CBEFM?- Update at bottom
Ok, so this is my 3rd month using this and I'm still NEVER getting peak fertility.... I am now on day 22 and it's still low--- do you think it's working appropriately? This is a new one from the company because my last one stopped working and they replaced it. How am I supposed to ever get pregnant if this stupid thing doesn't help me figure out when!!?!?!?!?!?

Re: CBEFM?
I'm having the exact same problem as you...it's also my 3rd month and I've never gotten a peak reading. My cycle is all over the place, which is WHY I got the monitor--but thus far, it doesn't seem to be doing the trick!

Re: CBEFM?
I know teh CBFM is frustrating - but it works. I started using it in Feb (along with temping) and it took till May until it gave me somewhat normal results. One month - I had 14 HIGH days - can you imagine!
In any case - we got our BFP in June. I really do think it takes the monitor a few months to get used to your cycles. In the menatime, I'm sending some dust............

Re: CBEFM?
I would consider using OPK's in addition to the CBEFM to double check whether or not you are getting the LH surge.

I do this.... I didn't trust it the first month b/c my cycle was longer than usual. But it seems to be right on target for me...
Good Luck!

Re: CBEFM?
Still nothing- I'm still reading low on the CBEFM and now it's not asking me to test anymore b/c it's tested the maximum # of days I guess---- now I'll use my other ovulation sticks to see if I O at all this month.... I'm getting so frustrated!!!

Use your regular OPK and if still no positve results consult your doctor. Some women do not ovulate every month and some women do not ovulate at all due to a medical condition.

Re: CBEFM?- Update at bottom
I had this problem this month. It was my second month using the CBEFM and it went to high on day 14 or somthing (I usually O around day 18) and stayed on high until I stopped feeding it sticks. I also was using OPK's and never got a +. Well I finally O'd around cd32- I guess I had a delayed ovulation due to stress/travel or something. So maybe that is a possibility?? The only way I knew I was about to O was by EWCM so keep an eye on that.

I have PCOS and have already gone through an endometrial biopsy and was told that I am ovulating.... i am starting to hate this machine!!!!
