Ttc at 36

Shriya

I am 36 and ttc. Does ovulation strip work in helping you get pregnant. I have read that ovulation kits can only measure Lh in your body and not necessarily that you ovulate. So how do we check that we are actually ovulating or not? Does darker mark on the strip indicate you are ovulating? Ttc since 6 mnths and no result. Also i have small cyst
