A shout out for OPKs...

cpgal · 10-29-2009, 12:06 PM

I have been using (at the same time) a variety of OPKs - from pregnancy-tests.com, saveontests.com, clear blue, and the dollar store opks.

I have found the best (and this shocked me) to be the dollar store opks, then probably clearblue tied with the pregnancy-tests.com and I would not recommend from saveontests.com.

I also test 3 to 4 times a day and the dollar store brand consistently catches the surge before the others do.

Now, my dollar store sells out of them quickly (I guess like me people buy a quantity at a time).

Thanks for the review! We will have to keep these results somewhere so people know which brands are best

.

Where are you in your cycle?

Good luck and keep us posted!

lh surge today - we are just bd-ing this month and next - no iui's. We have been every other day all of this week and will again tonight and tomorrow.

I just was very impressed by their opk's (dollar store) - they seemd to be medical lab quality.
