An over-the-counter ovulation prediction kit — a test that you can perform at home — detects the surge in luteinizing hormone (LH) that occurs before ovulation.

Use of injectable fertility drugs to induce ovulation can cause OHSS, in which your ovaries become swollen and painful.

Eggs are removed from your ovaries and are fertilized with sperm in a laboratory. A fertilized egg is then transferred to your uterus, with the hope that it will implant itself.

Egg quality declines significantly in the late 30s and early 40s.
