Anyone use ANSWER brand OPKs?

I just started yesterday....normally I use the sticks. Not sure what inspired me to go for something different this month. But I am wondering what are the positives/negatives/experience with this brand?

I used them. I never got a positive because I was too nervous about interpreting lines so I switched the digitals before my surge. The negatives I got were clearly negative though.

Ahhh okay thanks! I guess they cant be that much different from the regular sticks. The 2 negatives I got so far were clear.

I started them 2 days ago too.. i figured ill start out on the cheaper side and move up to cbefm if a few months dont pan out
so far i found them easy to read.. very negative hahaha...
i have heard pros and cons of this type and digitals so i guess its a personal preference

I used them...they are a little bit of a problem once you start getting light lines...i got tired of trying to interpret if indeed the test line was as darker than the control..i switched to the digital last month and there was no mistaking the smiley faceChat Icon ..but alas I was bedbound with a stomach virus..so i will get another digital for this month too...

Re: Anyone use ANSWER brand OPKs?

I used them the past two cycles. The first month I had some trouble interpretting the lines but my past cycle the test line was screaming purple, clearly darker than the control line. It was right around the time I should be O'ing. Even though we didn't get preggers last cycle I trust that it was correct.

I think it gets easier as you become more accustomed to it.

Since going off the pill my cycels were a bit irregular and I needed a test that provided a 20 day supply rather than the week supply so Answer worked best for me.

I will probably invest in the CBE digital monitor when we start to actively/aggressively TTC in early summer.

Re: Anyone use ANSWER brand OPKs?

I should have said that I was referring to using ANSWER brand as opposed to the regular OPK sticks, NOT the digitals. Unfortunately, we cannot afford to drop that much $$$$ at one time for a digital. Had I known it was going to be this hard to TTC and take this long, we would have bought one to begin with!

I have used them for 3 days and its pretty clear because I have no surge, so let's see how hard it will be for me once it gets closed to O time.

Thanks ladies!
