret the data, which is a daunting process to start. I’m also confused by how to use the monitors. The readings change considerably if you take them back to back which makes me really wonder how accurate they are. I wish there was a little more info on that in the booklet. Not much info comes in the actual booklet. It does stress repeatedly to start on day 2 of your cycle, but doesn’t ever tell you how to know what day 2 of your cycle is. That might be a given for many of you, but for those of us new to charting, this isn’t so obvious. And I wish there was an accurate description, or diagrams, on how to actually take each reading. I don’t drink or eat or do much of anything before my readings, but the readings vary depending on how dry my tongue is (ie. the moment I wake up) or if I touch my tongue to the roof of my mouth. If the monitor is projecting based on the slightest increase/decrease of your readings, it’s questionable to me how accurate I’m getting with it if that slight a change changes my readings. The same with the vaginal reading – depending on where it’s inserted you get different readings. So if it varies that wildly, I’d just like to know EXACTLY where it’s suppose to be – diagrams would be helpful there.

Hi Jessica, thanks for your feedback on the OvaCue. We want all of our OvaCue customers to get the most out of their purchase, so we hope the following information will be helpful for you as you continue to use the monitor. First things first, it is important to state that the OvaCue isn’t cleared for sale for preventing pregnancy – as a result, our instructions for use and customer service support is intentionally aimed at helping women use the OvaCue to get pregnant, rather than to avoid pregnancy. Secondly, the OvaCue is best used when there is a definable cycle start date. So, using the OvaCue while breastfeeding, before you have seen your menstrual cycle return after giving birth, does require interpretation of the raw data to be able so see trends in the oral and vaginal readings that indicate that ovulation is coming and/or has occurred. For best results, we recommend waiting to start using the OvaCue until you have your first period after giving birth. And, if you do want to use the OvaCue before your cycle returns, then we recommend looking at the Breastfeeding Discussion forum at OvaGraph.com, or contacting our OvaCue Specialist for support in interpreting your data.
With regard to your questions about reading variability, its important to remember that the OvaCue is tracking trends in readings, looking for relative ups and downs, and not looking for readings to fall into a specific “normal” range. And, we expect there to be variability when readings are taken back to back. This is because the sensors are measuring electrolyte resistance in saliva and cervical fluid, and simply introducing the sensor can impact the quantity and characteristics of the fluid. For best results with the monitor, we recommend taking one reading only and saving that reading. There is no benefit to taking back to back readings.
And, yes, the OvaCue monitor is a little “old school” at this point. But, while the monitor itself might look a little dated, most people find the user interface intuitive and easy to navigate. And, more importantly, the algorithm that drives the predictions for the OvaCue is based on the Electrolyte Method which was developed over many decades and continues to be refined. The Electrolyte Method is a tried and true method for ovulation prediction, and is still considered leading edge technology. As for charting your readings, you can use the USB cord provided to connect your monitor to your computer and transfer your readings to OvaGraph, our free fertility charting website. Or you can also you the OvaGraph mobile app to chart your readings. If you have any trouble with either of those options, please contact our OvaCue Specialist.
And, finally, if you have any questions about how to take readings, or what your readings mean, we do hope that you will take advantage of our dedicated OvaCue customer support. Please call us M-F from 8-4pm PST at: 360-543-7888, option 2 or connect with us via email at: info@Ovagraph.com

Just started using the monitor this cycle, I am on cycle day 12, however on cycle day 10 it stated ovulation confirmed. However, I took a OPK yesterday and it stated low and then one today and it stated high. So how is it that I already ovulated when I am getting mixed signals from the monitor and the OPK?

Bedt if you allow purchaser to read directions prior to purchase. Seeing how it truly works, would have thought twice in how it does not measure anything discernable but measures trends that have to be started on certain day to measure.

Thanks for your feedback on Ovacue, Lindsey. I’m glad that it’s helping you determine when you ovulate. With PCOS, you might consider trying FertilAid for Women to see if it may help restore some regularity to your cycle. Please keep us posted.

I do have fertility issues but I have irregular cycles, which makes pinpointing ovulation hard. I am elated I conceived my first month using the Ovacue and would recommend it to family, friends, etc. without any reservations.

That’s great, Amanda – so glad to hear. That’s one of the key differences with OvaCue vs. other fertility monitors – it doesn’t require a “normal” cycle to help predict, and confirm, when ovulation takes place. Congrats on baby #3!
