ClearblueAdvanced Digital Ovulation Test Kit, 16 Ct

A lot of the bad reviews or complaints about this product seem to be based on things that are directly addressed in the instructions. 1) yes, your wand only works for one cycle and then you have to buy a whole new kit, 2) all the possible symbols are listed and explained in a chart, 3) when to test and when to have sex to try to get pregnant are laid out clearly. These kits are more expensive than others, and yes, they are wasteful because you have to buy a whole new kit every month. Otherwise, I really like them and find the cost to be worth it. I appreciate that you can put the test into the urine stream rather than only having the option of using collected urine and I really like that there is just a symbol to read instead of comparing how dark a line is to another line ( like with other ovulation test kits). For the 2 months I’ve been using these, I’ve had 2-3 days of high fertility (blinking smiley) and then gotten the symbol for peak fertility (solid smiley which lasts on the screen for 2 days). I can see how these would be less helpful for someone who has an irregular cycle, but it doesn’t seem fair to blame that on the kit itself. I’ll update this review with the time it takes to get pregnant, but I have no doubt it will be faster than it would have been without this kit.

OMG!! I used this for the first time and I got pregnant right away!!! I have been trying to be pregnant for about 3 times and it didn’t work! But this ovulation test let me know when’s the good timing and it worked right away!! Thank you clearblue!!

I bought this one and I bought the other pink 1. The pink one doesn't work at all.

My wife and I was having some trouble conceiving. We were using the apple health app to track her ovulation days. For two months we just had failed attempts. We bought these along with the his and her Eau Natural conception pills. We were able to accurately track her ovulation days with the clearblue ovulation test strips which were extrememly accurate. We Realized from this, that her apple health app was completely incorrect with ovulation days. Once we tested and the test read that she was in "Peak season," we went at it and we got a Thanksgiving surprise 7 days later with a positive pregnancy test. This clearblue ovulation tests are so accurate and were extremely vital to this pregnancy process. Its a must have. From coming off of birth control after ten years and dealing eith irregular period cycles, it was still able to accurately note her ovulation periods. BUY THIS and you should only need 1 pack as well. Good luck on you guy's journey - whoever reads this.

Edit: I'm amending this review and taking it down to 1 star, since this product seems more unreliable than I initially thought and I can't even be sure the results I got were ever accurate. After only a couple of days of using the second tester I purchased, it's doing the same thing as the first one and giving incorrect results. It also showed the 'high fertility' smiley when testing using tap water, and now the reader is showing the book symbol with the arrow. The directions say that when you see this symbol, you can no longer use the reader. I will be contacting Amazon and/or ClearBlue to inquire about refunds for both.When I first used these sticks, I was really impressed. I had been using the Easy@Home Ovulation test strips for a couple months, but came across the ClearBlue test randomly while looking for something else. I decided to give these a try since they check your Estrogen level as well as your LH level. I wanted to use both brands of test strips at the same time to see how they compare and how accurate they are. The instruction were pretty simple to follow, and the ClearBlue actually detected my LH surge/Peak Fertility about a day before the Easy@Home strips did.I usually like to keep testing with the Easy@Home strips for a couple days after ovulation since my cycles are irregular and it helps me keep better track of where I am. So, I also decided to continue testing with the ClearBlue as well. After the 48 hour waiting period I tested with the ClearBlue and recieved a 'Low fertility' result, as I expected. My LH was low with the Easy@Home strips, as expected. I tested again the day after that and to my surprise the ClearBlue test told me I was in a 'high fertility' window. The Easy@Home strips said that my LH was still low, so I was a bit skeptical that I was back in a high fertility window, despite my irregular cycles.I remembered reading some reviews on here where some women tested with water and still received a 'high' or 'peak' fertility result. So I purchased a new ClearBlue kit from Amazon. Once it arrived, I tested with my Easy@Home strips with said my LH is still low. With the old ClearBlue stick, I dipped in plain tap water. With the new one, I used urine. Once both tests processed, the old stick dipped in water was still telling me I was in a 'high fertility' window while the new one was showing 'low fertility', as I expected. Clearly something went wrong with the old/original ClearBlue stick that I had. Check out the photos I provided for a little more context.There wasn't any rhyme or reason as to why the original ClearBlue stick went bad. I followed the instructions and ensured that I didn't hold the stick upright when testing. I didn't receive any error messages when testing. It just stopped working. It wasn't as a big of a deal for me since I was basically only using this test to compare to the Easy@Home strips and to get a little more accurate reading of where I am in my cycle. However, for women who are using only this test I can imagine it would be very confusing and frustrating to be misled like this.I struggled with giving this 4 stars because I felt more like this deserved 3 stars, but honestly when the test works it's great. It easy to use and the results are pretty quick, not to mention that there are few other at-home products on the market that test your Estrogen levels and along with your LH. This test has the potential to help a lot of women who are struggling to conceive, but ClearBlue really needs to fix whatever is causing these tests to go bad and give in accurate results.

I used clear blue as well as the regular test strips. I much preferred Clearblue! It gets rid of the endless comparison of the test strips. Plus if you’re like me, my peak never gave me a positive with the test strips. Everyone cycle is so different you have to learn yours. So the digital cleared up the confusion and was accurate for my cycle. It was especially important for us to have accurate information since we used at home insemination. Used these for about 3 months to learn my cycle and then with the three months we TTC. I’m currently writing this review with my newborn so I can say these were incredibly useful in my success. 100% worth the cost every month.
