Is there a difference?

Apologies if this has already come up, but is there a difference between the clear blue fertility monitor and the clear blue ovulation tests or is it the same thing? I have just got the ovulation tests from Amazon, 7 sticks for ??15 - not bad, cheaper than Boots I believe. Does anyone else use these ovulation sticks? If so, how have you been getting on with them? I'm currently CD7, guess I should start testing around CD11, CD12?? Any info much appreciated! Zxx

    Hey there

    The difference is that the monitor gives you more fertile days, whereas the sticks only tell you when you ovulate. With the monitor you get a series of "highs" before ov, so you kinda get a few days warning and are able to up the anti, bd wise (giggle).

    I have used both the sticks and the monitor and found both really easy to use and read - far easier than the fr ones, where you have to "read" two lines. With the clear blue it is so straight forward. They are pricey though, I suppose the price reflects the amount of technology in them!!
