Posted on here about a month ago of a couple clinical guard (the cheapies from amazon) strips that I got positives on. They were a mix of faint and clearly positive. I took alternatives tests such as FRER and got negatives. Had a blood draw check because I was freaking out and it was negative. Chalked it up to maybe a chemical however never started bleeding. I have PCOS and had regulated my cycles for about 6 months but now the last two months seem to be irregular again. I was supposed to start about 6 days ago. I have been testing everyday with all negatives, until yesterday am when I got this with FMU:

One very positive! So I dipped again and got another faint one. I then dipped a FRER and it was negative. I have since tested afternoon after several hour hold and in am and am now getting all negatives again even on the clinical guard (that was positive day prior). I have probably used over 100 of these tests over the last two years of my TTC journey and have never gotten an evap or faint until last month which is why I got excited. But now after having this happen a second time and having subsequent tests all be negative and blood work be negative I believe these strips are faulty and I got false positives 🤬 I will officially be changing brands. Any recommendations on other cheap brands for POAS addicts??
