OvaTel is based on saliva as a method to ascertain when you are
fertile. Determining your fertility period through a saliva test is 98%
accurate. At ovulation, the hormone estrogen is heightened which increases the
salt or saline levels in your body. This salt increase is very evident in
saliva. OvaTel mini microscope detector will allow you to see the salt crystals
drying on the slide of OvaTel

equipted with a powerful Magnifying Lens with a magnifying power of 54X. OvaTel
comes with an instructional booklet to help you successfully identify your
fertility cycle.
Saliva Ferning Is Fertility
Detector (Studies)
Researchers have been observing and studying
the phenomenon of ferning in cervical fluid since 1945, when
Papanicolau observed microscopic crystal formations in cervical fluid (cervical
mucus). Subsequent researchers have studied the ferning of other body fluids,
including saliva.
In 1969, Dr. Biel Cassals, a
Spanish gynecologist, studied the crystallization of saliva. His presentation
to the Barcelona Medical Board was in regard to the relationship between
hormonal changes during the female menstrual cycle and the crystallization of
saliva, indicating that the ferning saliva is virtually identical in appearance
to the arborization effect of cervical fluid. He put his findings into use in
1971 when he developed a microscope intended to test for
ferning in saliva. His clinical experiments involved a number of physicians
testing the apparatus for approximately 10 months on a group of 1,000 women.
These women used the saliva test as a method to ascertain when they were
fertile. According to Biel Cassals, this method's success rate was around
96.2%.
A study conducted in 1991 (M. Guida) at the
Institute of Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic in Napoli, Italy, achieved a
positive result in 92% of the cases studied, matching salivary ferning to the
fertile preovulatory and ovulatory period. Parameters recorded included basal
temperature, subjective sensation of the mucus at the level of the vulva,
characteristics of cervical fluid, abdominal and/or lumbar painfulness, and
echographic proof of ovulation.
A further study conducted in
1992 in Milan, Italy (M. Barbato, A. Pandolfi) and Naples,
Italy, (M. Guida) examined the use-effectiveness of salivary ferning as a
diagnostic testing aid to natural family planning. This study used a mini
microscope. They concluded that there is a direct correlation between salivary
ferning and the fertile period. Their conclusion clearly stated that
"salivary ferning may be used as a new parameter to aid women to detect the
fertile period in combination with other sympto-thermal methods of ovulation
detection." The ferning event began on average about 7 ½ days before
the first day of basal body temperature rise. In general, salivary
ferning was seen to begin 1 to 2 days before the onset of wet cervical fluid.
In 1992 , a study involving 300 women
from an IVF (in vitro fertilization) program was created at the 2nd Department
of Gynaecology and Obstetrics in Brno, Czechoslovakia. Patients were instructed
in the use of a handheld microscope to observe salivary ferning. In all of the
patients, the cycle was stimulated by means of clomiphene citrate/CC/ Gravosan
Spofa/and hMG/Pergonal Serono/. Follicular growth was monitored with a 7 MHz US
vaginal sound/Kretz/. Serum 17 beta oestradiol and LH levels were evaluated
daily by radio-immune methods. Basal temperature was also recorded daily. This
study found a definite correlation between oestrogen activity and
crystallization of saliva, between LH curve and crystallization of saliva and
between follicular growth and crystallization of saliva. The study, which used
a PC-2000 microscope, classified reliability as "very high level," and claimed
that combining the sympto-thermal method with the microscope method resulted in
a 99% reliability rate.
