Ovulation Tests

[Delilah7]

Hi ladies.

Right after having a negative test I'm concerned my flo app I use was not reliable for my ovulation day's.

What do you guys use or is it best to get OPK's?
Thanks :)

I used clearblue. I would test from 5-7 days after my period and would compare to my estimated ovulation days. I used them for 3 months after consistently ovulating on day 17 of my cycle.

Hey there,

The Flo app works on average data (so assumes a 14 day LP) until you put in data that tells them otherwise.

I use CB digi and start testing from CD12 (although sometimes I wont get a positive till CD22 thanks to PCOS)

@TwittleBee
What does 14 days LP?

[TwittleBee]

14 days luteal phase (also known at the TWW - Two Week Wait). It is the part of your cycle that does not change, it is phase between you ovulating and your next period.

The average is 14 days which is why it is known at the TWW. Mine, however, is 12 days long.

@TwittleBee oh okay.

So question, I had what I thought was a period on Saturday 5th may doctor said it could of been a withdrawal bleed. In your eyes when would you work out for me to be fertile and my TWW?

[TwittleBee]

If your DR thinks it was a withdrawal bleed I would probably wait until a period happens and start a fresh from there.
