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:

This is a great product. I've only used it for two months and so far no positive pregnancy test yet, but this product is well worth the money. It lets you know all of the days you are most fertile and likely to conceive. I wish I had bought this product sooner, as I have wasted a lot of money on the regular ovulation test sticks. Now, the fertility monitor test sticks are kind of pricey especially if you have longer cycles such as myself, which means a 3 months supply of test sticks will not last you 3 months. But anyway, I'd still recommend this product because it takes all the guesswork out of knowing when to try to conceive.

Easy to use. Accurate. Well worth the money. The refill sticks ARE pricey, but this worked for me. It's much more convenient than taking your temperature every day, guessing, or various other methods. I highly recommend this product!

After trying for 6 months (I gave in and spent the money), I thought it wouldn't work. I had intercourse on a high day, first peak but not the second, and on the next high day I was pregnant. Thank God! It was my first try. Good luck to all.

After trying for 9 months, we got pregnant during our first month of using this monitor. It takes ALL the guesswork out of determining your ovulation schedule. I can't recommend it highly enough.

I have to say that this is the BEST purchase to make. I had 10 years of infertility due to PCOS, irregular periods, etc. After using this monitor for 2 months, I got pregnant! I was ovulating a lot later than most women. Mine was on day 22! Please do not hesitate to purchase. Our daughter will be 1 year old next Friday!

Comments about Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor, 1 ea:

My cycle was long and irregular with no way to predict ovulation. I bought this little miracle monitor and one month later I was pregnant! Easy to use, but due to my longer cycles I had to use 20 testing sticks. However, it was well worth it!

I got pregnant the first month after using this monitor!! My cycles range from 26-29 days, but this monitor took the guesswork away! I'm a teacher, and I was able to plan my pregnancy perfectly. I should deliver 2 weeks after school is out for the summer! I totally recommend this monitor! Good luck!

I just want to say that I don't think I would have a beautiful baby boy if it weren't for using this monitor. I suffered for over 10 yrs with infertility and endometriosis, and the first month using this monitor, to my surprise I became pregnant. I would recommend this to anyone who is having trouble.
