I had a chemical early september at about 5 weeks. If I treated the first day of bleeding as day 1 of my cycle today would be day 17. My opks have been raging positives since the first day after bleeding but pregnancy tests been returning negative all this time. How on earth do I know when im ovulating? Has anyone experienced this? I havent been tracking bbt and a bit late now for this cycle I think.

It's because you've still got HCG in your system, once that drops you'll get negative ovulation tests and can then start afresh.

Even though pregnancy tests have been negative for over 2 weeks?

Depends on the test sensitivity - LH cheapy strips like premom ones on Amazon will pick up even very slight traces of HCG which a standard pregnancy test would miss. But once your body settles it will drop and you'll be able to spot your peak again. I know it's hard - I was frantic after my early miscarriage. But got pregnant with my daughter a month later x
