TTC after 35

OPK question

Hi Everyone, 

  I am new to the site and new to TTC!  I appreciate all your help and input. 
I recently purchased a Clear.Blue.Easy Fert.ility Monitor. I followed the directions step by step I started testing at cycle day 6 and the monitor requested .  Around cycle day 8/9 It began reading " high" and has been reading " high" ever since today is cycle day 19. It has not detected a " peak" (yet?).  I am freaking out.  Now I know that in the booklet it said the first month this can happen BUT has this happened to anyone else???  Please help calm my nerves!

    Welcome! I don't have the fertility monitor but I do have the advanced digital which identifies "high" and "peak" times as well. Last month I had only had 1 day of high but this month I am already at day 4 and the chart on their website said high could go as long as 9. It might just be a long cycle. I'm just assuming it's coming and acting like I have a 7 day fertile window since I will be out of tests tomorrow. Good luck. Hopefully some of the other ladies will have more experience with the monitor version.

  • I would ask this question over on TTC and title it clear blue easy OPK question... many ladies on that board use this particular OPK and may be able to give you better answers.

    TTC#1 since Aug 2013, I'm 37, DH 41.

    I'm very sensitive to diet (gluten, avoid processed foods) and environment. Have a history of inflammation and tendinitis before going off gluten in 2009.  
    July 2014 - RE Visit #1: Eggs look good, Endometrioma on R ovary, HSG showed blocked R tube close to ovary. DH SA normal 
    DX: Endometriosis probably the IF cause and gunking up tubes.  Since egg reserve is high, RE says I can wait a couple months and then get laproscopic surgery to remove endo & clear tube.  If that doesn't help then move to IVF. 
    Dec 2014 - Saw new RE - does not recommend surgery on tube as it isn't likely to help.  Doubts I have endometriosis.  My endometrioma shrunk to neglible size (yay!) 
    Seriously considering IVF in March/April

  • Hi my first cycle using the CBEFM it requested a test in day cd6. The first few days was low, then it was high, it nevere recorded a peak. Finally on cd20 I stopped testing. But I did continue to turn the machine on daily in the window. The second cycle it worked the way it's suppose to, so I was happy about that. Give it another cycle

  • This is exactly what happened to me. I am going to keep using it, and hope that it was just the monitor getting  familiar with my cycle.  Thanks!
