| Customer Reviews: This is such a confusing test April 12, 2010 Gina (New York, NY) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This test is so difficult to read. The instruction tells you that the test is positive if the test line is the same shade of pink or it is a darker pink than the reference line. So basically your playing guessing games on two shades of pink. They apparently couldn't come up with a better idea. I definitely missed my ovulation this month because of this test! I would not purchase this product again!
Not as helpful as it sounds February 18, 2010 Michigirl 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
A few things to know:
1) These tests "expire" 30 days after you open the bag. So don't think you can stock up for multiple months. Of course they won't mention this until you've already opened the box.
2) This isn't as black-and-white as they'd have you believe, at least in my case. Unlike pregnancy tests, where you're looking for the presence or absence of a line, reading these tests depends on determining whether the test line is lighter than the control line (a negative test) or the same as or darker than the control line (a positive test). Maybe this is fine for most people, but every day since I've started, the two lines have been similar in color and tricky to decide which is "lighter" or "darker". Since you are only supposed to have a positive test for a few days of the month, I couldn't really say whether I've ovulated or not. So I spent my money . . . why?
3) the instructions included are pretty vague . . . you will probably want to read up on ovulation testing online (but don't count on first response's website to be very helpful) before you start. Additionally, things like Clomid can mess with your results.
All that said, this pack cost something like $48 at CVS. So if you're going to buy it, buy it here.
DO NOT waste your money February 12, 2010 Isolde34 (Raleigh, NC) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
2 months (and $[...]) later I am furious that I have wasted time, worry and effort on these sticks. I have never had a positive despite following directions meticulously. Perhaps it's the vague "limit fluids" - what precisely does that mean? 1 tbsp of water or 1 cup? For how long? I've read later that you are supposed to drink "very little" and hold your urine for 4 hours prior to testing. Um, if you've ever given birth, and if you actually drink fluids the way you are supposed to you're probably going to give yourself a UTI if you try to hold your urine for four hours. I will stick to the much less ambiguous BBT charting and cervical fluid observation, which frankly is significantly more accurate for timing anyway. Save your money, ladies - your body will tell you what you need to know. (Reference "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" by Toni Weschler, for more direction.)
Month supply February 11, 2010 Mika Vevo (Portland, OR) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The tests are exactly of the same quality as the individually packed tests, however don't have the caps and all 20 of them are packed together in a zipped bag. Once opened they have to be used within 20 days. If for some reason you have to test for more than 7 days, they are pretty good deal. Otherwise the regular 7-day pack is your best bet.
They were always easy to read for me (I assume it may vary by individual hormone levels) and left no doubt when the surge is occurring. I have tried using Clear Blue before and the First Response were way easier to read.
Ovulation kit January 18, 2010 Otc Bourke 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Bought this so I could get a bumper pack of kits and hopefully spend a little less. However, you have to use all 20 sticks within 30 days so its fine if you would use that many in any given cycle because you have no idea when you ovulate and have very long cycles. But if you can pin point ovulation within a 5 day window then this bumper pack is not very useful!
