Two lines on an ovulation test? Could it indicate Pregnancy

28 replies

Lovelijubbli · 17/04/2018 17:42

Hi,

I’m getting a lot of symptoms that could be related to pregnancy including some blood on the tissue when I wiped two days ago! I took an opk today as I heard it can show if somebody is pregnant (it’s all I had , didn’t have a pregnancy test to hand) it came up with two lines ... what does that mean?

If you want to test for pregnancy then you need an HCG test! You can't rely on an LH test for that.

That's a positive LH test. The test line is darker than the control. Which means you should ovulate in the next 12-24 hours.

So not a pregnancy line? I’ve got the worst pains and ache in my lower stomach but this is probably due to ovulation approaching then xx

Could someone give me some advice, I came off the microgynon pill 3 weeks ago, had my withdrawal bleed 4 days after and now I’m feeling cramping pains for the last 2 days, feeling sick and really tired. I’ve done a test which was negative but I presume it’s too early anyway. Just done an ovulation test and it’s got 2 lines on it. Can anyone help me, I’ve googled it but finding different answers

It seems like you may be pregnant.

I know this is an oldish thread but just wondered if anyone had any ideas that would help, I'm about 10dpo, had a blazing positive opk this morning and what looks like an indent on an ic, been stung by so many evaps and indents though, is this looking hopeful? 🙈

Michelle8899 · 29/08/2024 15:40

I have been Extremely tired and have had two light periods, but my boobies are killing me! I took an ovulation test today out of curiosity, and it came out with both lines the same color and size. I’ll post a pic. Helping responses would be Great 😊

CrazyCoonz · 27/11/2019 14:03

I tested with an LH strip this month just for fun, started getting more 'surgy' on the LH strip from 8 dpo.

9 dpo it was stronger and I got a faint positive on an hcg test.

Then 10 dpo showed an LH surge but got my BFP on digital pregnancy test.

So it can work, but obviously use a pregnancy test to confirm.

Jacqui1690 · 29/11/2018 12:30

Hi ya how do I add pic on here sumbody saying my ovulation test isn’t positive but when I done it yesterday only had 1 line this morning I git 2 not feeling myself feeling really tired sick in morning I never took ovulation test before

Rose2887 · 19/04/2018 10:38

Maybe the surge in hormones whether period is due or pregnant will show a positive result.. either way mine got darker and got a positive opk before test x

Bubblegum89 · 19/04/2018 09:26

I took an opk test a few days ago as my period was late by two days. Just out of interest. It looked exactly like the one that Rose just posted. My period showed up two days later

QueenofmyPrinces · 19/04/2018 09:21

True, but it’s pretty damn close

And considering my period was due that day I thought it a strange coincidence

This was my second pregnancy and it was an OPK that I ‘tested’ with when I had my first son too and a strong second line was what led me to buying a HPT where I got my BFP.

physicskate · 19/04/2018 08:47

Neither of those are positive opks though...

QueenofmyPrinces · 19/04/2018 07:40

This was my OPK the day my period was due and I was pregnant.

Rose2887 · 19/04/2018 07:35

@Pinklily1 here we go... an almost positive opk and I’m pregnant!!! Xx

Pinklily1 · 18/04/2018 21:15

Thanks rose! Ive had an almost positive OPK, faint positive pregnancy test in the past two days and an MIA AF, so I’m curious!

dietingagainandagain · 18/04/2018 20:27

I had this and AF turned up the next day. I posted on here about it and was surprised that a positive OPK can show up just before your period as something to do with the hormones. Hope this is not the case for you

Rose2887 · 18/04/2018 20:14

I’ll check the bin when I get home @pinklily1 :) xx

Pinklily1 · 18/04/2018 19:31

Out of interest rose were the two lines as dark as each other or was the control line darker?

Rose2887 · 18/04/2018 15:18

I’m pregnant, used an opk today and got two lines so yes :)

physicskate · 17/04/2018 22:01

All of that said, some women do get a positive opk in the days before af is due and are not pregnant. I've seen that on this board often enough over the past few years.

Best advice is to use opks for ovulation and pregnancy tests for pregnancy.

CrumbliestFlakiest · 17/04/2018 21:47

My ovulation tests almost always show two lines. If the second line is at least as dark as the control line then it's positive and could indicate a pregnancy.

If the second line is fainter then it's negative and you are neighter ovulating nor pregnant.

qumquat · 17/04/2018 21:36

I found out I was pregnant from a clear blue fertility monitor. It came up as fertile despite my period being due. Cue a sleepless night for me before I could confirm with a pregnancy test!
