Did you know... A question & Answer about Clearblue/Clearplan Monitors

Did you know???

Question: I see alot of Clearblue & Clearplan Easy Fertility monitors. Is one different from the other? Is one a knock-off brand?

Answer: Years ago, the Clearblue Monitor was called the Clearplan. For unknown reasons to the outside world Clearplan decided to change there name, Thus the new name Clearblue Easy fertility monitor. They are the same exact monitor, made the same way, working the same way. The only difference is the Name, yup just the name.

Question: What comes with the monitor & what else do I need to buy?

Answer: Clearblue Monitors are sold in stores & they include the unit itself & an instruction manual. You will nee 4 AAA batteries & Test sticks to use this monitor, both of which are sold separately.

Question: My friend has a Clearplan monitor, she says works great but its 10 years old. Is it expired?

Answer: No the monitor itself never expires! As long as the monitor is fully functioning you should have no problems using it after it has been reset.

Question: I was looking to buy a used fertility monitor, but its older. How long of a life do you think it will have?

Answer: From all the research I have done on these monitors, I don't believe they have a life span. I have never known a monitor to just die because it was too old. I have seen monitors that were: dropped in the toilet, stop working & dropped on the floor stop working. Even if the screen is pressed on, usually you just get a few dead spots on the screen & the monitor still works fine & is usable.

Question: I found a monitor real cheap & bought it. When I got it, it was really gross. What do I do?

Answer: When you buy a used product such as this, it is important to make sure that it is properly cleaned before you buy it. If you get one that is not cleaned. You can gently clean it yourself. A baby wipe cleans all the outside very nicely and a Q-tip with rubbing achohol works great for hard to reach areas. Never use a dripping wet Q-tip or anything super wet that can leak into the cracks of the monitor. This will cause corrosion of the interior parts & stop your monitor from working. Its worth it to pay a little extra for a monitor that was gently used, very clean, professionally cleaned & reset!

Do you have question? I can give you the best to my ability answer from the research I have done on these monitors. Just ask here :) Remember this is my personal opinion. I have no association with the Clearblue company or any company for that fact.
