OPK Errors

I bought another pack of OPK mid cycle because I ran out. The first time I used it I got an error message. I have two applicators so its possible I used an old one the few days after as all was normal. I went to use it today with what I think was the applicator from the new package, and I got the same error message! ARGH Is it possible the applicator is faulty? This will screw me up today because I'm day 13 and was probably going to get a smiley face today and now I can test for another 4 hours!

Re: OPK Errors

When you say applicator do you mean the stick?

The thing that shows the smiley face (what you put the stick into)...

Re: OPK Errors

do u remember which applicator you used this morning? if so, make sure you try again with the OTHER applicator... you really don't need to wait 4 hours... i never held my pee for that long when i used them. just try again. if you get an error message again, it might be a bad batch of sticks - i'd throw everything out and buy a new box of sticks with a fresh app. worst case just just in case and try to test again tomorrow.

The sticks seem fine - I think its the applicator since other times I've tested its worked out just fine with the same batch of sticks. It's just frustrating b/c the OPK aren't cheap!!! I have an old applicator which unfortunately is at home (at work now). Regardless we have been BD'ing a good amount so hopefully something will work.

Thanks for the advice

Re: OPK Errors

If its a faulty machine call the number listed in the box and in the package they will mail you a brand new pack. Same thing happened to me last month and they clear blue sent me a new 20 pack.
