I’m so frustrated… did I get the only defective Inito reader on the planet?

I just got the Inito reader for my iPhone 14 on June 28. Today is CD6. I wake up, ready to take my baseline test, follow all the instructions to the letter, and once I get to step 5 where I insert the test, nothing happens. I hit the troubleshoot button and it just tells me “there’s an unexpected issue/small hiccup with my test” and they’d get back to me within 24-48 hours. That’s obviously past CD6 then. I looked this up on google and Reddit in so many different ways and it seems this has never happened to a single other person. I tried another test strip, deleting the app and redownloading, attempted to disconnect and reconnect the device, nothing works. There is no light whatever on the device when I insert the strip. Is there supposed to be? Who knows, I only assume so since the troubleshooting screen asks if it’s red or green. It’s nothing.

I’m so frustrated. I’m thinking of ordering a new one on Amazon but it won’t be here for 2 days, so I wouldn’t get to use it for the first time until CD9. By then it’s too late I assume for my baseline test.

I’m so annoyed I was crying about this damn device at 8am on Sunday morning. I spent so much money on this and wanted it to work out this month and now I feel let down and defeated 6 days in to this cycle.

Ready to give up

So I’m 4DO and no PDG rise. I really don’t think that was a true ovulation. It’s my first cycle with Inito but my cycles last so long. (40 days or so) that I have to wait for a who other 20 days just for withdrawal bleeding. First cycle with Inositol as well. I know they say to give it a couple of weeks but I almost wish I would have tried the first cycle without the inositol to see the data. I know I ovulate sometimes because I have EWCM around the time ovulation would be. Not all the time but enough. I also have lean PCOS. I have clomid on hand but not sure if I even want to use it. Would rather use letrozole
But don’t want to spend all that money. They would want to do ultrasounds and blood tests so I’m second guessing that option. I am 33 though so I feel like I need to get on the ball on this. This cycle was mainly to see where I’m at with everything. Not necessarily to conceive. But another month wasted sigh. Vent sesh. For anyone that ones to join in, feel free.

Trying to quit nicotine

Can someone please help me out. I thought I could do cold turkey I quit for almost a whole day but I couldn’t take it anymore and bought another one that’s kind of nasty to try to help. I had a miscarriage last year and I really want my baby to stick this time. Can someone give me advice please on what to do to stop. I’ve been doing this since 15 and now I’m 22 I don’t need to vape anymore it sucks.

Low AMH… 33F losing hope

Hi lovely community. I learned the devastating news on Monday that i have a very low AMH level of 0.46 and im 33 with no partner. Unfortunately the clinic that tested me didn’t explain my results properly and im now descending into depression at the result. I have a coil in which i know can reduce the level, but the nurse just kept saying “it’s very low” and then kept pushing me to come in for a scan at additional cost without explaining what anything meant for my future. They said I wasn’t eligible for IVF or egg freezing. That’s it.

I am so scared and I feel like less of a woman. I’ve been crying on and off for days. I just need some advice/reassurance. Losing hope.

Irregular cycle girlies

Hi everyone! I started using Inito about 11 days ago. I have irregular periods that usually range from 30–50 days, although they can vary depending on life circumstances.

Before this cycle, I had never tracked my ovulation, but my husband and I are trying to conceive, so I decided to start. I had my LH surge around cycle day 43, and this is what my chart looks like now.

Yesterday, my PdG was 4.35, but today it dropped. Is there still a possibility that I ovulated and my PdG will rise again, or could this be an anovulatory cycle?
Has anyone else with irregular cycles experienced something similar? If so, what did your Inito charts look like, and what advice would you give? I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences. Thank you! 💕

Prolonged LH surge

Has anyone had a prolonged LH surge on Inito (and OPKs) after confirmed ovulation?

I’m TTC after a miscarriage in February. My hCG returned to 0 in April, and this is my first cycle where I’ve clearly ovulated.

Here’s what happened this cycle:
Inito showed Peak Fertility around CD11-12.
I had a positive OPK (T/C around 2.0) and egg white cervical mucus.
We timed intercourse well during the fertile window.
My PdG rose steadily and Inito confirmed ovulation. It’s now up to 19.89, and my BBT has also shifted upward.
Estrogen (E3G) has continued to rise in the luteal phase, which I know can happen.

