no high fertility days?!?

I got the advanced ovulation test and this is the first time I've done any kind of ovulation testing. I tested the first day and get a blank circle. I tested the next day and got a solid smiley and wasn't able to test again. I'm wondering if it's normal to not have any "high fertility" days at all? I thought this product was supposed to give you a bigger window of days leading up to ovulation. I'm not on any type of meds for fertility right now.

Thanks for your question, Melody.  Clearblue Advanced Digital Ovulation Tests track the changes in estrogen and LH throughout the menstrual cycle.  If the necessary changes in estrogen are detected, the holder will display High Fertility, and if the necessary changes in LH are detected, the holder will display Peak Fertility.

It's possible for the holder to change from Low Fertility to Peak Fertility without showing High Fertility.  This can happen if your estrogen level isn't high enough to be detected by the test, if the hormone changes occur close together, if a test is inadvertently missed, or if testing begins too late in your cycle.  Feel free to give us a call if you'd like to talk this through.  Our Careline number is 1-800-321-3279, and we're open M-F from 8:30-5:00 ET.  When calling, please mention reference #FB443.
