If you read no other reviews, READ THIS! I now know I'm ovulating super late, would recommend (LH)
Wordy, but I hope this helps. Obviously using these *LH* strips TTC - so I wanted to take the guess work out of ovulation. Bottom line: would ABSOLUTELY recommend – they are cheap (test several times/day), more reliable than other more expensive tests, and will tell you more about your body -- whether you get preg. the first cycle or if you aren’t ovulating at all, you can use this “data” to speak with your doctor. Win-win.Here’s some context because ppl say they got pregnant on X cycle with no background info (which after reading review after review, I liked when I could relate to someone and felt hopeful from people in similar situations to myself). I used these LH TTC for my 2nd. My first son (born March ‘18) we weren’t trying, but after coming off BC for nearly 15 years I was preg 3 weeks later. So, I had no idea how “TTC” or OPK technically worked, and I wanted to see if I was “normal” / regular for our 2nd (spoiler: I am NOT!). After my son, I did not get my period for a total of 2 years (including pregnancy, then BF for almost a year) until finally June ‘19. I had my next 28 day later in July (yay, I thought I was “regular”) and started OPK testing August when we were TTC. The strips did NOT show me ovulating this first month using these, and got my period 32 days later. I was so worried something was wrong with me and maybe I wasn’t ovulating at all due to BF so long. So, The next cycle I said, I decided to start fresh again AND would also use the *clear blue digital as a backup in the am. Month 2 testing and I FINALLY got a surge, on DAY 24!!! By this time, I was sure I was not ovulating and something was wrong, BUT thanks to other reviews I kept on testing!!! And I got it way later than the “normal,” and ended up sadly getting my period day 36. Regardless, I now knew I ovulate late and am irregular. I had information to take to my doctor and this is taking some of the guesswork out of TTC. My doctor still recommends the every other day thing during my window until I hit my surge, but if it weren’t for these I wouldn’t know I was irregular.(Spoiler 2: CB are 2-3x the price, so they must work better, right?! WRONG. Don’t bother, these were easier, more reliable and less frustrating to use).Here are my tips (LH strips only):-MOST IMPORTANT: If possible, do a “test run” the month (s) before you start really “trying” for several reasons. 1. It took me a cycle to figure out. 2. It’s nice to get a general idea where you fall in the month ovulating. Testing with no idea whether you were early, normal or later (so annoying when I kept waiting to get my two lines) is stressful waiting every day to see if its your day(s).-Have FUN and don't be crazy (*me to myself*)-First month(s), it’s worth starting the day after your period ends IMO to cover all the bases or early ovulation-Time of day: Don’t use “FMU” first morning urine (I made this mistake the first 5 days). Try to do similar time everyday, from noon to early evening (according to box). Then 2x a day when it’s darker, and/or if you have no idea about your cycle so you don’t miss your surge if you are “rapid onset” (I did 11a and 5 or 6p when testing 2x a day)-Download premom app – it is helpful to upload the pictures of your sticks to later look back and reference-Try to use the same spot/lighting for photos for the app to compare (I got .32 and .55 reading off the SAME stick in dif lighting)-It says to try not to drink water 2 hours before you test and hold your pee for that duration so you don't dilute-Dixie cups are helpful to dip in-Your period phone app that tells you when you ovulate *IS NOT*, I repeat NOT correct. They are going off average data, not your personal body. So don’t freak out if you are early/late, and for sure do not take their word for it. (*according to Flo, only 10% of women ovulate on day 14!!!).-Their app will show you “high” once uploaded, but it says to keep testing. The day after I was high, my results got lighter, and therefore the app changed my “high” day to my “peak day” based off these results. Just a heeds up, that's normal.In sum, buy these! No BFP yet, but I will update. I still felt it was worth leaving this review in the meantime if others are considering purchasing. This month I am going to keep an eye on the strips to have an idea, but not going to drive myself crazy. Keep the fun in it and stress out. I stopped following the FB group because it made me too mental.

Pregnant first month using these
I was trying to conceive for around 3 months. On the 3rd month I used these OPKs and was pregnant the same month! ( I also used pre-seed lube and tracked BBT) Everything I could hope for. I used these with the PreMom app and it gave me detailed insight into my fertility. Cant express how grateful I am for this product.

Pregnant first cycle (with borderline PCOS)
I found so much comfort in these reviews and really relied on them for information from woman who have been in my shoes.. so I just had to write one of my own! These little strips changed my fertility world. I knew I didn’t want to mess around when it came to trying for a baby. So I bought these strips and tested them out the month before my husband and I had planned to try for a baby (just to make sure I knew what I was doing and looking for). I taped the strips into a notebook like many of the other reviewers, and it worked great. I never waited for the urine to be room temperature and still got accurate results. I bought plastic cups and dipped the stick into the urine for about 10 seconds, or until the dye had risen about 3/4 of the way up. I got best results after making sure my bladder was full, and testing in the afternoon. The nice thing about these strips rather than the digital “yes or no” ones is the fact that you can see an increase in your lh hormone a day or two before the peak positive test. This allows you to try for a baby earlier, since the 5 days before a peak test are fertile times as well!So my journey was a bit rocky. After getting off birth control, my cycles were pretty normal and then all of a sudden they weren’t. Each one was longer than the next (up to 52 days one month), and I get worrisome since we had planned to try for a baby in the near future. I even had an appointment with my gynecologist who took blood work to test for PCOS and scheduled an ultrasound of my seemingly insufficient ovaries. He was convinced that I wasn’t ovulating, but I told him I had used these strips and gotten a positive result on CD38 (I know, super super late.. my body is a little slow apparently 😅🙄😂). He continued to tell me that doctors consider any cycle day past 35 to be anovulatory (meaning you don’t release an egg). So I sounded even crazier when I told him “well it’s a few days before my missed period so I took a pregnancy test (the ones from this kit), and got a faint second line indicating a positive result *picture attached (mind you I bought a $15 First Response Digital test that said negative the day before). He again shook this off and was doubtful! He didn’t even order a blood test to check and see if I really was pregnant. So I thought maybe I was seeing things or got a false positive. That night I took another test and the second line was darker *picture attached! The next morning I took another digital test and it confirmed with a YES +! So these little strips caught my “needle in a haystack ovulation” and caught my pregnancy before a First Response digital test!! I got a blood test that afternoon to confirm the pregnancy and went back again 48 hrs later to see if my hcg numbers were doubling as they should, and instead they tripled! It’s looking promising so far 😊 my first ultrasound is scheduled for mid January! These strips were amazing for me, and I got pregnant the firstcycle, even though my periods are irregular and long! Because of my cycles, it’s so nice that these come in bulk. I ordered 100 ovu strips (and literally had to take one everyday with my crazy cycles) and 20 hcg.Fun facts that might help**I got my positive pregnancy test the first time I used the strips, which was 10 days after my peak test strip. Since I didn’t test earlier, I’m not sure if it would have caught it sooner.When I saw the lh hormone rising (the two lines were the same shade) we tried for a baby that night (CD37 on my chart picture). The next day, CD 38, was my actual peak (when the second line was darker than the control line) and we were not able to try that night! I was so upset, but that goes to show you that the days leading up to ovulation are just as important because we still got pregnant when trying the day before the peak surge. I suggest doing it both days of you can though. And maybe even the day after the peak surge.Lastly, when I began to notice my body’s ovulation symptoms, I started testing twice a day with the strips to make sure I didn’t miss any surge. I also tested multiple times a day as I noticed the second line growing darker.
