No LH surge after peak time?

Question

Hello 😊 me and my hubby to be have been TTC for just over 7 years. i have recently been put on Metformin for PCOS and to hopefully help with fertility.  I have been using the Clear Blue digital ov tests for 10 days now with no smiley 😟 but on here says my higgest peak was yesterday (Mon)?! Could it that I just haven't released an egg yet maybe or could the Metformin be the culprit? Any ideas please?

Answer

i have pcos and have been on metformin for 5 years and i have NEVER ovulated on it. We have been trying for 6 years and have done over 6 months of fertility treatments and still never ovulated. We have had to switch up and up doses.

Answer

I would invest in cheaper test strips if you have PCOS. You're ovulation could really be all over the place, so you can't go by glow. You should go on amazon, get the cheap tests in bulk and test every day. 
My fertility clinic also suggests the keto diet for PCOS, as it helps reduce inflammation, and can help with the insulin resistance associated with PCOS. Which in theory, should help with egg quality and ovulation.
Good luck!

Answer

Glow can only guess when you will ovulate based on what is "normal" and the data you put in every month. Mine has been off by at least a day or two the past several months. I know that I have seen ladies on here way that they ovulate way later or earlier than Glow predicts. It's all just unique to your body and cycle. 
When I first started using OPKs, it took a month or two to catch a LH surge. Sometimes you don't test at exactly the right time to detect the surge, sometimes you're testing at the wrong time in your cycle. Don't give up!
