4.0 out of 5 stars Strips Work Perfectly, But Instructions are Lacking
How many of you know that when testing for an LH surge, your best bet is to test twice, once in the early afternoon and once in the early evening? I didn't know that. In the morning, your LH is usually lowest, so with almost any ovulation predictor, if you're only using one in the morning, you're likely to miss the surge. Of course, I learned all that from a article...

1.0 out of 5 stars The pregnancy test strips don't work at all
I got 20 Pregnancy Test Strips from this order (expire date 01/2012 )and bought another 20 (expire date 03/2012) from another seller.

My last period is 38 days ago so that I begin to use the test from both batch to see the result. The one I bought from another seller shows me the positive result (although it takes more than 5 min) but the one I got from this...

4.0 out of 5 stars Strips Work Perfectly, But Instructions are Lacking, July 25, 2011

This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
How many of you know that when testing for an LH surge, your best bet is to test twice, once in the early afternoon and once in the early evening? I didn't know that. In the morning, your LH is usually lowest, so with almost any ovulation predictor, if you're only using one in the morning, you're likely to miss the surge. Of course, I learned all that from a article written by an OB that was posted on an infertility website; the generic instructions included with these strips don't give you that kind of helpful information.

In fact, by following the included instructions, I spent two cycles *completely* missing my ovulation date - turns out I ovulate earlier in my cycle than the manufacturers of these tests expected any woman to - and it didn't occur to me, until doing further research, that I ought to start checking before their suggested date. Cycle three was my lucky month; I'm due this winter! The pregnancy tests worked just fine for me too. I decided early on that I didn't want to test before the date of my expected period because I didn't want the heartbreak of a "false" positive due to a chemical pregnancy. I wound up testing on the second day of my missed period... which was not completely missed, but not completely there... and got a faint but obvious positive. I never had any trouble using or reading these tests, once I did my research.

Ultimately, I highly recommend these tests. They're a great price, and the average couple (with no infertility issues) has only a 50% chance of conceiving in 6 months, so the expensive predictors and tests can get pricey fast. You do need to do your own research on how to test most accurately - these are not super simple, spell-it-out, call-a-hotline-for-help tests - but they're very accurate if used properly.

Best of luck to anyone out there trying to conceive!

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for couples trying to conceive!!!, August 4, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
Friends suggested to me to get ovulation test strips, but I thought, "How hard could it be?!" Plus, I had an Iphone application that predicted my ovulation date.

Well, after the first month of not getting pregnant, I decided to give these a whirl. I started using them the week before my app said I would be ovulating. This way I could try them out and make sure I'd know the difference.

I followed the instructions and only saw the one line. I used one each day and I'm so glad I did, because according to my phone app I wasn't supposed to ovulate until a Tuesday. But, on the prior Saturday I took the test and got the double lines- indicating I was going to be ovulating. My husband and I had intercourse Fri-Tues. But, with the notion that I would be ovulating on probably Sun-Mon.

I got the first response 6 day before your missed period and there it was- a faint double line :) The pregnancy tests included in this purchase worked well, but they're designed for closer to your missed period. I was just impatient. I went to the doctor and they confirmed I was pregnant! So, with the test strips I got pregnant the first time around!!!

Highly recommend to everyone!!! Good luck!

5.0 out of 5 stars Must buy!!, July 3, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
After 24 months of trying naturally I decided I wanted to try some opks. This test is very easy to read. My first month of using the opks I became pregnant. I had a short surge that month so if this test would have been faulty I would have never have though to try that day. This test was easy to read positive and I'm thankful. The pregnancy test are amazing!!! I have bought several pregnancy strips and have had evaporation lines appear. Not these. I was able to get a faint positive around 9 days after my positive opk. Since I had so many tests I kept taking one ever 2 hours to see if it progressed and it did. I'm very thankful for this product , it gave me the ok to try that one day and now I have my sweet baby in my arms!!

None of it from this order works.

5.0 out of 5 stars They absolutely work!!! TTC first child.., December 31, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
These strips absolutely work!

I bought them on October and according to the app on my phone based on a 28 day cycle I should have ovulated around 10/25 so I started doing the strips twice a day starting on October 15th. Well, the 25th came and went and I didn't have an LH spike. I said to my husband either these stupid strips don't work or I do not ovulate! So I kept doing it because I was still in the fertile time frame according to the Woman's Log app I used. Well, 10/29 the test line was just as dark as the control line so we had sex every other day for a few days. I took one of these pregnancy tests on November 5th and got a VERY faint positive.

I called my doctor and they ordered blood work and my HCG hormone was only 30 so we did more blood work 2 weeks later and it was in the thousands! I was shocked that these worked the FIRST month!!! So now I am 11 weeks pregnant tomorrow thanks to these strips. I guess I just ovulate later in my cycle and that is why we missed getting pregnant for a few months before!

If you are TTC buy these strips... don't waste your money on the big expensive machines when these work just fine! Good Luck and have fun!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very easy to use, November 22, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
When my husband and I decided to start trying to expand our family, I knew that I would need to begin tracking my cycle. These test strips have been extremely useful in helping me track the stages of my cycle, and I am hoping that my knowledge gained from the results have us expecting a little bundle of our own next year. These strips are very easy to use, and the results are quick and accurate. I will definitely use this product again in the future, both if we are unsuccessful this month, and for our future attempts beyond this (hopefully!) bundle of joy.

5.0 out of 5 stars $$$ Savers!!!!, November 13, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
We have been ttc for 3 yrs and it is expensive! These test strips are reliable and easy to use. I trust them 100%. Only complaint is that the OPKs are a bit too sensitive so I use Clear Blue Digi OPKs to confirm my LH surge. I usually get a + on these strips about a day or 2 before I get a +CBE. But they most certainly save you BIG bucks!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for TTC!, April 11, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
I find these strips to be excellent for TTC. The OPK are pretty sensitive and I always get a very, very clear positive. Also, the pregnancy test strips are sensitive enough to give me a BFP at 7 dpo!! (it was faint though at the beginning). I always recommend these to friends and TTC ladies. The price is right, and every POAS addict likes to have 70 test strips at hand :)

Overall, easy to interpret tests that are quite sensitive, and have never, ever given me a false positive or negative.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as I had hoped., September 8, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 50 Ovulation Prediction Strips & 20 Pregnancy Test Strips (Health and Beauty)
For some reason, the ovulation sticks aren't picking up that I am ovulating when I know that I am. I guess that they are not sensitive enough for me.
