Can you use Persona Test sticks in a Clearblue monitor and it WORKS!?

Have read the odd thing about you can but wanted to ask here.

Ov for me is very irregular so sometimes persona misses it- thought clearblue might be more likely to catch it!

(Still have 5 boxes of persona to use though!)

If not looks like I will be experimenting!

They work in basically the same way, so if persona misses it so will the Clearblue. You just have to reverse the days, if you know what I mean.

I have no idea if the sticks are compatible or not though, sorry.

Clearblue has more of a window though so ten days instead of 8 so am hoping it wont miss it! It does say if your cycle is irregular it may ask you for 20 test sticks instead of 10- it has to catch it then!

Basically Persona only has 7 as no matter what you are always asked for a test on day 6 (which is ignore now to save test sticks! only coz TTC wouldnt if I was using fo contraception!)

Hi,

Just a quick message I was looking on here for a friend when I came accross your thread. I used persona to help me and I too did not bother with the day 6 window - however even though I have irregular cycles I know that I got pregnant between day 6 and 11 because I was away with work from day 12 to next period and did not have sex. To put it bluntly sex occurred day 6 and not after. After 14 months of trying I got pregnant at a time I had previously not bothered with - as I had thought it impossible - don;t discount the early part of your cycle as it reduces your chances as I found out.
