OPK - When do you test?
When do you usually test? Does the time of day affect your results. The digital clear blue easy says you can test at any point during the day...

I test FU of the day but I don't think it matters.

Re: OPK - When do you test?
OK i was using EPT in the evening and hated how it was digital. Started using the Clear Blue last night and then tested this morning and got a :) was wondering if it mattered what time I used it!

Re: OPK - When do you test?
Well, generally speaking...with OPK tests, you are not supposed to use the first urine of the day...only with PG tests. The directions will tell you when the best time is. I have gotten accurate reading at noon. Just make sure that you do not drink too much liquid before testing as this will dilute your urine. They say to try to hold it for 3-4 hours before testing.

The directions on the CBE test said you can use any time, the one on the EPT said not to use first urine. I will test again later just to be sure.

Re: OPK - When do you test?
i use clearblue easy digitals and use FMU and they are always accurate
you can test anytime of day - but it does tell you that you have to hold your urine for 4 hours first - which is why fmu is always easiest
But make sure you test the same time each day in case you have a short LH surge

I tested with FMU, it is the only time of day I know I will do it the same time each day.

Me too.
Well, sometimes I get up in the middle of the night to pee, so sometimes I guess its FMU ... but always around the same time of day, first thing in the AM.
Thats 1 of the reasons I love the CBE digis.
