Ovulation clear blue dual hormone users

[kazzerly88]

Hi guys

Posted about a million times for my many Qs about TTC so apologies for another...


I use the dual hormone indicator to track ovulation.

My partner came home Friday and we also did on Thurs.

I had the flashing smiley face on Weds PM and Thurs PM then ran out of the stick in this box so I used a tesco ovulation thing and wasn't ovulating Fri morning.

I bought another clear blue pack and just had the circle Fri PM and Sat AM. So does this mean I nearly ovulate but didn't actually ovulate? Am so confused by the whole ovulation game

Any help is warmly welcomed

Thanks for your help

Did you use the same reader or the new one in the new pack? I believe that the first time you use a new reader (or if you have missed several days on the same reader) you automatically get a blank circle while it gets to know your estrogen levels... or something like that!
Otherwise I'm not sure.
Good luck!

Ah okay...
New reader
What a nightmare. Guess this is why they sell the 20 pack as well as the 10.
Had a flashing smiley face again last night so am just ignoring it now and enjoying practicing as I've messed up this month
Was advised to track ovulation by my GP so shall give that a go next month with the same reader and sticks

Thanks for your reply

Glad I read this I thought I was ovulating last week after a near positive on a cheap OPK strip so I opened my new CB dual hormone and got a circle so I thought I wasn't.

They should put it on the instructions that you'll get a circle on first use because I've probably missed now as we only dtd once! Quite annoyed with Clear Blue now
