Is anyone using the ovusense? I have irregular periods and have been ttc for over a year! I have just purchased the ovusense but not sure what to expect! I am wondering if there are any other users?

@Peonies94 definitely worth looking into, I can share some help with how I took it, I never had any side effects from it too, which I always worry about with these things, I've just started vit B to try and regulate too.... I really feel for you on the long unpredictable cycles! It just feels like chasing your tail! I got a static face on the clear blue advanced this morning! But I feel like I never trust that I will actually ovulate! Temping is hard for me at min too as I'm up with my DD who wakes every hour currently and we both have cold

@RMS0209 I used to have the Ava bracelet, my first chart didn't make any sense as started mid cycle, but once you go from the beginning I imagine it makes much more sense, I love to see ovulation confirmed in temps it always puts my mind at rest! X

@Newbiemg ahh that’s interesting! Thank you! A definite clear first graph!

@Moosh18 ah I got some vitamin b last week too! Ah yes, sometimes I had those and then no af for weeks, so we’re definitely wrong; other times were 12 days before period so could have been ovulation!
Ah I’m looking forward to starting this month from the start of the cycle!

@Peonies94 I did another on a new holder to confirm and got a blank circle! So either first was wrong or I didn't hold wee long enough was only an hour....

RMS0209 · 03/04/2022 08:51

Morning ladies!

@Peonies94 glad you got a chart, obv I can't start using mine until AF goes but looking forward to seeing my temps.

@Moosh18 morning! Just catching up, if you are using clear blue and a new monitor it will always have a O if it's first time using - frustrating I know!! X

Hi, can I join please?

I've started using OvuSense Core this cycle as I get temping anxiety when doing my BBT normally and can't sleep at all during my TWW so I'm hoping it's going to help with that! I have fairly regular cycles (23-28 days) but I can ovulate anywhere between CD12-CD17 so hoping it will give me some advance warning

@Moosh18 The first test on a new holder will always be an empty circle so I'd go with the first one, good luck 🤞

I've noticed there is a discrepancy between my OvuSense and BBT temps though (I'm doing both this cycle as a comparison), like this morning was OvuSense 36.71 / BBT 36.85...anyone know why that would be?

RMS0209 · 03/04/2022 09:47

Hi @polkadotpixie 🙂

How are you liking the Ovusense core so far? I am CD5, hoping I can start using mine Monday night or Tuesday night.
I am the same I get all anxious about it and was effecting my sleep more than normal so really hoping this helps.
I seem to have ovulating between CD14/CD19 so same as you hoping for a "pre warning"

No idea why different answers but I personally would go with the ovu sense I think it takes the average temp if I remember from my many YouTube video searches.

How long have you been trying ?

Peonies94 · 03/04/2022 10:03

@Moosh18 the new holders always do the ‘o’ starting off! It uses your first as a baseline! I buy the cheap ones sometimes to check the lines against the static! Or just treat it as one, just incase!

Ovusense uses temps throughout the night an average of the resting sleep, a quick temp in the morning will probably the different to the average of the last 6/8 hours! I’d use ovusense, it’s probably more accurate @polkadotpixie

@RMS0209 I can probably start using mine from Saturday! Looking forward to starting it!

RMS0209 · 03/04/2022 10:17

@Peonies94 will be the highlight of my week next week using it haha! Then hoping to start "dancing" late next week for fertile week the week after x

Peonies94 · 03/04/2022 10:32

@RMS0209 good luck! I’m hoping to start wearing mine next Saturday! Keep me posted on how it goes for you! Yes I have a similar plan haha! Here’s hoping it goes well!

@Peonies94 excited for tonight highlight of my week Grin

Peonies94 · 05/04/2022 11:05

@RMS0209 I’m really looking forward to starting mine the weekend too, it’ll be good to have it for a full cycle as last month it was just the end, so didn’t notice any trend or anything!

OP posts:
Moosh18 · 05/04/2022 13:15

I need to get it this month! I don't think I ovulated when I got my static as haven't seen a rise on temps from the oral thermometer but think results are unreliable x

RMS0209 · 05/04/2022 14:13

@Peonies94 @Moosh18
just setting up bits on my phone now obv not using until tonight but you know.

I hope it's good so you can get one too Moosh!

Peonies94 · 05/04/2022 20:41

@RMS0209 goodluck! I’m cycle day 3 today, so I’ll be wearing mine in a few days and I’m getting ready to start everything all over again! I’ve had a lovely ‘week off’ the stresses of trying! Good luck for this cycle!!

@Peonies94 fixed it :) x

Peonies94 · 06/04/2022 06:29

@RMS0209 so sorry, only now saw this! How was the first night?xx

OP posts:
RMS0209 · 06/04/2022 08:00

Survived night one!
Quite good actually impressed, couldn't feel it didn't disrupt my sleep still woke up once or twice but didn't have the stress of trying to BBT
Think this will be good! Hopefully a few more days I'll get a fertile window.
How are you x

@RMS0209 I’m good thank you! AF has gone but I sometimes stop and then have another few days, so just waiting to check she doesn’t return and I’ll start mine probably Friday night!

Am I missing a trick with downloading data in the morning? I don't think it should be as hard as it is for me Grin

Peonies94 · 08/04/2022 17:51

@RMS0209 how’s it going?

OP posts:
RMS0209 · 08/04/2022 18:12

Good! Apart from arguing with it in the mornings to download data 😂 how's you?
