ive seen surge wrote on loads of ppl questions????what does it mean:)
Answer:
Q: How long after my LH surge should I ovulate?
A: Most people will ovulate 12-48 hours after the LH surge is detected, most common is 36 hours after the actual surge. One should get a bit more notice, 24-48 hours, by testing in the afternoon.
Q: Once I detect my LH surge, when should I have intercourse?
A: It's ideal to have intercourse the day of the LH surge and the two days after. Also consider “insurance” sex for one more day in case you ovulate late. Perfect timing would be to have had intercourse the day before the LH surge as well, but that can be hard to predict for those with an irregular cycle. If you don't know when you might ovulate, having sex every other day from cycle day 10 through a positive OPK. If you’re taking your basal body temperature, you should have sex through the first day of your temp rise to make sure you cover all days (though after the rise is usually too late).
Q: How long after my LH surge should I’ve my insemination?
A: Most doctors will do an intra-uterine insemination (IUI) the day after the LH surge, or about 36 hours after it is detected. With a vaginal insemination, or an intra-cervical insemination (ICI) in someone with good fertile mucus, the day of the surge may be preferable. Many doctors are now doing two inseminations per cycle.
Answer:
They’re referring to a surge (increase) of lutenizing hormone (LH) that a woman gets right before ovulation. This surge can be detected using ovulation prediction kits (opks). Typically a woman will ovulation 12-48 hours after her LH surge. So using the kits to detect this will help a woman to determine her fertile days when trying to get pregnant.
