mia: keep us updated. 
Ferning scopes deal with estrogen. You spit on a little scope, let it dry, then peer at it. If there are a few ferns, you're may or may not be fertile. All ferns, you are gearing up to O (can happen for a few days before O)and no ferns, you aren't fertile. They literally look like little ferns. Weird, but it works. I don't use it as THE test of whether or not i am O'ing, but i do use it to help determine when i should start opks. The ONLY reason i have a scope now is because they had them at the $ tree! It was a reputable brand too, and i have had good luck using it for two months.
Hope that helps!

I think it was pretty accurate. It would be more of a day range and not a specific day. The first couple of months I had to figure out exactly what I was looking for. After that I always had partial or full ferning right at ovulation. IMO you can't use it alone. It is just another indicator, like cf and temps, they don't always match up.




Fever over 103° and all that lovely stuff. Hoping to treat this naturally and not end up at a doc, but OW!

You are the best.
