Ovulation kits....and their answers?

Question

I am currently using First Reponse Ovulation kit. I am not Metformin 1800mg a day, and finished my first round of Clomid 100mg on Friday. My question is it seems like everytime I take a ovulation test its saying I am ovulating all the time. The test results this time show two lines, the result like is darker than the test line on the bottom of the line, but then shades it, so its dark at the start of the line, then goes just a tad bit lighter than the test line, I would say its half darker half just a tiny bit lighter, what would you say the results are? Also could I of tested to early off the clomid dose? Any help on when I should test, which brand is best..ect would be helpful.

I havent been diagnosed with PCOS, but yes I have been put on Metformin for not ovulating during periods....maybe I should ask doctor if I do have PCOS

Answer 1

I'm really not sure. I hated those things, simply for the fact that it has to be a darker line, but it is so hard to tell if it's darker or not. I wonder myself how often they really work. I used the First Response, and I think I also have used Clear Blue Easy, and they were the same. If you are on Metformin, I'm assuming you have PCOS (just a guess). I never took Clomid, I just took Avandia, which is the same as the Met, but no side effects.
I also read that Clomid can effect the results of those tests, as well as pregnancy tests, so that may be a part of it too.

Please go to http://www.peeonastick.com and click on FAQ about OPK'S.
It will answer all your questions. This is from the site:What if my OPK is positive almost all the time? The most common cause of constant positive or almost-positive OPK's is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS.) This disorder is usually characterized by elevated LH (hence the positive OPK's), and is common in women with very long and/or anovulatory cycles.

Don't self-diagnose, though! If you're worried (or just plain obsessed with your pee-sticks ;) call your doct-- okay, okay, you know the drill ;)

Answer 3

IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment; IUI, ICSI and Laparoscopic surgery is very cheap in India. The cost is very low and the medical services are very good in India.

My cousin and her husband got their IVF treatment in India through the Forerunners Healthcare in India and is all praise for this company. She is a known case of PCOS.She is a very happy mother of a baby boy now. She just paid 2500 pounds for the full IVF treatment in India for which she was quoted 8000 pounds in private setup in UK.

Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. I read a lot about them in the newspapers. I have also read about a Chinese couple who planned surrogacy through the Forerunners Healthcare. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery and infertility treatment like IVF, IUI, and ICSI abroad for low price. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery and treatment can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
