High Fertility Saliva Collection
This packet contains everything that you will need to provide us with a saliva sample.
Please collect the saliva sample as soon as you wake up on the first day after your
fertility monitor indicates “high” fertility. You may find it helpful to place the
collection container next to your bed so that you will be reminded to obtain the sample as
soon as you awaken. The sample should be collected before eating, drinking (besides
water), smoking, or brushing your teeth. These substances could contaminate the sample.
To collect the sample:
1) Remove the cotton roll from the enclosed collection tube.
2) Place the cotton roll in your mouth and lightly chew on it until the cotton is wet
(about 2 or 3 minutes).
3) Place the wet roll back in the collection tube and replace the cap.
4) Insert the sealed collection tube into the crush-proof mailing container.
5) Complete the attached form.
6) Place the container and the form in the postage paid envelope and mail
immediately.

Thank you for your time and cooperation!
