What's the earliest anyone has had a response from the FRER tests?

[Marie8280]

Just wondering how early (or how many dpo) anyone has been able to get a response? TIA x

I got a positive at 9 dpo and I've seen people on here get positives at 8 dpo.

I must say, however, it really all depends on the timing of conception and implantation. I only got a positive test once my period was due with my first pregnancy. Therefore it was quite a surprise when I tested at 9dpo this time around (just on the off-chance because it was Christmas day!) and got a positive!

8dpo today on frer. Certain of ovulation date.

With respect you cannot accurately know your own ovulation date. You can sort of make a beat guess but unless you have a treatment such as ivf you will never know. I have had ivf multiple times and the earliest it is possible to get a + on a frer is 8dpo. I knew my time of ovulation down to the hour due to the trigger injection that you take and I knew the exact time of fertilisation and implantation as someone else has to do all these steps.

As others have said it all depends on implantation day which you can't tell. I got mine at 11dpo but they were all stark before that. Only at 15dpo was it a dark clear line.

@Hardchoices certain of mine- had an internal scan at hospital in connection to a previous miscarriage and was told that they could see that I was ovulating. Thanks all - so impatient and feeling so miserable so if it isn't pregnancy I want to find out why I'm feeling like this

I appreciate that you can't be 100% certain... however it's possible for estimates to be very close even without fertility treatment.

In my case I was tracking BBT, using OPKs and only had sex once that cycle due to illness. So I was fairly certain of my ovulation and conception dates and an early scan retrospectively confirmed that I was reasonably accurate (within 1 day).
