Ok, well, I'm still confused
I stopped using my CBEFM because the LH line all but disappeared on Saturday.
But, last night I was feeling a little off, so I decided to use one of the sticks this morning to see what was going on, and wouldn't you know it, two dark lines appear on the stick, with the LH line being darker than the estrogen line, which always indicates peak fertility for me.
And yet, I put it into the monitor and no peak
I suppose this what my RE meant by a "dysfunctional cycle"
Damn that Clomid

I read that you shouldn't go by the lines on the monitor or the digital OPK sticks, that they are not like the regular OPKs. I may have the website I read that on bookmarked on my home computer.

I know I shouldn't, but I've been using this freakin' thing for almost a year and the lines are very predictable for me and my cycle. Without fail, peak happens when both lines get dark and the LH line is darker than the estrogen line.

I read the lines on the sticks too. I save them during the cycle to compare. My last cycle for three days, both lines were gone, I was on clomid for CD 3-7 and then estriol(estrogen) for CD 8-10, well the days I was taking the estrogen I got no lines, but high readings, the day after I stopped the pills I got my peak with the first line extremely darker then the second one and I got my peak.

Yeah, but I'm on CD23 already and bloodwork and ultrasound showed that my LH already peaked, over a week ago.
Now, I just want to be done with this - I want AF already! I have to do the AF dance!

No, not unless it's the immaculate conception Besides, it would be way too early, I'm only CD23, and by my bloodwork and ultrasound, my RE said I'm having a totally dysfunctional cycle.
