Fertility Monitor, 1 Touch-Screen Monitor, 1 Ct

Okay. :-) This is a long review. For those trying to get pregnant: I used this monitor along with the ClearBlue digital OPK, some cheap LH OPK strips from Amazon (blue box with colorful words about pregnancy), a pocket microscope to track ferning, and a BBT thermometer to track basal temp along with the Period Tracker app (pink flower app) and my FitBit Versa women wellness app section. EACH METHOD MATCHED. Everything down to my predicted ovulation on my tracking apps (was off by a day on both) lined up with an LH surge and peak fertility. I believe this can be trusted to help get pregnant, but do maybe 3-4 cycles—probably by cycle 4 you will be pregnant! For those just trying out tracking methods: This device is a powerful asset to the tools out there now for at home tracking of LH surges and estrogen level increases. I wouldn’t use it by itself because it may read incorrectly or display an error, which would have been EXTREMELY disheartening if I were trying to get pregnant and that was my only testing method—this thing is expensive, BUT THE TEST STICKS ARE ROBBERY. I was dumb and bought mine at CVS because they weren’t in stock anywhere else and I had to test the next morning so I couldn’t order them in time from Amazon—THEY WERE $80! I digress.... Anyway, the monitor stores your info for 6 months then deletes your first month to make room for month 7, so keep that in mind. It was accurate with my other tracking methods but was a little annoying to use because you can only set it up to test ON DAYS 1-4 OF YOUR CYCLE and your testing window of 6 hours CANNOT BE CHANGED ONCE YOU CHOOSE IT. Choose your window wisely and take into account if you sleep in on the weekends, as I missed my window by 30 minutes once and almost missed it a second time. For those wanting it as contraception: I hope this was your ultimate last resort or you’re rolling in dollars, because this thing plus the test sticks are expensive. You would DEFINITELY be better off buying the cheap LH test strips on the market and maybe using 1 or 2 other methods that are free to you (checking cervical position/texture and cervical mucus). Otherwise, this is just another tool to help you keep track of your lady cycle (did I mention it’s expensive...?) and it is wholly unnecessary when condoms and Plan B’s exist. It is nice to have and it has an easy-to-read calendar which makes avoiding your fertile days a breeze, but keep in mind that just because your fertile window has passed, it doesn’t mean you can’t still get pregnant. Use caution when trying NOT to conceive—these products are mostly for those wanting to become pregnant so they aren’t on your side to begin with! Overall it worked for me, I was thrilled with the results and I believe this will help me get pregnant when I am ready. It matched other OPK tests, my saliva ferned in time with the results, and my body temp increased as I approached ovulation and went back to normal after. The test window was a pain though. However, if you use the dip method (essential if you’re using multiple tests) it is potentially less annoying and you probably won’t waste a stick because I used the monitor sticks with the ClearBlue Advanced Digital monitor and they matched. Couldn’t use the Digital sticks with the monitor, though, even though they seem the same. But if you’re out of options except a fertility specialist and the money is worth it to you, GET THIS THING. It worked for me. (33 day cycle, no ovarian issues). I don’t regret buying it, but I also had a very positive first experience with it. It arrived right on time for me to set it up on day 4 of my cycle.

I’m 37 and it took me 3 months to get pregnant. I already have a 5 year old. I recently suffered a stillbirth at 23 weeks (back in April 2017) and after trying to get pregnant in August with no luck, figured I would go back to Clearblue for help via their fertility monitor. To get pregnant with my 5 year old, I used this monitor (older version) and got pregnant on the second cycle. With my current pregnancy, I believe it took 3 cycles to get pregnant because the previous 2 cycles I did not have sex on the peak days. The cycle I got pregnant, had sex on the first peak day. My advice to couples is that this monitor is a good tool to have but ensure you have sex on either one of the peak days or both to maximize your chances. Also, it’s a bother but try to chart your basal body temperatures. It will help you to ascertain whether what the monitor has told you is correct. A mistake that I had made with the monitor was to set the testing window at 5am - 11am which meant I could test anywhere between those hours. The problem with that is, if your LH surges at let’s say 1pm, you would have missed your opportunity (if you have a short surge) and by the time you test the next day, the monitor may not show the peak (since the LH surge was short). So, what I did the cycle I got pregnant was to change the testing window to start at I believe 12pm and I would test at 2pm instead. That gives the monitor the opportunity to better catch the LH surge. The monitor is costly and the sticks are as well but totally worth it in the end. I also used the clear blue digital to get my positive. Good luck to all couples trying to conceive. Be patient, be positive and definitely take your prenatals when trying to conceive.

