CBEFM Question

What is the most amount of days you have had a high reading for (I.E. not the egg)? I have had the high reading since cd 10 and I am on cd 20 now. I missed testing on cd 16 and 17. I started metformin this month and I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Thanks

ETA my cycles are usually 28 days. I hae PCOS and endometriosis. Last month my cycle was 24 days.

The most I've gotten was 6 days but its possible bc of your PCOS you are not getting an accurate reading however I've also read for some people you can get many high readings as the cbefm monitor gets to "know you" the first month. Also, the instructions tell you it's important not to miss testing esp in the beginning so that could have caused a problem too.

The first month I used it I had high readings for 11 days straight, at which point I had already been to my doctor and confirmed by blood and sono that I'd ovulated already. I tested everyday and the monitor didn't pick it up, and despite the drop in estrogen it still read as high.

My cycles are looooong so I've had high readings from CD9 until CD24 when I finally got a peak reading. I too am on Metformin.
