About the Clearblue Fertility Monitor and Test Sticks Taking conception to the next level, the Clearblue Fertility Monitor maximizes a woman’s chances of conceiving a baby by recognizing 3x more fertile days in comparison to conventional ovulation tests. This electronic, hand held monitor tracks a woman’s personal cycle, detecting two key ovulation hormones: luteinizing hormone (LH) and estrogen. Using the two hormones, the device can pinpoint not only a woman’s two peak fertility days, but also 1 5 extra high fertility days previous to ovulation – for a total of up to six fertile days. Benefits of Using the Clearblue Fertility Monitor It was shown to precisely predict ovulation when in comparison to serum hormone measurements and vaginal ultrasound scans2, but testing may be done at home and at a small percentage of the cost. It gives a more correct indication of more fertile days than any other home technique. It’s fast, easy to use, and easy to understand. The Monitor indicates when to test and the level of fertility every day, requiring no subjective interpretation. It personalizes to a woman’s cycle, storing her info for up to six last menstrual cycles. It’s natural – no drugs or invasive devices and procedures. It gives advance notice of Peak Fertility, so couples can plan intercourse at their convenience. How the Fertility Monitor Works There are only some days per cycle when a woman is fertile and can conceive. The following map outlines the phases of a woman’s menstrual cycle, showing how the two most fertile days coincide with the LH surge (24 36 hours before ovulation) and the release of an egg (ovulation). They are a woman’s two best days to conceive a baby. But, it’s usually acknowledged that sperm can survive up to five days in the sperm supportive mucus found in a woman’s body throughout the fertile days of her cycle meaning there’s a fertile window of usually up to six days: five days before ovulation plus the day of ovulation. Conventional ovulation tests like Clearblue Digital Ovulation Test track the LH hormone and recognize a two day window of fertility. But the Fertility Monitor also tracks estrogen levels, which rise just before the LH surge, extending the fertile window usually up to six days. This expanded window may help to decrease the time it takes to conceive3 as it gives more days to attempt, plus gives advance notice of the two peak days. Testing Directions The Fertility Monitor is easy to use and gives you clear correct results. On the 1st day of your period, you’ll press the M button to let the monitor know a new cycle has begun. Each day, you have to switch on the Monitor and follow its directions. On mornings when the Monitor requires more info about your hormone changes, a test will be requested. Simply remove the test stick from its wrapper (The most of women need ten test sticks each cycle. Women with irregular or long cycles may have to use 20 test sticks each cycle.) Point the Sampling End of the test stick down in your urine for three seconds. Take the cap off the handle and place it over the Sampling End of the test stick and remove any extra urine. Holding the test stick by the cap, put the test into the Monitor’s Test Stick Slot, pressing down till it clicks into place. The display will flash for roughly five minutes while reading your info. After five minutes, the Remove Test Stick symbol will flash. Once you removed the test stick, your fertile position will be displayed. Low fertility = small chance of conceiving
High fertility = increased chance of conceiving
Peak fertility = highest chance of conceiving About the Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Test As correct as a doctor’s test1, the Clearblue® Digital Pregnancy Test is the world’s 1st ever one step digital pregnancy test and the world’s biggest selling digital pregnancy test today. The tests give unmistakably clear results and over 99 accuracy when used from the day of your projected period4, plus a clear digital readout in words: ‘Pregnant’ or ‘Not Pregnant’. Unlike conventional pregnancy test results, which studies show one in four women can misread5, the Clearblue Digital Test features an LCD result window, eliminating hard to read lines! How the Digital Pregnancy Test Works When you’re pregnant your body produces the pregnancy hormone hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotrophin). The total of hCG in your body increases in the early phases of pregnancy. The Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Test detects the pregnancy hormone in your urine and is over 99 correct when used from the day of your projected period4 – saving you a trip to your doctor’s office to learn if you’re pregnant or not. Testing Directions Clearblue recommends that you test from the day you expect your period. But, the total of pregnancy hormone increases quickly in early pregnancy and Clearblue Digital Pregnancy Test may be used as early as four days before your projected period. That’s five days sooner than waiting till you miss your period to test. If you test before your projected period and get a ‘Not Pregnant’ result, there’s still a chance that you can be pregnant and you may want to test again when you expect your period. The levels of pregnancy hormone in your urine may not be high enough still to be detected.6 Follow these easy steps when testing: Remove the test from its wrapper. Point the Absorbent Tip down in your urine stream for five seconds. An hourglass symbol will flash letting you know the test is working. After three minutes, your result will appear in words, either Pregnant Or Not Pregnant. decide the Best Clearblue merchandise for You Clearblue gives a full range of Fertility, Ovulation, and Pregnancy merchandise, so you may be able to pick the best alternatives for your lifestyle and body.

