Which one do you use? Your low drops seem to happen early on. But your score looks good. Are you a snorer? Do you sleep on your side ?

I use the one that I recommended on here years ago. I think you liked it and got one yourself. The wellue I believe is the brand.
Start out on my back and move to my side. When I'm on my back I'll snore. On my side I don't. The oximeter wakes me up and reminds me to turn to my side.
So in your opinion these drops aren't going to have a substantial effect on how I feel during the day?

If your insurance will cover it, have a sleep study done. I was diagnosed with complex sleep apnea 10 years ago. I now have high end BiPap machine. It made a world of difference.

When I did my sleep study back in 2012 I had a 78% SPO2 during sleep. My sleep score was 54%. Using the CPAP in the study my sleep score jumped to 76% and SPO2 jumped to 96%. Big difference for me over the years. My wife used to be scared to death when I slept because I would stop breathing and almost flop around in bed.

Hey Guys! I have Sleep Apnea, can not sleep without my machine so I pretty used to it. Should I be using an Oxometer? If so which one? Im pretty loyal to the site. If always SOLID. THANKS!!
Your 02 desaturation (<90%) is minimal, so it is unlikely any symptoms are caused by OSA. Nonetheless, an oximeter would provide you with immediate, clear-cut monitoring. I use this one every night and it connects via bluetooth to my phone app and desktop software. But I have moderate OSA and am on both 02 + CPAP.

I have a wellue sleep: Wellue SleepU Wrist Pulse Oximeter. Vibration for Low Oxygen Levels
Which is great for overnight, but it does not register well at all if moving/exercising, doesn't even register well when stopping for a minute, and if it does, my HR has decreased by then.
Anyone know of models that register well when exercising or respond super quick when pausing during exercise?

I have the same you as both of you. Works great for sleep but never considered wearing it for exercise.
I think my issue really is just deep sleep. Sometimes I don't get any at all. The days that I do happen to get 1.5 hours I feel fucking fantastic. I've always struggled with sleep but I have a feeling trt exacerbates that issue a little.
