Why is the ovulation test strip always negative during ovulation period?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Why is the ovulation test always negative during ovulation period?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to combine it with an ultrasound examination to check for the presence of mature follicles. Moreover, ovulation monitoring should be conducted for several days, and it should be done at the same time every day. Do not drink a lot of water one hour before the examination. A delay of one week in the menstrual cycle is considered a normal phenomenon. Of course, if there has been sexual activity, you can check blood and urine hCG, ultrasound, and other tests one week after the menstrual cycle is delayed to see if you are pregnant. Menstrual delay should also be considered due to factors such as poor rest, nervousness, gynecological inflammation, and endocrine disorders, all of which can lead to menstrual delay. It is recommended to go to the hospital for tests of six sex hormones and ultrasound. Do not take medication blindly. Once the cause is identified, targeted treatment should be administered.
