I’m on CD4 today but I bled late evening so really this could be counted as CD3. I’ll retest tomorrow as well.

I took 3 ovum wands (fsh) yesterday that all varied wildly. The first two I did close together with the same sample. I was bleeding heavily and have read this can warp results but that doesn’t explain that I got a really low result first. I was using wands close to their expiry (expire on the 22nd this month). Results were 2 and then 34. The third test I did with a newer batch (expire in June). Result was 8. I tested again today using the newer batch and got 3.98 (or 4). Again the app told me this is on the low side.

I’m late 30’s. Have irregular periods. This one was exceptionally late (70 days), with the previous being 28 days but they’re always random (PCOs). Did read late periods can also affect the result , potentially. Reached out to support but haven’t heard back.

Do you think I should be concerned or just write off the previous day results as invalid? Given, my result today is similar to yesterday’s first “too low” result would you be more likely to think that was the most accurate reading? Would you retest again today with a sample late evening?

Appreciate any thoughts or if anyone else has experienced inaccuracies can share.

I did two ovum wands today CD3 (first was indicating a very low result). I didn’t realise I had flipped it (horizontally) the wrong side down at first so I decided to retest in case it caused any inaccuracies, but then got a very high result. Not sure if that’s because I tested too close. My sample did contain a fair bit of blood so I’ve read that can also warp results. Do you think I should retest again today or wait until tomorrow? I have only used Ovum wands and haven’t been testing otherwise.

I last tested on CD3 using the same batch of ovum wands in February and result was 5 and then 4 the next day.

Thankyou
