Inito Fertility Monitor & Hormone Tracker for Women | Estrogen, LH, PdG (Urine Metabolite of progesterone), FSH | Predict & Confirm Ovulation | Includes 15 Test Strips (iPhone 13 Pro Max)

I’ve never written a review on Amazon and I’ve been ordering things for years. But, this monitor is AMAZING! It shows you so much about your cycle from your home. I am a home body and would prefer to not go to get my blood taken all the time to show me my results. Not only that, but it’s so easy to use. Whoever made this needs some major kudos!

Based on various methods, Inito seems accurate and it is the only way I have ever consistently tracked ovulation. And Inito tracks much more than LH surge, followed by temperature rise alone.-Confirmed LH surge with drugstore test strips. Each month I confirm my LH surge howeverI find the Inito urine (hormone) testing more reliable than temperature tracking as my temps are unstable due to frequent insomnia (circadian rhythm). I also use an app that pairs with my Oura sleep ring - and that uses body temperature to confirm ovulation after the LH surge. It works when I am sleeping well and not sick since body temperature is also disrupted when you are sick and I have been sick for nearly a month with a chest cold!A few tips:-When you get your Inito supplies read the booklet it is extremely informative about how our cycles work, particularly the timing.-Baseline: When you start out you need to do an initial urine test shortly after your period ends to give Inito a baseline for your reproductive hormones.-around LH surge and ovulation you’ll have to test several consecutive days. My most recent cycle I had to do about 10 consecutive tests. The cost of the strips adds up. Personally I am ok with the price. Pack of $15 is $49. Slight discount for bulk. Free shipping over $75. Consider the alternative, an expensive fertility clinic.-The instructions say that you need to remove your screen protector. I have an extremely thin blue light protector and I did not remove it. It’s not necessary for me to get accurate results.-Their customer service is hit or miss. When I inquired about the screen protector I got subpar customer service by email. When I called however the woman I spoke to on the phone was knowledgeable.-But the company will tell you that they recommend that you not urinate for six hours prior to testing.And for that reason they say your first urine of the day. But it need not be your first urine of the day what is most important is that you wait so that you have concentratated hormones.For me Inito works fine any time of day as long as I’ve waited about 4 hours. Your sample should look pretty dark. If you drink a lot of water that may not work for you.-The line on the urine cup provided with my test strips 2 boxes so far seems to be off the mark, a bit shallow. Didnt work well for me. I pee to the top and put the test paper a little deeper but, do not submerge!-Each time you test you have to attach the testing device to your particular model of phone. Sometimes the clip can move a little so make sure that the camera on your phone is properly aligned each time or Inito can’t read your results.-Results take about 10 minutes. Remember to not discard your pee until your status for the day is confirmed.I really enjoy reviewing my charts and seeing exactly what is happening with my reproductive hormones.With the reminders from the app, Inito is easy to use.I wish you luck and babies!

I’m so excited about the Inito Fertility Monitor! My husband and I have been trying to conceive for nearly 6 years. Two years ago, we finally got all the proper testing. But the problem is that my hormone levels are rarely where they need to be. Typically, I could only test LH at home. The rest If have to go into the doctor for.Now, I can test my estrogen, LH, FSH, and progesterone - all from home. This means no guessing as to when I’m the most fertile. It even tells you when you have high fertility or low fertility days. By using this fertility device, it also means saving on the doctors’ visits!As far as the actually device is concerned, it’s super easy to use. When you order, you’ll get the device (pictured) that has a phone clip attached. Mine arrived quickly. The size phone you have determines the clip size. You’ll need to download a free app and scan the QR code to get started. Once you register, you can start charting your hormones.It’s best to take the test with morning urine, like it is with other fertility tests. They give you a cup to pee in. When you go to take the test, it walks you through what to do - step by step! It even has a timer you can use so you have the dip stick in the urine for the right amount of time which I really like. You will need to take your phone case off to use the clip. (I mean, they can’t account for all the different sizes of phone cases.) Once you connect the inito fertility device on your phone, you’ll get a check mark on the app (if you’re going through the testing steps) that then tells you to input the dipstick (only the plastic side). If it’s inserted properly, you’ll get a check mark again and then a timer will start.The first time, I had to put in the lot number for the fertility strips but only had to do that once. There is a count down that is usually about 600 seconds (it seems) and then a quick status bar after that.Since I’m impatient, the only thing I dislike is the waiting period for the results, but I’m that way with any urine testing things.Once the app has read the results (it uses the camera on your phone to look at the test strip), it’ll tell you if you are high or low fertility. If you go to the chart and click on that day, you can see the exact numbers. After a few days of testing, you can see the direction your hormones are going.You can also track your period and baby dances in the app. There’s a community on Facebook you can join. If you need more test strips, you can order more through the app.If you’re on the fence about buying this and are TTC, get it! It’s so worth it. I highly recommend!

