LH Ovulation Testing at Work

[MaisieRP98]

Hi! First post on here. Fiancé and I are about to start cycle 9 of TTC and have decided that I will be taking LH Ovulation tests every day.

Advice everywhere is that the best time to do the test is in the afternoon and to NOT use first morning pee.

My problem is, I attend university every Monday and I work in the office every Thursday and Friday.

Collecting a urine sample on those days isn't a problem, but I'm struggling to think of ways I can leave the test on a flat surface for 10-15 minutes without having a pee stick just out in the open.

Trying to keep TTC a secret so having it in a tupperware pot on my desk isn't ideal.

Has anyone else had this problem/ have any suggestions on what I can do??

Thanks x

Hello! I actually did an ovulation test at work the other day and I just laid it flat in my bag and then checked it when it was time, not ideal but it was fine!

Ahh okay, was concerned about it getting ruined in a bag BUT fiancé had an idea earlier that I could put the test back in the foil packet then sandwich it inside a book?? And then lay it flat in my bag maybe??? This is such a faff, you would have thought they'd already be advice about this online but can't find any! Thank you for the reply ☺️ x

@MaisieRP98 yes that's what I did, put it back in the foil and sort of balanced it on something 😂 not ideal but I'm glad I did it as it caught my peak that day haha

I find it easy at work. It takes 5 min for the results to be put into app, so I spend 5 min in the toilet and that’s it.
