Home fertility tests

Just wondered if anyone has tried either the male or female home fertility tests and whether they are accurate?

I'm very upset at being back to the start of another cycle after we'd tried extra especially hard last month and was wondering whether to give the tests a go for some reassurance really.

We're only on cycle 5 so sadly no doctor help this early but I'm starting to get worried when you see the depressing stats on conceiving over the age of 30.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I don't temp because I get ovulation pains every month so have a good idea of when it happens anyway.

From what I've read of the kits they test FSH levels in women, I was just wondering if anyone has any experience of them really. It's meant to be a test of "egg health" but I'm unsure whether that actually means anything scientific!
