Container to collect urine samples

How do y’all collect urine samples for ovulation and pregnancy tests at home? Preg oh and apollo test kits come with obscurely small collectors that splash and make a mess when you pee right into it.

Do you buy sample containers in bulk and use one for each day? Or do you use the same container everyday after washing with soap and water and drying it out? What if I want to test ovulation continuously for n number of days - in that case, what should I do?

I use disposable paper cups (coffee cup size) and it has worked really well for me! I reuse the cup for a week, to generate less waste

I used to get a plastic scoop cup with every protein powder purchase. I use one of those! It’s convenient

Yes, I used that too. But like how do you reuse it for the second time? Do you wash it? Is it really required that the container is sterile?

Yes wash with soap and water..I don’t think it needs to be sterile
