Clearblue ovulation test help!

[SophieStripe]

Hey... So this is the third month this is happening, but after MC in Nov put it down to that. This month AF was super normal and came exactly 12 days after confirmed ovulation so figured I was all "normal" again. Started OPK yesterday (CD5) negative on IC and empty circle/face on clear blue. That was around 6pm. 11am this morning (CD6) negative on IC. 6pm this evening flashing smiley with CB! I have brand that goes empty circle, flashing, then solid smiley. I am still spotting a wee bit from AF. I always get over 10 days flashings before a solid. Is this normal?! Why is it flashing so soon? Is it picking up estrogen? Do I have too much?! Thanks!

Mine was the same, 2 weeks of flashing smiley! I have given up on Clearblue. Everyone seems to buy ICs and raves about them so it may be worth a try.

I also had my hormones checked and they were all normal

Are you starting too early? For a 28 day cycle I think they recommend starting day 7. If you start earlier than recommended it can mess up your oestrogen readings (the flashing smily).

I had about 15 days of flashing smilies my first month so after that I got the cheap one step opks and when it was clear I was near ovulation from that I used the clear blue to confirm. It worked last month, I had one flashing and then a solid the next day! Definitely recommend this method as it saves you money too!
