TTC after 35

Tell Me About OPKs and HPTs

This is such a newbie question. Do any of you purchase Wondfo OPKs or HPTs? Do you like them? When do you use the OPKs? I have used some pharmacy-bought tests, but I'd like to purchase more strips for my money.

Re: Tell Me About OPKs and HPTs

  • I have always used them bot and never had any issues.  The hpts are very sensitive.

    The OPKS have been easy for me to read but I have a fade in pattern.  Some people will use the Wondfos then if they question it break out a digital. For most people  you need to test mid morning (SMU) and late afternoon/evening to catch your surge.

  • I also use both.  I use the Wondfo's two or three times.  I usually test first thing in AM, early afternoon and mid evening if I am waiting and know any day I will O but if it is a precautionary measure before, I still test twice.  I use the digital if I fear I'm not seeing it on the strips or the strips are faint.

  • I use both. I love their OPK's. I test SMU and around 1 and never missed a surge. I bought a digital to confirm but I got more errors that actual results so to me it's a waste of money.

    As far as the HPT's I like them too but I hear a lot of people claim they have lots of false positives. I've never had one and if there is a question I test with an FRER.
    Fucking bump!!!!

  • Thank you, everyone! I will have to buy some Wondfo OPKs.