What concerns me is my LH.
For almost 10 days now, my LH on Inito has been reading 40.0 (maxed out) every single day. My cheap LH strips are also still blazing positive (test line much darker than the control). They never went back down after my surge.
I’m currently 7-8 DPO, so I know it’s too early to assume pregnancy, and I know LH tests are not pregnancy tests.

I’m just wondering if anyone else has experienced:
LH staying at the maximum reading on Inito for days after ovulation?
Positive OPKs throughout the luteal phase?
Did you ever figure out why?

I don’t have PCOS and typically have regular cycles. My only recent history is an early miscarriage a few months ago.

I’ve attached my Inito chart. Curious if anyone has seen something similar or has any insight!

1st Letrozole Cycle

1st cycle of 2.5 mg Letrozole CD3-7, looking for other charts. I read the LH surge I had was most likely not true, just effected levels from the medication. So now I’m just waiting to see my E3G start to rise for follicle development and a true surge, hopefully, and the waiting game is already making me lose my mind.

All chart, success stories, any ounce of info is so welcomed! DISTRACT ME😭

Do I continue to test

Inito is wanting me to continue to test. Should I keep testing the strips aren’t cheap. Do I have a chance to be pregnant this go around ? Should I stop and then test like once next week to see where I’m at ?

LH Inito vs Cheap Strips

Has anyone else's Inito gone straight to "Peak Fertility" without giving any "High Fertility" days first?
This cycle, Inito detected an LH surge (and my E3G has risen), but my Pregmate LH strips are still stark negative. Normally my Pregmate strips gradually get darker over a few days before turning positive.

What's confusing is that last cycle the exact opposite happened—my Pregmate strips turned positive 2 days before Inito detected my LH surge. This cycle, Inito is detecting the surge before my cheap LH strips.

I know Inito looks at hormone patterns and trends rather than just a single LH value, but I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this kind of cycle-to-cycle difference. Any idea why Inito would detect the surge first one cycle, but the cheap LH strips detected it first the previous cycle?

This chart looks normal to y’all?

Not sure why estrogen keeps on rising and the pdg is not. This makes me think would there be a second LH surge?

u/Ok_Eagle1820 — 8 days ago

What is going on? First cycle with Inito.

33F. 4 pregnancies. No children. This is my first cycle using Inito and my cycles are typically around 40 days long. It’s my first cycle so it may be just trying to find a baseline. Does this look weird? Keep in mind my cycles are long so I won’t actually ovulate (if I do at all) most likely until later in my cycle. That is why when it shows ‘high’ fertility it confuses me. Honestly it may be high though if I ovulate around day 20? Just wanted to get others insight on this. My day 3 bloodwork came back completely normal. Also, can someone explain the alpha vs beta units. I keep looking it up and I am so confused. Any tips ok anything at all regarding my chart would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Last Months chart

This was my chart last month. Last month was my first time using Inito and TTC. This month I am trying again! I am doing a shipment this month. My cycles at anywhere between 35-37 days long. If my peak was CD20 last month, what are anyone’s recommendation to have my samples delivered? I was thinking having it overnighted CD16 and receive it CD17 … FYI the samples are being shipped in a cryogenic temperature nitrogen tank so, it last 7 days in the tank. By the time I receive it I will have 6days to use all samples. Any thoughts / suggestions! 🙏🏽😮‍💨

Chart at 8dpo

Does my chart look promising for pregnancy, or can we not determine that yet? I thought LH would be higher, but chat tells me that that’s not always the case, especially this early.
I ran out of hcg tests and they come today…but I’m so anxious!
I had miscarriage last June, then a chemical, then pregnant for 5 months before devastating news and had to TFMR in April….

New here! Fluctuating fsh levels no confirmed ovulation yet

Hi there! Is my body trying to ovulate with the two bumps of fsh? it looks like my e3g might be beginning to rise again as well. I honestly don’t feel like I have ovulated yet due to not feeling my one sided ovary pain and breast pain that I get every month after a bbt rise. Also no confirmed bbt rise yet. This is my first month using inito. I am 43 for reference.

I came off birth control Jan 1st. I have had my cd 3 labs drawn early march and came back with low amh. my fsh was normal. i may check again as i am taking several supplements to help support quality eggs.

Thank you so much for your insight. :)

Trying to confirm if this is a positive

This test to me looks like a faint line and in person it’s pink so it looks different on camera. I’m 11 days dpo and have many early symptoms. This test result came at about the 5 minute mark should I want for the morning to test again with a digital test?
