Clearblue Advanced - 9th Day Flashing

[Mummy081212]

Can anyone help?

I've started using Clearblue Advanced Ovulation tests this month. I have very irregular cycles and don't have a clue when I ovulate. Cycles range from 31 days to last months 51 days 😭 I'm on day 9 today of flashing smileys - cycle day 22. Why have I not seen my 'non-flashing' face yet?!

Anyone got any experience with these Clearblues??

Thank you x

You've answered the question yourself! You have irregular cycles, so if you're in the midst of a 51 day cycle, you're very unlikely to have ovulated by CD22.

Do you have any idea how long your luteal phase generally is? This is unlikely to vary as much as your pre-OV length.

With cycles as erratic as yours, I'd use cheapy OV tests and only use the expensive ones once the cheap ones looked to be heading towards OV (i.e. once the second line is getting darker). That will save you a fair amount of money!
