Ovulation Test Accuracy

Hi

I'm trying to conceive for the first time and I've started to use the Clear Blue Ovulation Tests. I had 3 days of low fertility and then on day 4 it showed high. It's been high for 10 days in a row now but no peak. Out of interest I did a second test today using a different reader and it's showing as low fertility.
I'd really appreciate some advice on whether this is normal and what does it mean. I'm trying not to overthink everything but can't help it.

Do you have any underlying health conditions? I have PCOS and they were basically rubbish for me. Next time round, im not going to bother with them.

What the above person said but also did the other test also check for oestrogen as most just look at LH so are not comparable.

As far as I know I don't have any underlying health conditions, I'm a healthy weight and exercise regularly too.

The other test was still a Clear Blue one just from a new pack with a new and unused reader.

Every time you use a new holder the first day will always be low fertility and you will always have the circle, this is because the reader stores previous results but it has nothing to compare it to. In future always use the same reader, even if you buy new sticks use the new sticks with the old reader. Hope this helps :)

Also I have had 10 high days before and ran out of tests so I switched to using cheapie ov tests and I just ovulated later that cycle.
