3-4 DPO positive flashing OPK? Has anyone ever had this?? I'm so confused. I know I ovulated for sure on the 23rd due to ovulation cramps/pain. I am feeing light dull cramps now, reason why I took this OPK. Anyone had this happen to them?

Question

Answer

I would chalk it up to fluctuating LH levels around ovulation. Really these tests can be confusing and there is no reason to be testing at 3dpo. Try to hold out until your missed period, good luck!

Answer

Thanks ladies!! I did not want to test but figured I would test my OPK since I have been cramping hence wanted to see if it was lingering ovulation cramps. Fingers crossed and praying for patience during this 2ww.. baby dust to those of you trying!!

Answer

The OPK with the three options: open circle, smile, and flashing smile was too confusing for me. I switched to open circle and smile. I don't have any advice, they confused me too much.

Answer

You'll almost always show flashing smiley after ovulation because your LH stays elevated for your luteal phase (aka two week wait). The instructions on those tests tell you not to continue testing if you get 9 days of high readings. I got them for 7 days, 3 beyond what my expected ovulation day was, and stopped. Felt like I was wasting them.
