A typical ovulation kit detects the level of luteinizing hormone in your urine.  The hormone is one of the hormones that indicate the ovaries to release an ovum.  The surge of this hormone occurs 36 hours before your ovulation.  Ovulation kits do not detect this until 24 hour prior.  If you have a normal 28 day cycle, it is best to check your hormone levels nine or ten days after the start of your monthly period in order not to miss the surge.

Another point to remember is to have frequent sex.  This is very basic but is often taken for granted by couples due to other commitments.  If you have a busy week, schedule some time with your partner and match it with your cycle.  You should also keep sex fun and not treat it as task.  Also, you have to do away with habits that could interfere with the conception.  Give it time and soon you will have what you wish for.
