not sure where you are based but Tesco and Asda are very well regarded, they work off 25mlu. Other than that, if you want to get a stock of tests in, just your basic strip test ( ebay or access diagnostics etc) work from between 10 and 25mlu

I've seen this ad this week too and it's the First Response one that states you can test up to 6 days early, so it sounds like it is a sensitive test. I have to admit, I'm not one for these claims as it could lead people to spending a lot of money in the hope of getting an early result ... but it you are not pregnant, then it won't matter whether you test early or not.

I have bought a box of digital ones and loads of cheapies (which are the most sensitive ones I have found so far). I will wait until I get a glimmer of a line on a cheapie and then go for it and use the expensive one.

Having said that I have read where people have not shown a positive on the cheapies for a long time after getting a BFP blood test. It depends I suppose on how desperate you are to test and whether or not you have symptoms.

i've seen some on ebay that are 10mlU which says you can test really early (a normal woman has 5mlU or less non-pregnant and HCG doubles every other day!), is this right?! didnt know if i should try them?!
