What do the instructions say? I’d suspect a blank circle is void? However a solid smiley usually means ovulating doesn’t it?

Hey,

A blank circle means that the hormones in your body are not at the right level for ovulation just yet. A flashing smiley face means that there is a surge taking place and that the levels will be peaking soon. A solid smiley face means that you are at your peak (ovulation can happen within the next 24 hours).

Hope that clarifies x

Good luck!

The first time you use a new Clearblue holder it will always give a blank circle because it's the first reading which acts as a baseline reading. Then subsequent days are compared to this & a reading given. So even if you are very close to ovulating that first time will be ⭕️

This is the reason you should stick with the same Clearblue holder throughout your cycle (even if you run out of sticks & open a new pack - keep the old holder).

Looks like you started testing a bit late in your cycle, so went straight to peak (static smiley face). If this isn't your month, start testing earlier next time.

Good luck

I went straight from blank to solid smiley. We DTDt that day and the day after and I got my BFP a couple of weeks later so I reckon it’s a sign to get BDing! Good luck!

Also on the clear blue ovulation when you get a solid smiley face that will stay on the screen consistently for 48hrs after detection of peak just incase anyone thinks like me at the start it's a tech fault it's not! All the best folks on your journey!
