Worked for me!

2005-07-19
We were ready to try for #2 but I was still nursing my first son so my cycles never returned and I wasn't sure if I was ovulating or not. I decided to try these due to their price but was a little nervous because they were so inexpensive compared to store and brand-name tests. There were no instructions included in the package but there were instructions emailed to me which were very easy to understand. I showed a positive on my 15th day of testing and am now 6 months pregnant with my second son. I would recommend these to anyone!

Unbelivably dissapointed

Hi. I bought a set of 50 a month ago. Each came in an unmarked envelope, and the 50 packets were sent wrapped up in saran wrap. No instructions, no box...basically, nothing except an unmarked manilla envelope, 50 unmarked packets and some saran wrap. Very weird. But it gets better...I was testing daily, and couldn't get even a negative reading on ANY of the strips I tested. One line for negative, two for positive...mine turned pink BEHIND the arrow showing where the marks should be..but never where the marks should be. I have used 30 of them by now...and not a single one worked yet. At a certain point, I gave up and bought the Clearblue strips...and then when I tested positive on the LH strips, tried again with these generic ones...but they STILL didn't work. There wasn't even a piece of paper included in the packet to tell me where to return them or complain to. Basically $30 down the drain/oh well.

it's quite good

Actually I bought it in December last year. I think it's quite good, especially the price. The test strips help me to be aware of the moment when I ovulate.

It does the job and it's affordable

This product is reasonably priced and works as promised. It is less convenient to use than other pricier products because one has to pee in a cup, wait for 5 minutes before dipping the stick, and then one needs to wait again for another 5 minutes to see the results. But I still prefer this because I am conservative and tend do more daily tests per month than normal to make sure I catch the surge. I can afford to do that with this product.

Excellent test and excellent buy

These are wonderful tests and a financial God-send. I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), which means I normally don't ovulate - hence becoming pregnant is difficult. Having the information from these strips was great for our "trying to conceive" journey, both for us and for our doctor. But also, having to use these for more than 9 months before we finally did conceive, the difference in cost between these and what is available in stores was wonderful. I knew we were in this for the long haul, and I'm so glad I found these strips before we actually began to try.

I used them for about 15-20 days of each cycle for nine months, never seeing an actual positive result. I admit, I did wonder whether they actually worked or not. But after three months of metformin (glucophage), my body regulated and ovulated, and these tests detected it. There was no question - I had a positive test. And two weeks later, a positive pregnancy test. I absolutely recommend these strips. I ovulated on day 25 - much later than you'd usually think ovulation would happen. Thanks to these tests, I knew.

No, they don't come in frilly packaging. And yes, I was shocked at first at how it just came in a manila envelope, no instructions. But the tests are individually packaged and sterile. Paying for the frills just isn't worth it to me - I'd rather save that money to buy the baby something! Plus, I prefer the "pee in a cup and dip" method to the midstream tests - somehow I managed to complete nine months of never peeing on myself while peeing in a cup, but when I try one of those midstream things, it goes everywhere.[...]

They work just fine

I just received my order. The strips are individually packaged in sealed foiled packages. The plastic wrap is only used to hold together the sealed packages, not the individual strips. The strips are tiny, slightly larger than a matchstick. Keep in mind that these are dipping strips, not mid-stream strips, so you'll need a cup to capture your urine.

The instructions were e-mailed to me promptly when the package was mailed, so I had them a week before I received the actual strips. They ship from Canada, so it can take up to a week to get to the US.

I've only used one strip so far, and it worked exactly as it should. I'm very satisfied with my purchase and I'd buy these again.

Do not purchase this item

Do not believe them...there are no instructions. The product is of low quality and a rip off. I don't know the difference between the positve or a negative. They are tiny (which doesn't matter if they really worked)and they fall apart extremely easily. The pos./neg. mark is nowhere is says the mark should be... it is utterly confusing.
