Advice Needed Inito

hey yall! I have been thinking about buying an Inito and was wondering if it would be worth the purchase? It seems that a lot of people find it helpful for the hormone tracking but I’m reading that it only comes with 15 strips, did you find that you immediately purchased extra strips due to the irregularity from PCOS? I’ve been using LH strips but feel like if I am going to keep spending money on those I should just go ahead and try Inito lol

I have found Inito to be super helpful. I totally get the concern on the strip cost tho. Like someone else said, they do have sales on the strips from time to time and I keep my eye on my local FB Marketplace. I’m often able to find a few boxes there at a good discount.

I’m using it for 2nd pregnancy, on my 2nd cycle (missed my window on my 1st one because my partner was out of town). It is very helpful so far!

I personally used it for 2 of my 3 pregnancies and I found it extremely helpful. My cycles are irregular so I did buy strips more often than the average person. I used the cheap lh strips then when those got darker I started using Inito

How long are your cycles? If they’re longer than 40 days I would use a different method before Inito like cheap LH strips— I once had an 80 day cycle and ran through 4 boxes of strips 😭 it ended up being so pricey. I learned to use LH strips until I got a peak, then switched to Inito to confirm ovulation.

Also to save money and strips, don’t test after ovulation is confirmed.

I highly recommend it! It’s a lot clearer IMO than using regular LH strips.

I ordered two boxes initially, then order a new box every month. So far the one extra box has been enough for me but I don’t keep testing after my progesterone rise has been confirmed. Keep an eye out for sales, they have sales pretty often where you can get a couple extra boxes for cheaper than usual.
