1st month of using the monitor its been high for a week the darker line has moved to the opposite side does this mean I've already ovulated ??? Xx

Hi - last month was my first cycle of using the CBFM and I got 19 straight days of highs and stick 20 was a low! AF started the next day CD27.

However, I also take my temps and was also using OPK's at the same time and could see that I did ovulate on CD13. I did some investigating on google and apparently it is quite common to have only highs for the first month while the system calibrates to your own hormone levels (or some such thing!). This cycle has been a bit more illuminating as I had 2 lows, 4 highs and this morning I got my first peak (which incidentally coincided with a +OPK). I was hoping that I could just use the monitor and ditch the OPKs but can see me doing both and temping until I have more confidence in the machine

I haven't looked at the lines on the sticks so couldn't say how they have changed over the different days. Sorry for the long response that doesn't even answer your question Smile!
