ClearBlue Digitals detect 10mIU hCG!!!
I was researching how sensitive the ClearBlue Digital with Weeks Estimator tests were (the ones that say Pregnant 1-2 Weeks, etc) and I came across this pdf from the FDA:
http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh_docs/reviews/K112870.pdf
It's a detailed document about the testing they did on pregnant and non-pregnant women... And even though online they commonly list the hCG cutoff threshold for the digital tests to be 50mIU, the document says the actual cutoff is 10mIU!!!!
For comparison, the First Response Early Result is usually considered the BEST for us TTC ladies, and it measures 25mIU (but can sometimes measure less.)
Just thought I'd share for anyone who's in their TWW like me and wants to stock up on tests!!! (I'm 3dpo now 😁)
NOTE: here are some pics. In the graph below, you'll see that women who had around 10mIU received a positive result 50% OF THE TIME. This means even if you are barely pregnant, you'll get a false negative results half the time.
