Pregnancy test sensitivity List

[keeptrying]

To be fair a negative frer at 17DPO approx (i don't use OPKs) is enough for me to think I'm probably not pg. So I'd rather wait a couple more days for AF to show than waste money on a test that I will probably mess up anyway. Sorry girls... Bad mood. Never ever been this late. Just want to know what's going on with my stupid body xx

Boots have buy one get one half price on pregnancy tests as the moment and their early test ones are on clearance as wll. Although at their prices they need some sort of offer. Includes Clear Blue as well

It still costs me £16.44 for a double digi and double value test, doesn't seem like much of an offer! Asda's regular prices are cheaper than that!

I took the boots own ones back after reading here that they were 50mIU, no use to man nor beast at 10DPO!

Question - I Just read this, and I used a Boots test and got my BFP, it came up fairly quick and was a pretty strong line. Is this a good sign that there is plenty of hcg knocking about then?

One Step internet cheapies are 10miu, both hpt and opks I think..

[Sld31]

Hi- the lower it is the more sensitive it will be. Xxx

I used B&M's Clear & Simple on Sunday and saw nothing. Used a tesco one earlier and could have swore I saw something but I am convinced it's just in my mind!

Definitely a good idea to have an idea of how sensitive they are. I looked on the leaflets & on the box of the tesco ones and it didn't say, so glad I had the heads up from here!

FRER most sensitive test is 6.3mlu for those unsure you can check the insert within your box to check the sensitivity purchased. Mine say 6.3mlu which is how they generally tend to be the best x
