As I am sure you are aware a woman's fertility starts to decline after she gets to 30 but what you probably did
not know is that the hormone F.S.H. (follicle stimulating hormone)
is intimately involved with a woman's fertility and rising levels
tend to be associated with reduced fertility. F.S.H. is the hormone
that maintains the regular function of your ovaries and sex hormones it is a useful aid to assessing your fertility.
This test is especially useful for women with irregular
cycles and women aged 30 or over.
2 tests are included and if both test results are positive it is
an indicator of reduced fertility.

The hormone F.S.H. can be raised in women with irregular
periods and will steadily rise as a woman gets older. As menopause approaches the levels get particularly high and act as an early warning
system. With this test a negative result is going to be good news although
its not proof of fertility. A positive test result suggests your fertility
is reduced and we recommend that you see your doctor to discuss the results
and perhaps have more tests done.
When do you use the Test ?
The first morning urine is recommended because it contains
the highest levels of F.S.H. Testing at any other time of the day may
give false negative test results.
How do you use the Test?
Precautions:
Read all instructions carefully before performing the
test.
Do not use after the expiration date on the foil pouch.
Store in a dry place place, do not freeze.
Keep out of the reach of children.
Do not open the foil pouch until you are ready to begin testing.
Do not use if the foil pouch has been opened or damaged.
When to test
The test can be taken at any time during the month and then the second test should be taken 1 week later. We recommend that you test using first morning urine as it contains the most hormone and so will give a more accurate result.
Instructions
When ready to urinate remove
the test stick from the foil pouch. Discard the foil packet.
Remove the protective pink cap from the test stick
to expose the absorbent tip. Do not throw the cap
away.
Hold the test stick by the
thumb grip with the exposed absorbent tip pointing downwards and place
directly into the urine stream for at least 10 seconds, until it is
thoroughly wet. Do not urinate on the control or result window.
If you prefer you may urinate into a clean cup then immerse the absorbent
tip into the urine for 10-15 seconds.
Remove the test from the urine
stream and replace the protective cap over the wet absorbent tip.
Lay the test stick on a clean,
even surface with the viewing windows facing upwards, while you wait
for the result. You may notice a pink colour moving
across the windows as the test begins to work.
Wait three minutes before reading the result.
A pink/purple line should form
in the small square window, this is the control window and indicates
that the test is complete and working properly. If a line does not appear
in the control window, the test is invalid.
Results
Do not read the results after 10 minutes.
Positive
A pink/purple line in the circular
window (test window) whose colour intensity is of equal or greater colour
intensity (darker) than the line in the square window (control).
Negative
If only one coloured line appears in the square window
(control) the result is negative. If a second band (the test band) appears
below the first line, which is lighter than the first line, then the result
is also negative.
Invalid
If no coloured lines appear in either window or a line appears in the test window but not the control band then the test is invalid and you should repeat using a new test.
What should I do with my results?
If the test result is positive, repeat the test one week
later using the second dipstick to confirm the result. F.S.H. elevates
for short periods in normal cycles but it is the extended elevation of
F.S.H., which could indicate pre-menopausal state. If the second test
is also positive you should make an appointment to visit your doctor.
A positive result means that F.S.H.
levels are high, this can be an indicator of a pre-menopausal state and if symptoms such as irregular periods, hot flushes,
mood swings, insomnia and fatigue exist, you should discuss your results
and symptoms with your doctor.
A Negative Test result indicates that your F.S.H.
levels are not raised. However, if you do have irregular periods or any
menopause-like symptoms we still recommend you see your doctor.
The male must produce a sufficient number
of normal, actively moving sperm in order to achieve conception and according to he World Health Organisation a man needs 20 million sperm per mL to be
considered fertile. The Babystart™ Home Test is a unique home test that
will identify whether a mans sperm concentration is greater or less than
20 million per mL. A positive result is going to be good news although
its not proof of fertility. There are many reasons why a man may be infertile, that is unable to father a child. One important reason is a low amount of sperm in semen. Other reasons could be inactive or incompletely formed sperm cells, high levels of other cells in the semen that interfere with fertilization, or other factors. Medical or physical conditions including stress, high fever, experienced within 2 months prior to testing, exercise, traveling and changes in diet can all have an effect. Your doctor can explain all this to you.
A negative result is not all bad news because
it saves you months of trying to have a baby - in this case we suggest
you get along to the doctor for professional help and advice.