My husband convinced me to buy this "dumb" monitor (no apps, no wifi connection) and I'm honestly glad that's what we went with in the end. This does the bare minimum needed and it does it perfectly well. We ended up getting pregnant in only three months! Some "downsides" - you cannot change the testing time frame until your next period, but I think that's just a practical need for any fertility testing. It also is annoying to have to wait 5 minutes to see the results, but not too bad. As a warning, I did have trouble getting a steady result the first month I was off birth control. The instruction manual warned that it can take up to two months to get accurate results after stopping birth control. Just something to keep in mind for any fertility testing!

These Clearblue fertility monitor test sticks have been a huge help in tracking my cycle accurately. They’re easy to use with the monitor and give clear, reliable results every time. I love that the system tracks two hormones, which makes it feel more precise than basic ovulation tests. It’s reassuring to know exactly when my most fertile days are, and it definitely helps take some guesswork out of trying to conceive. The box has enough sticks for several cycles, so it’s a good value too. Everything came well packaged and in perfect condition. Overall, these are excellent test sticks that work exactly as promised and make fertility tracking simple and stress free.

Don't waste your money or energy - this system is TRASH. ❌Design ❌Protocol ❌Results ❌Price Here's my experience as concisely as I can say it: 👎🏻Cycle 0: purchased to teach fertility before period returned postpartum. You NEED to have a period to use this system or pay $$$ for a consultant to "hack" the system with you ahead of your cycle returning. I've already spent $100 for this monitor and test sticks, and now I have to spend more to even use it for how I need it??? 👎🏻Setup Cycle: You start testing on Day 6, but you have to set up your cycle on Days 1-4. I set up the morning of day 4 but couldn't test for 2 more days. Why can't I just wait until Day 6 and do it all at once? It should at least be an option. 👎🏻 Packaging: better keep a pair of scissors in your bathroom. These test packages are Fort Knox. 👎🏻Read errors/multiple test sticks per day: I used the 15 second dip method that was recommended. Some days, it worked seamlessly. Most days, I had to use a minimum of 2-3 different sticks. With each stick being $1+, it sucks to toss them in the trash with no info provided. I also learned the hard way to keep my urine until the test proves to work or you just flush your precious "first urine of the day" which you must have for testing. 👎🏻Poor results: even once I got my sticks to register, I had 10 days in a row of "High" readings (starting on Day 7!?) and still NO peak readings 17 days in. I DID see 2 lines appear for 3 days, so I'm assuming that was my LH peaking. Not that the monitor indicated it. Also there's no "real" hormone data. It's just low, high, peak. You can understand that with with "smiley face" ovulation test sticks. 👎🏻Travel: good luck traveling with this system. Pack 2x the sticks you should need and a cup so you don't have to humble yourself and ask your aunt for one... Hope you aren't traveling during the 5 hour morning test window, or worse, to a different timezone. Oh, and bring the instruction manual for when (not if) you have errors, you can read what to do. What a waste of time and money. Spare yourself.

