Two lines on an ovulation test? Could it indicate Pregnancy

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?

I did! I wasn't sure if I was ovulating or due period as I'd had some niggly pains and couldn't remember when my last period was.
I did both a ovulation test and pregnancy test and got 2 lines on each of them!
(I was about 5 weeks pregnant)

If it’s positive then yes. If it’s just a line then no. We almost always have some LH Sim our system so will get some form of line on an opk all through our cycle

It can indicate pregnancy as HCG and LH are similar chemicals. But OPKs are designed to detect high levels of LH and pregnancy tests to detect low levels of HCG. So if you get a positive OPK due to pregnancy you’d probably be quite pregnant (ie you’d be late etc).
Additionally two lines is not necessarily a positive OPK (that’s only when the test line is sufficiently dark) and it is normal to have some level of LH in your pee at different points in your cycle, which would cause two lines but not a positive OPK.
Your symptoms could be ovulation or you could be having pms , or you could be pregnant but based on what you’ve said it is impossible to know.