5.0 out of five stars This Thing Works!!, July 13, 2011
By Preggos See all my reviews This review is from: Clearblue Fertility Starter Kit (Packaging May Vary) (Health and Beauty) My wife and I had been trying to conceive for six months, till we bought this fertility monitor. We did it one time,on the day the monitor showed she ovulated (what we called Easter, since it was egg day). Now she’s four weeks pregnant!! This thing certainly works and is worth the investment for those who are trying to conceive. Take the guessing out of conceiving and purchase this thing!

5.0 out of five stars Easier Than projected., July 7, 2011
By Holly Fagan “Holly” See all my reviews () This review is from: Clearblue Fertility Starter Kit (Packaging May Vary) (Health and Beauty) This is my 1st month using this, and so far, so good. I have been versed in the “Taking Charge of Your Fertility” technique of tracking ovulation, and have gotten pretty familiar with my cycles. I bought this fertility monitor on the advice of my doctor, figured it could not hurt to have the to double check the TCOYF technique. But, an expanded hospital stay looks to have thrown my cycle off, and it coincided with the 1st month I goed to use the fertility monitor. Because it was the 1st month using it, it has you test starting with day six of your cycle. To be honest I kind of scoffed at that because I typically do not ovulate till around Day 21 or so. Imagine my surprise when Clear Blue Easy showed my estrogen starting to spike around day 9! And lets just say that the other “signs” of imminent fertility seem to be confirming this also. I guess this cycle is kind of wacky because I was so sick, but I never could guessed I comed into a fertile period so soon.

I really like the fact that this monitor does not just track your LH surge, but also monitors your rising estrogen levels. It gives you kind of a “Good”, “Better”, “Best” frame of reference for timing intercourse, not just a “Must. Do. It. Now” signal. For those fans of TCOYF, this also serves as a backup to the system suggested there. Tracking the other fertility signs is great, and I love the understanding of my body that that program gives me, but as one of the main signs, basal body temperature, does not spike till AFTER ovulation, the Clear Blue Easy monitor is a good tool to use in conjunction with it. Personally, I like having a tool that will read my hormone levels and tell me “This is where you’re in your cycle right now” its a great acknowledgement, and removes many of the speculation.

It was pretty straightforward to figure out how to set up the monitor, the trickiest thing for me determined the six hour window to test in, because my schedule/sleep time differs based on my job/health. I had to re set it the 1st day, but that proved to be easy to do. You could think it could be a ache to test every morning, particularly starting at cycle day six the 1st month, but that has proven to be pretty straightforward. I just leave a new test on my nightstand, and when the alarm goes off, I 1st take my basal body temp, then test. I continue with my regular routine while the monitor reads the test, and inside some minutes it gives me a straightforward readout of exactly what my body is doing hormonally.

Here’s hoping I get to use the pregnancy tests that came with the kit soon:)

P.S. I gotta admit I loved the fact that they included more than one pregnancy test in the kit: if you are successful the 1st month, what woman uses only one test???

5.0 out of five stars Give it a chance, it works!, April 16, 2011
By Lingeriegirl “Lingeriegirl” (NJ, Usa) See all my reviews This review is from: Clearblue Fertility Starter Kit (Packaging May Vary) (Health and Beauty) I was prepared to become pregnant with my 1st child, and a friend (who’s 39) was pregnant with her 2nd child, and she suggested this to me. It worked! My day of ovualtion wasn’t day 14, like al the books say it should be. Mine was day 17, or 18. Four months after I started using it, I could not believe it I am pregnant for the 1st time! Follow the directions well, use it when it asks for a test. It is worth the price tag.