I ordered the Clearblue Fertility Monitor to help me detect my exact ovulation dates. I have uterine fibroids and felt like the phone apps I was using were not as accurate. My OBGYN and primary health visits are always clear: you should have no issue conceiving. After several months of "focused, tracking, monitoring, using apps" trying to conceive (December 2017-May 2018), I researched products, and decided, based upon prior verified reviews of the Clearblue Fertility monitor, that I would order one. I ordered the machine in May 2018, but could not use it because I missed the logging window for my cycle. I used it in June 2018 and did not conceive. I had 5 High days and maybe 2-3 peak days. The process was very easy. You calibrate the machine. Enter your new cycle. Set the time you wish to take the test each day. Take the test daily and wait until the machine gives you your High Days and Peak Days. Then, you enjoy intimacy with your partner on the suggested days. P.S. I suggest that you use a cup when testing versus your urine stream. RESULTS: It is now July 2018, and I am 4 weeks, 3 days pregnant. This monitor works and my hubby and I are so blessed. Our bundle arrives March 2019. If you have a condition like fibroids or have been trying to conceive using phone apps, stop wasting your time and tears. Order this machine and the sticks. Yes, the machine is 100 plus and the sticks are 70ish, but the cost of the products far outweigh the mental and emotional anguish one may feel after months and months of trying. In my case, I was simply missing my peak days. I would never have known this had I not bought the monitor. We are excited. So, good luck to all families trying to conceive. I have several friends who spent thousands on fertility treatments. I wonder if they could have saved their money by simply buying this machine. I am living proof that this machine works. It only took two months using the machine for it to work. Really, the instructions inform users that the machine has to get to know your body. You do the math. I was married in July 2017 and began seriously trying in December 2017. I was unsuccessful for five months. After only two months, I'm not pregnant nearly one year to the date of our wedding. Don't over think this process. Order the machine. READ THE DIRECTIONS. Give it a shot. If it doesn't work, then seek alternative methods. Wishing you all much success!

Easy to set up and use. Nice that it tracks the last 6 months. Takes the guessing work out of when to test at least as far as what cycle days. The only thing keeping me from 5 stars are the misleading instructions. The instructions say to use the first morning urine. I did so for the 1st 3 months and never received a "peak" result. I bought another brand of ovulation test whose instructions said to test between 10am and 8pm. After researching some more, most other tests say the same, test later. I moved my testing window to 10-3 and started testing with my second morning urine, around 11. 1st cycle this way and I received a "peak" day on both the monitor and the other brand. My recommendation if you don't get a "peak" day is to first try testing later in the day.

I have a love-hate relationship with the Clearblue Fertility Monitor. Firstly, I do not have any known fertility problems and neither does my husband. 4 years ago I bought my first Monitor and was able to conceive my son on the first cycle while only using this method (after 7 months of trying to conceive). Now, my husband and I have been TTC (trying to conceive) for about 5 months (with the monitor, OPK kit, BBT, etc) and have been unsuccessful thus far (although I did have a chemical pregnancy my last cycle). However, I will say that this monitor gives me a LOT of peace of mind. I do not have to guess around like I do with my other methods. It also stores the information from the last 3 cycles and recognizes a "pattern" in your cycles. Yes, the monitor itself is overpriced, BUT if it works, trust me you will not even care about the price once you have your beautiful baby in your arms! We have spent a lot of money already (especially on monitor sticks) trying to conceive our second child. I do recommend this to couples who are trying to conceive..but only after having already tried other cheaper ovulation predictor kits/sticks. If you have a irregular cycle, this may work great for you. If your cycle is like clockwork or you know around when you ovulate, your best bet is to try out regular OPK sticks (for example: clearblue digital ovulation tests) first. If you are prone to miscarriages this would also probably not work well for you, as it does try to recognize a pattern and this may throw it off which would mean you would constantly resetting the monitor and losing your prior information that was stored. Aside from what I have mentioned, the monitor is a great tool for predicting ovulation and increasing your chances of successfully conceiving. I would (and have) definitely recommend this product to other women who are having trouble getting pregnant.

Caja llega dañada y no permite devoluciones. No tiene tiras y ni sabe cuales son las tiras que le quedan al aparato.

La publicación está construida de manera que parece que todo lo que necesitas para emplear estas tiras ya viene incluido, y no es así. Sólo es una caja con 30 tiras y el monitor para leerlas se vende por separado, realmente sin el monitor no es el artículo más práctico. Son 30 bolsitas de esas moradas y es todo. Lamentablemente no es elegible para devolución. Es dinero tirado a la basura.

It has stopped working in month 3. The first two months were ok, and easy to use. Now its giving me an error and hence the most important days I should be using these, this is useless. waste of money.

From the illustration and the package and the bolder text, it misleads you to believe this item includes the monitor. IT DOES NOT. And this item is nonrefundable. Purposely misleading
