FRER vs Dollar Tree?

Stake · Jul 20th, 2012, 13:06 PM

question....i was comparing tests on peeonastick.com and it says that frer and the dollar tree new choice brand have the same sensitivity level? does anyone know if this is true? I usually always buy dollar store but I wanted to see if frer would show up soonet. don't want to spend $20 on the same results $1 could buy me!

if youre pregnant you'll get a positive. Doesnt matter what kind. But like with all tests, your positive is more likely to show if you wait until your period is at least one day late.

I read that too! They both show results at 25... Spending $1 is definitely better than $20.

They will all be accurate but some will tell you days earlier than others (frer has better sensitivity than most others). So if you're ok waiting, the dollar ones will do!

Not true at all. I had blood confirmed hcg levels of between 50 and 282 (probably at least 100 at that point) and got BFN on Dollar Tree. I really thought my level would be much lower than 50 when I got the blood test results back (taken several days later), but it wasn't. I did a second one after the 50 (going down from MC) and it was still BFN, but should have been BFP if it really is as sensitive as they say. I don't trust Dollar Tree at all now.

FRER is MUCH lower than 25 (I've read as low as 6). I took one Saturday AM and had blood drawn on Monday which was 42, so was much lower than the 25 then.

Okay, been ttc forever (it seems!) and am now in the TWW- but what does FRER stand for?
