Clearblue Digital test....opened it..inside..

[taylorxx]

It isn't true that they measure LH. That might be true of some sorts of digital tests. But the different lines on the CB digi measure different sensitivites of hcg. One turns darker with a low amount of hcg - that's the one that tells you if you are pregnant or not. One turns darker with a higher amount of hcg, that's the one that makes it register 3+. It's like when you buy internet cheapies, you can get 10miu and 25miu. This test basically has a sensitive and a non sensitive strip inside it.
The digital mechanism analyses the colour of the strip. It reads the first line to decide pregnant or not pregnant. Then it looks at how dark the two lines are to decide how many weeks. It's nothing to do with LH. The third line is just the control that indicates that the test got wet enough.

Okay thanks for clearing that up! I had read that before but I didn't really understand why it would measure LH in the first place since it has nothing to do with pregnancy. That makes sense, but what about the ones that do not have the conception indicator (we don't have those in the US)? I wonder if they work the same? xx

ok so i know i shouldnt have but i opened up the clearblue digital test and i have searched n read things online n people are saying that you cant tell if your pregnant from the lines inside. however i found this link...

https://www.clearblue.com/uk/HCP/pdf/...r_brochure.pdf

and on page 6 it shows the inside of the tests n what they will look like if your pregnant/how far along you are.

it says on the first picture that there should be no lines if no hCG is present? inside mine i have quite a faint line next to the control line and an even fainter (but its there) line under that one....does that mean im pregnant? it showed "not pregnant" in the window. i took this test about 3 days ago. i took another test (pink dye one) this morning and there wasnt even a faint positive...i FEEL pregnant..im around 17dpo..i dont chart so not 100%.

anyone else opened up their clearblue n seen results like this and got a BFP later?

I know this was a while ago.. But we're you pregnant???

I was testing from 7dpo with cb Digis and they had 2 lines inside then I started to get a faint 3rd line from 8dpo, 10 dpo I got my postive result with a much darker 3rd line.

I just opened mine up and had the dark control line, and 2 more faint lines.. Hmmm interesting

You shouldnt take any notice on the lines in a digital test. The TIMES I have hoped and prayed that the line meant something and I never was pregnant. Trust me... they dont meant you are pregnant. If the test says not preg then wait a few days and do another one.

After reading the clear blue digital PDF guide on the digital test, they actually state that of there are lines it means your pregnant. Isn't that strange? I mean, I don't doubt that I am probably not pregnant but you should have a look at the thread I just made it has the guide in there xxx

I was pregnant when I had 2 lines on one and a faint line on the other strip, the one with the single line just kept gettin darker
And darker every day. Good luck! Retest in a few days x

I've heard so many Stories.. 3 lines will either be your pregnant.. Or your not. Those lines should always be there but it's the density that counts. They are too confusing lol

hi fingers crossed, i have just opened my digi and i have the same as you with regards to lines, only reason i opened it was because screen not workin, were you pregnant when you opened yours?

Hi sorry I just saw that people have replied to this thread now...and yes!!! I was (am) pregnant!! im now due october 11th with a little boy, so id say if u get that extra line there is a good chance! hope that helps!
