increased levels of LH in urine, but this could be raised for a a few days before you get a +ve (line must be darker or as dark as control line). If you have plenty of tests, perhaps try testing later at night as well for a few days so as to ensure you don't miss the surge (as opposed to the rise IYSWIM)

Worth pointing out here that many people do not recommend OPK's as they are confusing and unreliable - you may never have high enough LH to show a +ve yet still be OVing.

Make sure you back up your tests with other signs like EWCM and cervical position.

Good Luck!!