This is a good tools if you want to see what is going on with some of your key female hormones. Would definitely recommend! And after you get your kit, buy 1-2 extra boxes of strips from the app so you can have them on hand and not pay for rush shipping. 15-strips in the kit from Amazon won't be enough if you're curious and want to take more tests on more days than the app tells you to.My story: Me and my husband are trying to conceive. We've been to a fertility doctor and were told we were "above average" on the tests performed, I could get pregnant but had had a miscarriage and the fertility doctor's suggestion was to get artificially inseminated for $1500. My husband decided he could do it himself. ;) I also did not like that the fertility doctor didn't even ask us about our timing at ovulation so I knew I had to find a way to test that myself to make sure I was doing it right. I tried ClearBlue ovulation test strips and had a successful pregnancy that later miscarried. (I'm almost 40.)In Nov of 2022, I was still using ClearBlue ovulation test strips and that month, I never got the solid happy face to indicate that peak fertility occurred. I was worried my hormones were off but didn't know how to address that with a doctor. I saw advertisements for this device and I decided to buy it just to get an idea of the four different hormones during that time of the month because at minimum, it would be good data to provide to a different fertility doctor I planned to see. (I don't see any other competitive device on the market that offers this many hormone to be tested with one strip. That is also easy to use and doesn't get pee on your hands.)In Dec 2022, I used this tool. We did get pregnant! The tool was good enough to indicate when ovulation occurred but I never got a confirmed ovulation message because my progesterone never showed above 10. Thinking I was unsuccessful for the month of Dec and while waiting for my period, I took a few Inito tests just to see what was happening with my hormones and I noticed that my LH started to go up on days 28 through 30 (around the time the my period is supposed to start). I read somewhere online that the test strips can mistake HcG for LH. So I took a pregnancy test and it was positive! my Progesterone went above 10 three different times I took the test strips (and only one after ovulation). (I think this app uses the 10 as a gauge to confirm ovulation.)Fast forward a week or two, I now believe that the accuracy of the numbers are off for these tests. I was worried that my progesterone was low. However, on day 41, I took an Inito test in the morning and my progesterone read 5.2. Then 1-2 hours later, I went to get a blood draw and my progesterone reading was 13.8 (I didn't eat anything because I wanted to see the consistency or lack of it). I trust the blood test more. It is possible that progesterone fluctuates but I am unsure how fast and these two tests were so close in time to each other.In conclusion, this system is completely worth it but it is not 100% accurate with the numbers, so do not stress out if it cannot confirm you ovulated or you think your progesterone is low. But what is good, even with the slightly wrong numbers, you can definitely get some sort of base-line of the rises and falls of your hormones. I believe these tests are consistent in the hormones they measure and are still very helpful in that regard, just not as accurate with the actual numbers.

If you’re trying for a baby, buy this. Tells you when you’re going to start your period, ovulation, confirms ovulation, etc. I know it’s pricy but I feel like it’s worth the money.
