Can anyone help with opk questions?

[TitZilla]

Ttc, first try since miscarrying. My pregnancy was a contraceptive failure so I don’t know how to ‘try’

I bought some LH sticks but I’m a bit confused.

Fridays was blank. Yesterday’s was a pale ‘only just about there’ line. Today’s is a solid pink line but not as dark as the control line.

I understand these are all negative, but does the daily increase in colour mean that it’s getting closer to ovulation?

Thanks

Yes that what it means. Keep testing. Twice a day if you can. I’ll upload a picture of mine so you can see the progression

Thank you @mrsjones17

I don’t have Fridays or yesterday’s but this is today’s.

Once the line is showing positive does that indicate that you have, are or will ovulate?

Also, I miscarried naturally at 11 weeks (baby didn’t progress past 7/8 weeks) started bleeding on the 24th April and stopped bleeding on the 2nd May. Negative test on the 6th May. Would I be about to ovulate this early after a mc?

Sorry for all the questions but as I said I haven’t ttc before but now it’s all I can think about.

A positive tends to be fairly darker than the control, you will know when you see it :) I’ve attached a photo of my positive OPKs from the cycle I conceived. Once you’ve had a positive it usually means ovulation is imminent. Good luck!

Thank you.

So do they gradually get darker, peak at ovulation the hen gradually get lighter again?

Trying to figure out if I’m about to ovulate or if I already have

Yeah they usually get darker until they turn positive then start to fade off again. I used to do them twice a day as I got closer to ovulation- used to do one before I left the house for work and one when I got bank in again. If you use them for a few months you’ll start to see your pattern.
