Clearblue help!

I use the Clearblue ovulation sticks.

This is the first month I've just the advanced digital monitor, which has had 'HIGH' for 3 days including this morning.

Using the same urine, I've also done a Clearblue test using the digital ovulation test and it's come up still smiley face, LH surge detected.

We've DTD regardless just in case but how are they both the same tests but different results from the same urine?

What does the monitor say when you are ovulating?

Monitor said HIGH, digital test said PEAK

High & peak are the same thing so they are saying the same thing no?

They're not the same thing. 'High' recognises an estrogen rise before an LH rise which is the 'Peak' with clearblue

The static smiley face comes when it detects your LH start to rise & then you would ovulate 1-2 days after…so your Estrogen would still be high as the LH starts to rise…so this does make sense as there is a crossover. Maybe this chart helps to see the crossover clearer?
