My ovulation tests are always positive, what does this mean?

If the ovulation test is positive throughout the entire menstrual cycle, this means that the concentration of the LH hormone is elevated due to some alteration such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).

In this case, the woman should visit the gynecologist to check if there are any fertility problems and if she is ovulating correctly.

The same will happen if the ovulation tests are always negative, as this corresponds to anovulation problems.
