Peak day confusion

Does anyone know why it's saying my peak was yesterday even though today I've got a much darker line and it's apparently low? 🤔 first time I've used the Femometer app and it's just baffles me.

Think it may be the lighting in the pictures. I found Premom to be more useful for digital analysis of lines (attached pictures)

Wow yours go so dark! Okay I might try that one then and see if it's any different. I've got the thermometer but doubt I'll use it will just get even more confused

You say that but your most recent one is darker than the control line which means that you had a "stronger" peak than me :) I just think the app has misread the test properly. I had issues with both apps until I got the exact position / lighting to take photos.

It is darker than the control line actually never had that before! Today is supposed to be ovulation day according to the app, so I thought I'd have got a stronger line a day or two ago! I just need to mess around with both apps don't I
Thanks for your advice

You've probably tried this, but I can't really get on with ovulation tests so we just had sex every other day as well. That was it. I got pregnant three times doing this and it's what my friend who is a GP recommended.

It takes the guess work out of looking at the lines because they can vary so much. The month I got pregnant with DS2 I never even got a peak so I was gutted and then shocked!

I know what you mean, I've spent too much time anaylising the opks.
Yeah we do every other day too just not having any luck 😩 usually have bad ovulation pains every month haven't had any as of yet

This may be TMI but I also tracked vaginal fluild and once it went from clear to creamy went for it.

We've been trying 3 years now, so have tried everything really! I'm on metformin now too as I have pcos so I'm hoping that will make a difference, we shall see