This test can help to identify the potential of male fertility
in the privacy of your home.
How Does it Work?
The Babystart™ Home Diagnostic Screening Test Kit is a rapid
test of sperm concentration in semen. It will measure sperm either as
being above or below the recognised cut-off level of 20 million sperm
cells per milliLitre (ml) recommended by the World Health Organisation
(WHO). Two test results of less than 20 million per ml are an indicator
of male infertility.
The Test kit works by staining the sperm cells in the semen
sample to produce a blue colour.
How long should ejaculation be avoided before performing
the test?
The man MUST abstain from ejaculation for at least 3 days but no longer than 7 days before doing
each test.
Instructions and use
Read all instructions thoroughly
before performing the test.
Colour blindness and improper lighting may affect
interpretation of test results.
This test kit will perform 2 tests. Perform both
tests 3-7 days apart to obtain final result.
This kit is intended for one user only.
Do not use after the expiry date on the box.
Note: Semen sample
Freshly ejaculated semen is gel-like in consistency
but over time (usually 1 hour or longer) the sample thins to a more liquid
consistency. Only once the semen is thinned should the semen sample be
used for testing. The plastic cup contained within the test will help
make the semen liquefy quicker.
Test Cassette:
The test cassette contains 4 wells labeled A,B,C and D. Wells A and C are blue in colour. This is the colour to which you will compare your test results.Test wells B and D are white in colour, these are the 2 test wells where you place your liquefied semen sample.
What does this test involve?
First collect a semen sample. The semen sample
should be collected directly into the plastic cup provided by masturbation. Avoid touching the inside of the collection cup.
Place on the provided lid and swirl
the contents around the cup gently, at least 10 times.Wait at least 15 minutes but not longer
than 12 hours before testing the sample. Just before testing,
swirl the cup contents again several times.
Open the foil pouch by tearing or cutting
at the top. Remove the contents and place the test cassette on a flat
surface with the sample wells facing upwards.
Swirl the semen sample in the plastic cup before
removing the lid. Place the angled tip of the provided plastic dropper
into the semen sample and squeeze the dropper at its midpoint. Release
the pressure slowly and as you do this semen will be drawn into the
dropper.
Remove the dropper from the semen sample and gently
squeezing the dropper add ONE drop of semen to the Test Well B of the
testing cassette. Let the drop soak in for at least one minute.
Once the semen has soaked in, this usually only
takes seconds, add TWO drops of BLUE solution (in the provided bottle)
to the same Test Well B. Let the drops soak in for at least one minute.
When the blue liquid has soaked in, add
TWO drops of
the CLEAR solution (in the provided bottle) to the TEST Well B. Let
the drops soak in for at least one minute. READ the test results within
5 minutes of this step.
Reading the TEST Results:
Compare the colour intensity of Test Well B with the colour
of Well A or C (Reference Wells).
POSITIVE TEST: If the blue colour in Test Well B is as
dark or darker than the colour in Reference Well A, this is a positive
result. This means the sperm count is equal to or greater than 20 million
per ml.
NEGATIVE TEST: If the blue colour in Test Well B is lighter
than the colour in the Reference Well A, this is a negative result, this
means the sperm count is less than 20 million per ml.
Note: If no colour appears, you may have made an error in adding the sample or solutions. Use the second test well or obtain another kit.
After completing the first test, return the solution bottles and cassette to the foil pouch and seal. The blue solution is light sensitive and so should not be left out of the pouch for prolonged periods.
Second Test:
Repeat the same test, using the same cassette, the test
should be carried out at least 3 days later but not more than 7 days after
the first test. Follow all the instructions again but use Test Well D
and compare to Reference Well C. If both tests were positive then your
sperm count is equal to or greater than 20 million per mL. However, if
either or both of the tests were negative then we recommend you consult
your doctor with a view to having a full semen analysis performed.
The results of the second test should be the same as the first test. If the results are different, wait 10 weeks and repeat the tests with a new kit.
How accurate is this test?
Overall accuracy of the test results is 97%. This means
that 97% of the time, home users will be correct in either a positive
or a negative reading. Performing 2 tests and obtaining the same result
each time (positive or negative) will provide greater assurance of accurate
results. The firm conclusion is that the Babystart™ Home Diagnostic Screening
Test Kit technology gives highly accurate and reliable results when used
by home users.
Questions and Answers
