Hello. I'm new here and hoping I've posted this in the right place. I'm just wanting to know about ovulation tests and the places people buy them. I see on trademe the strips are similar to the ones you can buy online at ovulation-tests.co.nz and baby for you. They are just heaps cheaper. Has anyone used the ones from trademe and are they all good or rubbish? Right now I'm just wanting to give the testing a go but not that serious that I need to spend heaps of money.
Any reviews welcome :)
Thanks

I have not used the ones on Trade Me. I use the ones from Baby4u and I recently purchased a digital ovulation test that shows a smiley face when you are about to ovulate. It makes it easier than trying to interpret whether the line is as dark as the control line. However these digital ovulation tests come at a cost. I paid $40 for mine (includes 10 strips). A word of advice if you just one to try them out then I have found that Countdown are the only place with the ten packs. The pharmacies only seem to have the 20 packs. Are you taking your temperature as well?
