Does anyone use the easy@home tests to track ovulation?

This is my first time using this strips and I’ve noticed they’re a lot darker sooner than the previous trusted brand I used. Today I got this test and uploaded it to the Premom app for tracking and it came up as my peak at 1.3 which I knew could not be possible. My ovulation is typically around CD 19/20 and today is only CD 10. So I uploaded again and it came back as low which is more accurate. But it was the exact same test uploaded to the app twice.

I then did a rest with the Ovry brand which I’ve previously used successfully and the line is much lighter which makes more sense for where I am in my cycle.

What are your thoughts? Are the easy@home less reliable? Do they work differently? I bought 40 of them ��

even though the easy@home test looks a lot darker, I wouldn’t consider that a positive reading yet

@gfeldman,

no I know it’s not a positive but the app did pick it up as peak which it obvs not. But it’s also significantly darker than the other brand.

All that matters is the test is accurate for your peak. Neither of those tests are “positive” technically so they’re both giving the same reading. As for the app, I usually just go off of looking at the pictures, not necessarily the app’s reading of “high” and “low”. I’ve always had pretty accurate results with the easy@home tests- both ovulation test strips and pregnancy tests.

@Lilmindy,

I know they’re not positive. But it’s the wild difference between the two tests that bothers me.

I think it’s normal for different brands to look different.
