Question

Are super drug dip tests more sensitive than FR?

So over three mornings now I have tested with super drug dip tests, Internet brand one step highly sensitive dip tests 10mul (or so they claim to be) and then this morning I used a FR.

I got faint positives on all of the super drug tests which on the leaflet say they are 20mul. And negatives on all the others?!

After a d&c on the 19/08/15 I had negative results from super drug tests and then a small bleed two weeks ago so I know it's a completely new pregnancy (if it's even that)

My question is, has anybody else had an experience like this with the tests mentioned? What was the outcome?

Thanks, sorry to waffle xxx

I can't attest to how good superdrug tests are as they're not available in my country. Out of the tests you mentioned, I believe FRERs are the most sensitive so if any, those should be showing positive if you're pregnant. I wonder if the superdrug tests are showing evaps or something? When you say you had a small bleed two weeks ago do you mean af, an ovulation bleed or even suspected implantation bleed? Best wishes.

I would say AF although it only lasted 2/3 days max whereas I'm used to longer ones..... I do have very irregular cycles. I did think maybe evap lines but they have color....will re test tomorrow! Fingers crossed. Thanks for taking the time to comment back xxx
