Kara Ovulation Test https://www.pharmacyanseo.ie/product/kara-ovulation-test/ Mon, 20 Nov 2023 20:10:32 +0000 https://www.pharmacyanseo.ie/?post_type=product&p=62439 The Kara Rapid Home Ovulation test works by detecting the surge in luteinizing hormone (LH) levels in a woman’s body, which typically occurs one to two days before ovulation. This surge triggers the release of an egg from the ovary, making it the ideal time for conception.

To take the test, the test dipstick which is coated with antibodies that react to the LH hormone is placed in a container of collected urine for 10-15 seconds. After 5 minutes the test dipstick is then evaluated for the appearance of lines, which indicate the level of LH in the urine.

If the LH surge is detected, the user can predict that ovulation will occur within the next 12-36 hours, making it a good time to try and conceive. By tracking the LH surge, women can better understand their menstrual cycles to increase their chances of getting pregnant or as a form of birth control

It is specially formulated to help support healthy conception for women who are trying for a baby and provides the ultimate ‘before pregnancy’ support in the Pregnacare range.

    Expert nutrition for when trying for a baby

    Preparing your body and ensuring you have a healthy diet and lifestyle to maximise your chances of conception are important factors when you decide to plan for a baby. Pregnacare Conception Max formula has been developed on the basis of worldwide studies showing that certain nutrients can play an important role in helping to build nutritional stores ready for pregnancy and support good reproductive health.

    Pregnacare Conception Max provides L-Methylfolate, an advanced form of folic acid, plus a high purity Omega-3 fish oil capsule providing essential fatty acids DHA and EPA.  The advanced, carefully balanced, formulation provides increased levels of nutrients compared to Pregnacare Conception: Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Selenium, Magnesium, Coenzyme Q10, N-Acetyl Cysteine and Inositol. It also includes zinc which is scientifically proven to contribute to normal fertility and reproduction.

    Ideal for all women to help build nutritional stores before conception.

    Nutrient formula free from drugs & hormones.

    Advanced form of Folic Acid

    Pregnacare Conception Max includes L-Methylfolate, a more advanced, bioavailable form of folic acid.  The advanced formulation provides 400µg folic acid, the exact level recommended by the Department of Health for all women who are trying to conceive. Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status*. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus. As well as playing a role in the process of cell division, folic acid also contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.

    Omega-3 Essential Fatty Acids

    Essential fatty acids play important roles in the body, but the body cannot make them so they must come from the diet. Research increasingly shows the importance of essential fatty acids in the development of babies and infants. Before and during pregnancy it is recommended to limit intake of oily fish due to potentially detrimental levels of mercury and pollutant contamination. A purified fish oil supplement is a good solution.

    Pregnacare Conception Max includes a high purity Omega-3 capsule which provides DHA and EPA essential fatty acids.  During pregnancy maternal intake of DHA contributes to normal foetal brain and eye development.**

    The high quality capsules provide GMP grade fish oil, certified for sustainability by Friend of the Sea.

    Female reproductive health

    Certain nutrients can play a role in helping support reproductive health in women. Pregnacare Conception Max includes zinc which is scientifically proven to contribute to normal fertility and reproduction whilst vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity. Recent research using Pregnacare looked at the effect of vitamin D supplementation on vitamin D status in pregnant women (Alhomaid et al. Effect of vitamin D supplementation on vitamin D status in pregnant women: Findings from the MO-VITD study. Proceedings of the Nutrition Society, 2020.)Based on this latest scientific research, Pregnacare Conception Max, includes 25µg Vitamin D. The formula also includes vitamin B12, iron, magnesium and vitamin D which have a role in the process of cell division.

    All-round nutritional support

    Pregnacare Conception Max provides all round support with additional nutrients including biotin & copper which contribute to normal energy release and iron which contributes to the normal function of the immune system & normal formation of red blood cells and haemoglobin. Vitamins B6 & B12 are also important to help maintain the normal functioning of the nervous system. The formula also includes other key nutrients; Coenzyme Q10, Inositol, N-Acetyl Cysteine and Betacarotene.

