摘要:
Method for determining the onset of the fertile period of a human female comprising the step of monitoring the axillary secretions of said female during the course of her menstrual cycle to determine variations in the concentration of androstenol or dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate. A first significant increase in the concentration of either of those compounds following the cessation of menses is indicative of the onset of the fertile period. In each case, a follicular phase peak occurs which exceeds by at least twice the concentration of those compounds present at any other time during the menstrual cycle. As a result, the monitoring of these compounds may act as reliable indicators predicting the occurrence of ovulation in five to seven days, and/or indicating the onset of the fertile period at a time when appropriate contraceptive measures can still be taken to avoid pregnancy or sexual intercourse can promote fertility.

摘要:
A novel method is provided for precisely predicting and then ascertaining the time of ovulation by monitoring the mouth air of a female, a first peak after menses in the concentration of said volatile sulfur-containing compounds in said mouth air predicting ovulation by about 5 to 7 days, and a second increase thereafter being indicative of ovulation. Alternatively, a method is provided wherein TPTZ is utilized to sense secondary characteristics associated with the production of volatile sulfur compounds for the purpose of providing a simple colorimetric home test for determining the precise time of ovulation.

Method for precisely ascertaining the time of ovulation by monitoring the concentration of alcohols in the range of C.sub.10 -C.sub.16, particularly dodecanol. A spike in the concentration of such compound(s) is indicative of time of ovulation.
