Pregnancy Info HOME

Okay...I had to add this because I've been researching all night...I'm a day late, and I had a test strip left over from the clear blue easy digital test, but had thrown the reader out. I'm a pee-on-a-stick-aholic, even though I'm not ttc, so I tried it out, and only got one line. But I wanted to research it...and this is what I found. The reason you're supposed to disregard the lines on the strip itself is because clear blue easy digital tests not only detect hcg, but also the ovulation hormone. I don't understand WHY they do this, but 99% of the time, a woman has this hormone in her system, and no matter when the test is taken, it will most likely show two lines (mine probably didn't because I'm on the pill), and that has nothing to do with being pregnant. Thats why the instructions state that you should disregard the strip itself completely. There's actually many articles out there on the net about this. If my af doesn't show up in the next day or two, I'm going to go buy a real test (not a digital one), and retest. Anyway...I hope this helps : )
