Fertility Monitor says High fertility...could it be wrong??

MDJ22 · Oct 4th, 2008, 19:11 PM

Okay, so I have been charting my BBT and using a fertility monitor since af. Today is cd16 and my fertility monitor says high fertility. AF has been coming about every 7-8 weeks lately, so could the fertility monitor be off or possibly AF coming at a normal time this month?? (AF is VERY irregular for me, but have had testing done and nothing is wrong)

I use a ClearBlue Fertility monitor. I have used it before, but I stopped for a while, as we had some things going on and now I am back to using it again. Thanks.

By the way, it doesnt really lose your data, but then again i dont know how long its been since youve used it last

I went straight back to using it after my mc and it was fine. The monitor has always been fine...if anything its me thats beem creating probs with the machine (had shorter cycles after the mc and cbfm just re-adjusted itself).

As mentioned above its very possible to have a long spell of highs. Once you get a peak you'll know. According to www.peeonastick.com you should always go by the opk's rather than anything else, meaning that the sticks pick up lh hormone and the cbfm picks up estrogen too, so unless there's nothing there to pick up you wont get a positive of any kind and in your case its picking it up. have a look at this http://www.peeonastick.com/opkfaq.html#14

I wouldnt worry hun....have a wait and see. Good luck!!
