Ovulation Kits: Why does Clearblue say to test first thing?
Posted On July 1, 2010 In Clearblue Ovulation Test
I had a missed miscarriage last November. Since then I have had regular periods. I started using the Clearblue Digital Ovulation kit on my first proper cycle. 4 Cycles later and it hasn’t once detected an LH surge once. It says to test first thing in the morning which I have been doing religiously from Day 5. (My cycles are average 26 days but have been 22 and 30 +). I have read elsewhere to test during the day so that is not diluted but Clearblue says to test first thing in the morning!!! I have been pregnant twice so don’t think the problem is with ovulation. It’s now 5 months since the miscarriage so think I should be well back to normal by now. Is it possible that these tests just simply do not work for some women??? I am so down at this stage I am thinking I was damaged by the miscarriage (I took Cytotec and had a dreadful time) and am not functioning properly………please, please, please help….the Clearblue website juust does not deal with questions like this!!!

I’ve just discovered a very simple secret to becoming pregnant and having a healthy pregnancy - at any age. 
My doctor also told me to test with my opk first thing in the morning. Your miscarriage could have easily disrupted your body. I really think you should go see your doctor. THey deal with this stuff all the time and they know what to do. They can also run tests to see if you are ovulating, that way you will know one way or the other. If for some reason you are not ovulating then they can help with that, but if you are, then you know something else is going on.
Good Luck!!!!
I really hope you figure out what is going on!
you test first thing in the morning because the hormone level in your urine is stronger then