    Also available for him: Wellman Conception.

    The Monthly Cycle & Conception

    Did you know that some women can experience irregular cycles when coming off the contraceptive pill, which can last up to six months? The menstrual cycle can also be disturbed by weight loss, weight gain, excessive amount of exercise, physical or emotional upset. More Information (link to https://www.vitabiotics.com/blogs/news/regularity-of-the-monthly-cycle-conception)

    Pregnacare Conception Max is a nutrient based, scientifically researched formula without any drugs or hormones. It contains no ingredients known to cause irregularity in the monthly cycle.

    If you experience a delay or change in your monthly cycle, this may not necessarily mean you are pregnant, and it is advised to take a pregnancy test and speak to your doctor or health professional.

    *The beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental folic acid daily intake of 400µg for at least one month before and up to three months after conception.

    Expert nutrition for mother and baby

    Pregnacare prenatal supplement is the most popular and trusted by mums to safeguard the diet of those who are planning for pregnancy or are already pregnant. A scientifically developed formulation of 19 important vitamins and minerals, Pregnacare contains 400µg folic acid and 10µg vitamin D, as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Pregnacare has been carefully developed by experts so that all ingredient levels are within safe levels for pregnancy and are moderate rather than excessive.

    Recommended level of folic acid & vitamin D

    The UK Department of Health recommends women planning a baby should take a supplement containing 400µg of folic acid from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy. This is the exact amount of folic acid contained in Pregnacare. Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status†. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus.Folic Acid is also beneficial beyond 12 weeks as it contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy.

    Important: Some pregnancy formulas do not include the exact 10 µg vitamin D, as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding.

    More than folic acid alone – with B12 and key minerals

    Many studies show the importance of ensuring the correct intake of various vitamins and minerals throughout the entire pregnancy and as part of an aftercare plan. Pregnacare provides a range of nutrients for overall support, all at sensible, carefully balanced levels, including vitamins B2, B6 and B12 which contribute to normal red blood cell formation.

    Pregnacare avoids high dose iron which is not recommended

    Unlike many prenatal iron supplements, Pregnacare has been specifically formulated with an ideal, moderate level of iron. High levels of iron are not recommended unless there is a particular requirement as identified by your healthcare professional.

    Before conception

    Pregnacare is recommended before conception to build up the stores of nutrients such as iron in women who are trying for a baby. Good nutrition is important to help prepare a woman’s body for the additional demands placed on it during pregnancy. Certain nutrients, like folic acid, vitamin B12 and zinc are also of particular importance from the very first moment of conception. Zinc contributes to normal fertility and reproduction whilst vitamin B12 contributes to normal red blood cell formation and also has a role in the process of cell division.

    For all of pregnancy

    Good nutritional intake is vital throughout pregnancy, not just the first 12 weeks. Pregnacare provides essential nutrients throughout pregnancy including folic acid which plays an important role during the full nine months and contributes to normal blood formation. You can start taking Pregnacare at any point during pregnancy.

    Specially formulated by experts

    Pregnacare has been formulated by experts to help safeguard a mother’s diet during pregnancy. It provides a comprehensive spectrum of essential nutrients at carefully chosen safe levels, developed on the basis of international research. It has always contained the recommended level of 400µg folic acid**. Pregnacare is proud to work in partnership with the Royal College of Midwives to support the health of mothers and babies by raising awareness of the benefits of good nutrition.

     

    †The beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental folic acid daily intake of 400mcg for at least one month before and up to three months after conception.

    ** Folic acid contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy. Pregnacare has always contained 400mcg folic acid, the level recommended for all women from the start of trying to conceive until the 12th week of pregnancy.

    Even greater nutritional care for mother and baby

    Pregnacare Plus dual pack provides the original fully comprehensive multivitamin tablet, which delivers the essential nutrients for pregnancy including the recommended level of 400µg folic acid and 10 µg vitamin D as advised by the UK Department of Health D during pregnancy and breast-feeding, plus an additional Omega-3 capsule to provide a rich source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) which contributes to normal brain and eye development of the foetus**.

