On CVS.com it was $25. I'm intrigued, but confused about why this isn't "out there" more.
I love that I always think I've come up with a find, a question, or something I think is totally revolutionary, and as soon as I post it I see that there are 3 related topics that covered the same thing months ago.
I suppose that's the beauty of the TTC board revolving door!

LMAO I always notice that too! I think "this must have JUST come out today!" and then there is a post from 2004
Well, if someone tries it out I hope they post about it b/c I am so nervous it is going to say "No, Matilde, you can't get pregnant." LOL

I can't imagine calling up the doctor's office and saying "I just POAS and my FSH is low (high?) I need an appointment ASAP" I can't imagine that wouldn't cause a huge 
You're right.. I don't want to be the first. There's gotta be someone out there that tried this out and can give us the scoop.
I need to get a life....CD6 is so boring... I almost miss the 2ww...

LOL I agree with you! I know this is only my second cycle really trying and I will feel differently later on. However, the 2WW doesn't bother me - it is a hopeful time for me with lots of daydreaming and wishing and praying. It is the time before we can start BDing that is slow and boring for me!
And I agree about the doctor's office. I have to admit that I kind of hold back on the information that I know already so I don't seem psychotic

Re: WTH is this? First Response Fertility Test?
from what i've read, it tests your FSH, which is something that doctors measure to check egg quality. the higher your FSH, the lower your egg quality is.
however, IMO, this is a crap test because women's FSH changes so often - even if you test every month on CD 3 you can get very different results - so how can it really be accurate?

Re: WTH is this? First Response Fertility Test?
A very generous poster gave hers away since she got a BFP...like the above poster said its to measure your FSH hormone. It’s actually taken on CD 3 of your cycle.
Not sure how accurate it is though.

Re: WTH is this? First Response Fertility Test?
I admit I fell for this. The first month I bought it I didn't know I was to test on day 3 so I waited. ... day 3 came and all it said was positive so I said to myslef ok I have ovarian reserve. No clue about numbers or what would be next month I just took it for what it was... it was possible for me to become pregnant. I would say if you are having trouble it's a place to start. If you are just starting out don't bother!
