This was the best thing I every purchased in my life. I am a rather impatient person and like to be in control of certain things in my life (yes, Type A personality). Anyhow, I was 34 when me and my husband started trying to conceive beginning in June 2009 during our 1st year wedding anniversary in the Caribbean. Anyhow, I thought I knew my body like clockwork and that I ovulated on the 14th day of my cycle. WRONG. We tried in June and July during the 5 days before and up to what I thought was when I was ovulating (even planned our anniversary trip around those days). When we did not get pregnant during those 2 months I started freaking out. He's 41 and I was 34 so I thought we were screwed. Then something told me to look into getting a fertility monitor so I purchased this one. I was so annoyed when I opened the box to see that I had to start between the 1st and 5th day of my cycle. By the time I purchased the darn thing I was already on day 7. Being the impatient person that I am (I could not wait until the next month to start using it --- sorry), I just pretended I was on day 5 of my cycle and started using the darn thing. I figured I'd know I was 2 days off and the monitor would catch up on the next go around if we did not succeed during the first time. During the first 16 days of my cycle (according to the monitor) I was at "low" fertility. I started freaking out since, like I stated previously, I thought day 14 was my peak. Then, I got 2 high fertility days on days 17 and 18, followed by 2 peak days on days 19 and 20, respectively. Hence, I ovulated on day 20, which blew my mind. That was also my 35 birthday, which was sort of funny. Me and my husband made sure to have intercourse on virtually all of the high and peak days (especially my birthday of course), although we did skip one day because we both were dead tired from a late night workout. Anyhow, my cycle was 28 days as usual and I did not get my period on the 28th day. So I took one of those First Response (early results) test the day after my period was due (DON'T buy this First Response test BTW, it sucks) and it gave me only one solid line a really faint second line - so faint I really did not notice until I tilted the stupid test but it was so faint I just threw it out and thought I was not pregnant and was really annoyed. I was really crampy so I was certain my period was just late and it was coming any day. But when my period still did not come almost 10 days later I took other tests and they confirmed I was pregnant!!! I am currently 6 weeks. Me and hubby are going our prenatal checkup in a couple of days to hopefully hear the heart beat and do genetic testing. Very very excited. This product worked like a charm. Worth EVERY penny! P.S. -- I'm still very crampy and very very bloated but it's worth it.

This product is fine and certainly helpful. I'm a mother to a one-year old and trying to conceive again. My hormones are still a bit out of whack, and so the CBFM is helpful in trying to pinpoint my new post-first baby cycle.

I conceived my first child without the use of fertility monitors or testing (I was lucky; just tried based on an ovulation calculator and cervical mucus and was pregnant on the third try).

I'm in my second month of using the monitor and I get the sense that the monitor is still trying to "figure out" my cycle. The first go, I had several highs, followed by two peaks (days 16 & 17), followed by a few lows. This month, I've had 13 highs, but based on "other" monitoring, I ovulated sometime around days 14 - 16.

It'll be interesting to see what month three generates . . . though I can't help but wonder if my tried-and-true cervical mucus charting works better for me. I also wonder if I have a hard-to-detect or short LH surge. Time will tell!

Overall - so far and for me - the product is interesting and hopefully more accurate as it collects more "data" so to speak. I envy the folks for whom it works like a charm!

One of the reasons I wrote this review was I was compelled to comment to a reviewer to boldly stated to another reviewer " Did you ever think maybe its YOU who is not ovulating?" Reviewer: Once someone decides to try to become pregnant, that person wants to become pregnant NOW. Waiting and wondering is not easy whether it's one month or 7 years. And understandably, people feel frustration (myself included) when any ounce of potential hope for information (e.g., the CBFM results) doesn't seem to work the way she hoped it would. Be kind to one another during this process. Focus on your independent experience and offer it here as something that might help others. It pains me to see someone/some people use this forum to attack or criticize others who have only expressed their individual experience and frustration.

Based on what I've read, it works for some folks and not so much for others. Maybe it's technical (user-error, the independent machine), maybe it's hormonal (low lh, not ovulating)! Who knows, right?!

Happy trying to all. Thank you for your reviews; they've helped me as I try to navigate the TTC-World again!

Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea:

My husband and I tried to conceive a child for 2 months and were unsuccessful. Not being able to control this occurance made me feel helpless. I also started to worry that maybe something was wrong with me (because I'm 35 and had been on the pill for over 10 years). Then I read about the Clear Blue Easy Ovulation Test Kit (on this site), and decided to give it a try. It worked the VERY first time I used it! Now I'm 10 weeks pregnant. I wish I would have bought it sooner! It would have saved me a great amount of frustration and stress. However, be sure you buy both the TESTER and the TEST STICKS. These items are sold separately. I initially bought the sticks and didn't realize that the TESTER was sold separately.

My husband and I have been trying to get pregnant for 11 months with no success, so I purchased the monitor in January, used it that same month. I am now 5 weeks pregnant! It only took one cycle! The only down side is that when you buy the 3 month supply, you end up using close to 20 of the 30 sticks. We also used "Pre-seed", so I think that may have helped. I would recommend this monitor to anyone, it is a little pricey, but in the end it's worth the money.

I bought this with FSA money in December. I began using it after being off the pill for five months. We used it for a month, and just found out we are 6 weeks pregnant. My cycle varied from 28-40 days, so without the monitor I don't think I could have pinpointed my peak days. Well worth the money!

Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea:

Hello, my husband and I have been trying to conceive with no luck for over 2 1/2 years. We have been to specialists and have been both checked out, and told neither of us have any problems. Nothing worked, we even did artificial insemination, which didn't work either. The only thing is that this kit does show you when you ovulate accurately, however, the box of sticks may not be a three month supply, because on the first month it could make you use 20 sticks to get to know you. I am trying not to put this monitor down, but the reality of the monitor is it doesn't work for everyone, it hasn't worked for me and I have been using it for three months with no success. All I ask is that you don't put all your hopes in this monitor, and have broken dreams like I have.

Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea:

I bought this because I am impatient, and I am so glad I did. I am pregnant after using this for just one month. We only tried for two cycles prior, but I didn't want to wait so I bought this using FSA money. If you are considering it, go for it! It is easy to use, and we are so happy! I ovulate several days later than I would have thought, so I am sure it would have taken us a while to figure that out without this monitor.

By Maria

Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea:

This monitor is worth every penny. I used it for 2 months never seeing my "peak" which is the "egg" symbol, and almost gave up. I decided to give it another shot since the monitor sometimes takes a month or two to get to know you. On my third try, I got my "egg" on day 11. We did not conceive that month, but I was so happy to see my peak, we used it again and I peaked on day 13 the next month. I have now taken 3 Home Pregnancy Tests, and all have come back positive! It taught me a lot of things about my my cycle and ovulation in general. I definitely recommend it!
