Default ovulation and pregnancy tests

Hi
I thought i would let you all know about a website that i have just used to buy ovulation tests from, they also do pregnancy tests as well
i do not work for them or have any other association with them other than purchasing from them
i bought 40 ovulation tests and paid about £22, compare this with ovulation tests in boots which charge aroun 20 quid for 7 tests

web address is
www.accessdiagnostictests.co.uk

sorry if i should not have posted it here but i thought their services was first rate, ordered them on line monday afternoon and they arrived recorded post today (wed)

Worth having a couple handy, you never know. The ones in the shops are £10 each, what a rip off!!!

Just to let you know I obtained loads of Ovulation Kits and Pregnancy Test etc from another really cheap Website.

You get around 40 Tests for £13.95, great bargain, £2.95 postage but it is worth it.

Cheers

Ian

We also do testing pens from £2.49 per test too

It's the same test as the strip, just in a plastic pen casing and can be used anywhere with results in just 2 minutes.

Our tests are 99.9% accurate and identicle to the ones used by the NHS and family planning clinics.

Just wanted to add that there is an fantastic book on Fertility (and predicting ovulation) called Taking Charge of Your Fertililty by Toni Weschler....it is very clear and easy to read. No I am not the author just a very pleased reader who tried every ovulation predictor going but it was this method that brought on our success. And if you borrow it from your local library it doesn't cost a penny - great for MSEs!

There is a web site to go along with the book http://www.tcoyf.com/

as well as loads of reviews on Amazon

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/...504106-2895818

I would highly recommend a look - can't praise it enough

Hi, was reading all your comments and managed to find this website.

http://www.easy-tests.com/acatalog/c...Midstream.html

Hope this helps.
They seem to be quite cheap.Although the delivery is £2.50. Not sure if this depends on how many you actually buy?

I would totally agree with this recommendation. You don't have to go the whole hog with temperature-taking to begin with if you don't want to, you can just monitor certain physical signs instead. I did this and have been very fortunate to fall pregnant on my first cycle since deciding to start trying for a baby.

I bought 100 ovulation test strips off of ebay for £20 including P & P from Australia! They obviously worked because, in conjunction with Toni Welschers excellent book, I got pregnant in the fist cycle


Now, can I interest anyone in 90 unused ovualtion tests going very cheap

If you have a Home Bargains or Quality Save shop (both exactly the same) near you, mostly in the north of england, they sell pregnancy test strips for 89p !!

Not a bad price to keep one at home - just in case !!
