It seems worthwhile to reblog the December 2007 post about the basics. Including "why the bioZhena technology had to be invented.

And then see how none of the methods determined ovulation with the required accuracy to be useful either as a conception aid or especially for birth control.

Here is how our method (monitoring folliculogenesis in vivo) does it by generating the multi-featured cyclic profile that includes the definitive ovulation marker after the predictive signals, and here is how this compares with the older techniques. See how inaccurate is the ovulation assessment by the older means available to the users of NFP or FAM.
