I'm Currently Feeling: | Which way round are the CBFM line? HELP... Hi all, and Tansey i know ur an expert on these things...
Ok so the CBFM test stick, with the window being on the left side...which way round is the LH and estrogen lines...is the LH left and the E on the right...?
Even tho' i dont have periods, still waiting after depo, i thought id start using my free monitor anyway. So yesterday i set it to CD5, and started testing today on CD6...obviously it said ive got low fertility, but just wanted to read my stick myself (iykwim)
OK So the left hand line is quite dark and the right line is barely visible, quite difficult to see but its there...
Can anyone help? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | reading a post tansey put, with 2 pics, i had my stick the wrong way round, so now i can read ive got no LH line, or barely visible, and a strong estrogen line i know thats not a positive, but im glad i have the estrogen line cos i thought i had low estrogen too with not getting my AF yet, so thats ruled that out. This TTC lark is so complex!!
Good luck with ur bloods and app test Honey, got my fingers x'd for you hun xxx  |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Ok so ive worked out that i have no LH line, and a dark estrogen line, does that mean i have no estrogen because the line is dark??? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | If the Estrogen line is dark it means that your level is LOW. This is normal until just before Ovulation when you will get a rise and the Estrogen line will fade, and your LH line will go dark. HTH xxxxx |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Honey - if the handle is on the left handside and the window is on the right when u look at it then the LH line is on the left, and the estrogen line is on the right - and if the estrogen line is dark then it means ur levels are LOW. Its so confusing!! |
