Checking your cervix is another free way you can monitor for signs of ovulation, or problems with your ovulation. The shape and feel of your cervix changes throughout the course of your cycle.

Use A Basal Body Thermometer (BBT)

Although a basal body thermometer won't tell you when you are going to ovulate, it is a great way to let you know if you indeed have.
You will be able to tell this through a shift in your temperature moving into the second half of your cycle. Of course, if you aren't seeing a temperature shift this might indicate you have an ovulation problem that may need attending to.
Don't panic, most fertility problems are fixable, and it's great if you can manage to find your reasons for infertility, as this will put you in the best position to address them, and turn things around.

Use An Ovulation Predictor Kit (OPK)

Using an ovulation predictor kit, or OPK, is a great way to monitor your signs of ovulation. You can actually use it in conjunction with all of the other ways listed above, or on its own.
The great thing about an OPK is that it gives you notice, predicting when you will ovulate. Usually you will know a day or two in advance when you should ovulate. Learn How to Use an Ovulation Predictor Kit (OPK) Here
