Why are my ovulation strips either faint or nothing at all? Period is due in 12 days.

Question

I have been testing since last Wednesday 8/6. I have had only very, very faint LH or nothing at all, I have mostly been testing twice a day 1 about midday and next one later in day so about 8pm ish. According to Glow and another fertility app I should have ovulated already, and now out of my fertility window. I always get CM in my knickers, and I can always feel it (sorry to be gross) but this is first month I recall not seeing it feeling CM in knickers. I have been putting fingers inside to feel and see what my CM is like on fingers, and I've been wet, a little bit like egg white/glue. But nothing like what it's normally like every month. 
It's our first month TTC so really want us to conceive. 
Any help would be appreciated.

Answer

Keep trying. I was in the same spot. 1st cycle useing the ovulation tests and was getting very discouraged about all the faint lines, I thought I missed my ovulation especially after I fished the old tests out of the trash and saw that the lines darkened 😳 but I tested again today and finally got the surge at CD17 💃🏽 best of luck for all of us this month!

Answer

I don't usually ovulate until cycle day 18-20 with a 28 day cycle. Glow always says I should ovulate on  cycle day 14, but it adjusts when I input my opk information. I always thought opks weren't working for me until I started testing later in the month. Bases on my experiences, I would guess you haven't ovulated yet.

Have you taken a pregnancy test? It sounds like your period is late from what your post said
