Clear blue advanced digital - no refills?!

I'm shocked to discover that you can't buy extra tests for the clear blue advanced digital holder?

I can see this getting very expensive!

I was gutted about that too. I bought one more box after running out the first time and now have gone for Amazon cheapies (says they are the same ones NHS use) so will see how I get on with those this month. Cost about £5 for 30. Seem pretty easy to use and read

Yeah I have those cheap ones too. They're actually very good. I just wanted to try the clear blue this month to see if it helped in anyway. Wishful thinking

Sorry to jump on, which ones is it that the nhs use @NightlyBye?

30 x One Step Highly Sensitive 20mIU Ovulation / Fertility Strip Tests (Wide Width). These are identical to what we supply to the NHS https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B001G7P62S/ref=cmswwrcppapip_bB7nuPktqSHER

It's because they are actually more expensive to manufacture than the holder I believe.....

My IVF clinic won't let me use them as apparently they can detect a LH surge late and after several years using them I swapped to the cheap test strips and actually prefer them now (and so does my wallet 🤣)

Luckily I have both!
