What is going on with my OPK ?! 😭

Question

After months of meds, we finally got a follicle to grow (2 actually). The doc said I should expect ovulation today or Wednesday. So I took a OPK yesterday and got this.

I retested this morning and I got this.

I went and got clear blue digital tests to be sure and it showed an open circle.

I am so confused. Any advice guys?

Answer

The digitals need to be used at least a few days before ovulation because they compare, so in this case I would trust the sticks. You were ovulating or are about to.

Answer

You could have missed it. If you suspected it was O day you should test several times. Digital tests need to learn your personal levels. You can’t do one test and have it be accurate. It can take a few cycles. You’re better off with cheap opks. Your doctor should do a progesterone level 7 days after suspected O to confirm it

Answer

To above comment, that’s not how OPK’s work. The “peak” is not when you’re about to ovulate. My doctor told me it could be more than 48 hours after your positive OPK. You should BD two days before and up to 4 days after your OPK. Glow also does not show accurate fertile days.
