Confused about clearblue easy digital OV test!

Valencia · Jan 6th, 2010, 12:12 PM

Been checking surge every morning through the evening for last 3 days. This morning at 9:00, I got a smiley face. My confusion is when I ejected the strip from the monitor, the line was not even near dark. My question, is the Clearblue easy digital ov more sensitive than the regular sticks, or do I continue to keep testing. I am on track though to ovulate. This is day 12 of my month. Just confusion on why the clearblue easy lh stick is not similar to the control line but did get a smiley face. Do I need to keep taking test?

Hi sorry didnt want to read and run. They may work differently than other opks, I would say a smiley face is a smiley face and have a nice night

hiya hun,

from my experience clearblue digi ov seemed to work for me i used it in my first cycle moths ago and fell pregnant first time using it( sadly i miscarried) i think you ov between 12-36hours after you get the smiley face. hope this helps

That makes me feel so much better to see both of your comments. Had the mirena iud removed 2 months ago with bleeding on weird days (TMI) and decided to start using these test. It is frustrating to try and time everything right!

I noticed the same thing once when I used them. I think there is something in small print that says the line doesn't indicate whether you're Oing and to use only the smiley face to judge....Not sure how it works.

Anyway, I used them TTC#1 so they must have been fairly accurate!

I went on and decided to go with the smiley face. Well, see if it worked.

Hi Just go with the smiley face, don't look at the strip too much it means nothing there is a sensor in the reader.

Good luck hun, I am going to use these now we are back in TTC mode.
