TTC/ovulation test help

[mrs.spunky]

I am using the CBEFM and Wondfo ovulation strips. The monitor said low this morning yet this is how the strip read. Thoughts as to the reason for the discrepancy?

Your levels improved though out the day? Go have sex!

That's positive. Get busy!

Did you use the Wondfo later in the day?

Was this your first time using the CBEFM? Could still be adjusting to your body.

Go get em!

No I've been using it on/off for ~4 months. It is usually off 2-3 days compared to the ovulation day on my chart. Meaning, it will say my peak is at, say, day 14 and I don't O until day 16/17, per my chart. (Or peak at 15, O on 17/18)
Usually the strips & the monitor are in sync. This time, they weren't.
I re-tested this morning and it was very dark again, but I had no more of the pee sticks for the CBEFM to compare.

Your LH usually surges ~48 hours before O, so this is a good indication that you are testing at the right time and catching your peak. Sounds like your hormone levels are where they should be during this part of your cycle.

Sorry, I have nothing about the discrepancy between Wondfo's and CBEFM. Although if you hang out on the TTGP board long enough, you'll see that this question comes up pretty frequently.

I fear I will be eaten alive if I go over to TTGP but thank you!

My only input is that I think the Wondfos are very accurate. I see my surge at the same time I have ovulation pain.

I used wondfos with success. I'd just go ahead and start gettin' busy now!