    Important: Some pregnancy formulas do not include the exact 10 µg vitamin D, as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding.

    Pregnacare Plus has been specially developed so that mothers-to-be can safeguard their extra dietary requirements, without confusion about which supplements to take.

    Pregnacare Plus Provides

    Pregnacare multi-nutrient tablets with 400µg Folic Acid

    Pregnacare Tablets contain a careful formulation of 19 nutrients important for both mother and baby. Pregnacare has been carefully developed by experts so that all ingredient levels are within safe levels for pregnancy and are moderate rather than excessive. These include vitamin B12, plus vitamin D and folic acid at the exact level recommended for the development of the unborn baby. Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status†. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus.

    Omega-3 capsules with 300mg DHA

    The capsules contain high purity fish oil, which are a rich source of the important Omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA. DHA is especially important during pregnancy as it contributes to normal brain and eye development of the foetus**.

    One Pregnacare Omega-3 capsule per day provides 300 mg DHA, the exact level recommended by international experts in lipid nutrition*** for pregnant and lactating women, plus 60mg EPA.

    The Pregnacare Plus Omega 3 capsule contains the purest pharmaceutical grade fish oil, certified for sustainability by Friend of the Sea. The capsules do not contain fish oil sourced from tuna, shark, marlin or swordfish. The UK FSA advises pregnant women, and women intending to become pregnant to avoid shark, marlin and swordfish and not to eat large amounts of tuna.

    Vitamin D in Pregnancy

    The UK Department of Health advises a supplement of 10µg vitamin D during pregnancy and breast-feeding, which is the exact amount found in Pregnacare.

    Vitamin E in Pregnancy

    Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. Pregnacare contains a low recommended dietary intake of 4mg. This is present in the natural form which is better absorbed by the mother than synthetic vitamin E.

    The Importance of Omega-3 fatty acids

    Adults can obtain DHA and EPA indirectly through the conversion of the essential fatty acid alpha-linoleic acid (ALA), present in vegetable oils such as linseed but this process is very inefficient. Fish oils provide a much more reliable, direct source of DHA and EPA. The foetus and infant in early life need to receive these fatty acids directly as they only have a limited capability to convert essential fatty acids to more active long chain fatty acids such as DHA.

    Brain and eye development

    DHA is the predominant fatty acid in the central nervous system, found in the structural walls of brain cells. Amazingly, the foetal brain is made up of 60% fats of which 40% is DHA. There is a large increase in DHA uptake by the foetus and a corresponding increase in cerebral DHA content during the last trimester of pregnancy and the first post natal months.1,2 At birth the baby’s brain weight is about 70% of an adult’s brain weight; 15% of brain growth occurs during infancy and the pre-school years.

    DHA is important throughout this period of development.3 DHA is found in even greater concentrations in the retina, where it contributes up to 60% of the fatty acid content.

    Maintaining Maternal Health

    During pregnancy, the growing foetus and placenta can increase certain maternal nutritional requirements. As it can be difficult to maintain this requirement through diet alone. Pregnacare is proud to work in partnership with the Royal College of Midwives to support the health of mothers and babies by raising awareness of the benefits of good nutrition.

    Quality and purity guaranteed

    What the mother consumes has the potential to be passed on to the developing child, therefore only the purest pharmaceutical grade fish oil, has been used in Pregnacare Plus capsules. To ensure maximum benefit the oil is carefully concentrated to increase its DHA and EPA content and further purified. Each batch is rigorously tested, certified, and fully compliant with stringent EC and WHO rules on environmental pollutants.

    Natural lemon oil is included in the shell of Pregnacare Plus capsules as an odour-mask for women who find it difficult to take fish oil supplements.

     

    ** A beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200mg DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids for adults.

    †The beneficial effect is obtained with a supplemental folic acid daily intake of 400mcg for at least one month before and up to three months after conception.

