Hi all, Should I test two weeks after sex or two weeks before my period is due to start? Cycle is 43 - 45 days long and I am all confused. Had a smiley face on the opk on Monday if that helps? :~

opk test or pg test??

pg test should be when you are due af or later. Sounds like you know about opks?

OPK postive on Monday probably means ov Mon-Weds sometime, so test 2 weeks after that.

Don't test till you have missed AF.

Ive always tested two weeks after my OPK was positive and the three times I've been pregnant it's always shown up, of course I've also tested countless times when I haven't been pregnant and again the negative tests have always been accurate as AF turned up without fail within the next 1-2 days!

If you got a smiley face on Monday, I'd wait till a week on Monday to test, and use first morning urine.

Good luck

Pg test, thanks ladies. Fingers crossed. My bbt went up today from 36.2 yesterday to 36.6 so I am hoping ovulation took place yesterday.
