FAQ
What should I do if my Sensor is damaged or lost?
If your Sensor stops working, either because it is damaged or
faulty, the OvuSense Reader will provide you with a message
(as indicated in
Section 6.2
). In this case you should contact
Service, as outlined in the
User Assistance Section
on the
back page of this manual. If the Sensor is still within its 1 year
lifespan, Fertility Focus will replace the damaged or faulty
Sensor free of charge. If you lose the Sensor, then you will
need to purchase another one.
Why do I need to replace the Sensor after 1 year?
The Sensor is designed for optimum hygiene, and to be used
specifically for 1 year to provide an initial analysis of your
ovulatory pattern. If your ovulation timing is irregular or you
are not ovulating on two or more of three consecutive cycles,
then you should seek further clinical advice. That advice
may lead to treatment with ovulatory stimulating drugs and/
or intrauterine insemination (IUI) and OvuSense can be used
during that treatment phase by purchasing another Sensor. If
your ovulation timing is regular, purchasing another Sensor
will allow you to carry on using OvuSense to manage the
timing of trying to get pregnant.
Do I need to use the Sensor for consecutive cycles?
OvuSense can provide you with valuable results straight
away, and continued use will improve your knowledge of
your individual ovulatory pattern. If ovulation is not detected
in a particular cycle, it's quite important to continue use to
establish if this is a regular problem or like most women you
occasionally miss an ovulation.