    A healthy, varied diet is vital for new mothers, to help produce nutritious breast milk and maintain their own health during the postnatal period. Maternal breast-feeding is strongly recommended for the newborn baby as it provides essential nutrients and antibodies for long term health. Pregnacare Breast-feeding is an all-in-one pack, formulated with key specific ingredients for the postnatal period, including essential fatty acids such as DHA.

    Why take Pregnacare Breast-feeding?

    The formula provides the ideal follow-on product for mums after childbirth, as part of the complete Pregnacare range from conception to breast-feeding.

    Pregnacare Breast-feeding is carefully formulated by experts, with essential vitamins, minerals and DHA, to help support all-round health and vitality including iron which contributes to normal energy release.

    Pregnacare Breast-feeding can also be taken as a general postnatal supplement for 6-9 months following childbirth or longer if required, to replace depleted nutrients and assist the body following pregnancy, even if you are not breast-feeding.

    For mothers who avoid dairy products, the formula also contains calcium which is needed for the maintenance of normal bones.

    Pregnacare Breast-feeding contains 10mcg vitamin D as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding, the full RNI of 700mg calcium and 300mg DHA, the exact level recommended by international experts*.

    Careful support without excessive levels

    Pregnacare Breast-feeding has been specially formulated by experts to provide sensible, balanced levels of vitamins and minerals. All ingredients have been included on the basis of scientific research with ideal amounts for breast-feeding.

    Pregnacare Breast-feeding provides:

    -Postnatal micronutrient tablets

    700mg calcium, vitamin K & D and magnesium which contribute to the maintenance of normal bones.
    Vitamin B6, niacin (vit. B3), iron and magnesium which contribute to normal energy release.
    Includes 10mcg vitamin D the exact level as advised by the UK Department of Health during pregnancy and breast-feeding.

    – High Purity Omega-3 capsule
    Each capsule provides 300mg DHA, the level recommended by international experts for mums during lactation*.

    Maternal intake of DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) contributes to the normal brain and eye development of breast-fed infants**. Infants have limited capability to synthesize fatty acids, which therefore must be obtained direct from external sources such as the mother’s milk.
    During breast-feeding, the infant’s brain continues to take up DHA and 15% of brain growth occurs after birth.
    Contains the purest pharmaceutical grade fish oil, certified for sustainability by Friend of the Sea.

    *Journal of the American College of Nutrition, Vol. 18, No. 5, 487-489 (1999)

    ** A beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200mg DHA in addition to the recommended daily intake of omega-3 fatty acids for adults.

    In every cycle there are only a few days when a woman can conceive, so having sex on these days is very important if you are trying to get pregnant. The Clearblue® Advanced Digital Ovulation Test is the first and ONLY test that typically identifies 4 or more fertile days each cycle. It tracks 2 key fertility hormones to identify your High AND Peak fertility days, so you can plan ahead and have more opportunities to get pregnant.

    Identifies typically 4 or more fertile days
    By identifying more fertile days before ovulation than any with other ovulation test, you have more opportunities to get pregnant and can plan ahead to spend quality time with your partner.

    Tracks 2 key fertility hormones
    It’s the only ovulation test to accurately track not only luteinising hormone, but also estrogen to identify your wider fertility window.

    Smart technology and clear digital results
    With its unique algorithm, the test adapts to your personal hormone profile, so you are less likely to miss your fertile days. The clear digital display gives you a Clearblue® smiley face when it identifies your best days to get pregnant so you know your body is ready.

    Only brand with a re-usable reader
    If you have ovulation test sticks left after detecting your first LH surge then you can use them with the same test holder to identify your fertile days next cycle, if you’re not already pregnant.

    It works differently to other ovulation tests
    Clearblue® Advanced Digital Ovulation Test works differently to other ovulation tests as it is designed to detect 2 hormones, estrogen and LH. When it detects a rise in your level of estrogen it displays High Fertility (flashing smiley face), and will continue to display High Fertility in the following days whilst it looks for your LH surge. When your LH surge is detected, the test displays Peak Fertility (static smiley face).
