What happens if I don’t use the first urine after my
longest sleep?
You may get unexpected High Fertility results. Test as soon
as you can but drink normally.
How accurate is Clearblue Advanced Digital?
A laboratory study has shown the test to be over 99%
accurate in detecting the LH surge (Peak Fertility).*
I’ve not seen any High Fertility days. Why is this?
It may be that the estrogen level is not high enough to be
detected, or your hormone changes occur close together,
or you started testing too late. You may still see Peak
Fertility and you can rely on these results.
I’ve not seen any Peak Fertility days. Why is this?
Your LH surge may be too low to be detected, or you may
not have ovulated this cycle. This is not unusual but we
recommend you see your doctor if you do not see Peak
Fertility for 3 consecutive cycles.
If you miss a test around your LH surge you may not see
Peak Fertility so remember to test as advised, and use the
same holder throughout your cycle.
Can any medication or medical conditions aect the result?
Always read the manufacturer’s instructions for any
medication that you are taking before testing. Certain
medical conditions and medications can give misleading
results, for example if you are pregnant, or have recently
been pregnant, have reached the menopause, have impaired
liver or kidney function, have polycystic ovarian syndrome,
are taking fertility drugs containing luteinising hormone or
human Chorionic Gonadotrophin, or are taking antibiotics
containing tetracyclines.
Some fertility treatments such as clomiphene citrate may
give misleading High Fertility results. Peak Fertility results
should be unaected.
If you do get unexpected results you should discuss them
with your doctor.
If you have recently been pregnant you should wait until you
have had 2 cycles before testing.
• This test works dierently to other ovulation tests which
detect one hormone. This test detects 2 key fertility
hormones – estrogen and luteinising hormone (LH).
It’s important for the test to establish ‘baseline’ levels of
these hormones so start testing as advised and keep
testing with the same holder until you see Peak Fertility.
• If there’s no significant rise above the baseline level of
hormones Low Fertility is displayed. You may see a
number of Low Fertility days before you see High or Peak
Fertility.
• Estrogen rises in the days before the LH surge and prepares
your body for ovulation. When an estrogen rise is detected
High Fertility is displayed each day until Peak Fertility is
detected.
• High Fertility is indicated as a flashing smiley face.
• If an estrogen rise isn’t detected, or the estrogen rise and
LH surge are close together, you may not see High Fertility.
• An LH surge happens about 24-36 hours before an egg is
released from an ovary – ‘ovulation’. When your LH surge is
detected Peak Fertility is displayed and is generally
displayed after Low and High Fertility.
• Peak Fertility is displayed as a static smiley face (it does
not flash) and stays on the display constantly for 48 hours.
If your LH surge is detected on the first day of testing Peak
Fertility will be displayed.
• You may not see Low, High and Peak Fertility days every
cycle. This is not unusual. Refer to Questions and Answers
for more information.
• Make love on High and Peak Fertility days to maximise
your chances of getting pregnant.
Questions and Answers
Further information
Other symbols and what they mean
The test stick has been ejected too soon.
Re-insert it quickly.
A symbol will be displayed within 10 minutes if an error
has occurred.
An error has occurred during testing. Test again
using a new test stick. If you have collected urine, use
this to test again as soon as the display is blank.
Otherwise test as soon as you can but drink normally
and don’t urinate for 4 hours before testing again.
You cannot use this holder again, but you can use
any unused test sticks. Test again using another
holder from a new pack, following the instructions
carefully.
When you insert a test stick if the display remains
blank you may not have inserted it correctly.
Eject the test stick and start again from step 2.
If the test stick is inserted correctly and the display is
still blank the holder is no longer working and you will
need to buy a new pack.
If the display is blank after testing it may be that the
holder has got very wet and it is no longer working.
This appears when you insert a test stick for first
time. It will also appear if you are testing after you
have seen Peak Fertility, or if you have not done a
test for 3 or more days in a row. If you miss 3 or
more tests and have not seen Peak Fertility it’s better
to wait for your next cycle before testing again.

If you have recently stopped using hormonal
contraception your cycles may be irregular so you may
wish to wait until you have had 2 cycles before testing.
Please check with your doctor if you are taking any
medication or have any medical condition before
planning a pregnancy. If you have a medically
diagnosed fertility problem you should ask your doctor
if Clearblue Advanced Digital is suitable for you.
How do I recycle the batteries and dispose of the
holder? If you remove the batteries from the holder
you will not be able to use it again.
When you have finished using the holder, separate the
upper and lower halves starting at the end nearest the
display. Remove the batteries from under the central
metal cover, and dispose of them according to the
appropriate recycling scheme. Caution: Do not take
apart, recharge, or dispose of the batteries in fire.
Do not swallow. Keep away from children. Dispose of
the rest of the holder according to the appropriate
recycling scheme for electrical equipment. Do not
dispose of electrical equipment in fire.
Are test sticks available separately?
No. If you have used all the test sticks in the pack you
will need to buy a new pack containing a holder and
test sticks. Use the same holder throughout your cycle
with new test sticks.
If you have any test sticks left at the end of testing, you
can use these and the Holder for your next cycle if
needed.
I’ve used Clearblue Advanced Digital for several
months and haven’t become pregnant. Why is this?
It can take normal healthy couples many months to
achieve a pregnancy. We recommend you see your
doctor if you are under 35 years and haven’t become
pregnant after trying for 12 months. If you are over
35 years you should see your doctor after trying for
6 months, and if you are over 40 years see your doctor
straight away.
