LH surge before AF or...?

I will try and make this as easy to understand as possible...

I took ovulation tests every 12 hours Sept 16th-19th and had one positive test on the 17th which is the date I was expecting LH surge. The tests around that one had a fainter control line than the test line so I discounted those.

SO - from that positive test I assumed I'd had an LH surge/possible ovulation had occurred on the expected date.

Partner and I slept together on the 16th and 17th Sept, and my period is due to occur this Friday 4th Oct.

For some unbeknown reason I took an ovulation test at 7ish this morning, two weeks to the day that I had my last positive ovulation test result. To my eyes it shows the control and test windows to be the same depth of colour...so I took a second, third and fourth test throughout the day and they all show two distinct lines (please see pictures attached).

Could these tests indicate the LH surge which occurs before a period?? (as mentioned above period is due in 2 days) or I have also read that ovulation tests can be used as pregnancy tests?? I can't get an actual pregnancy test until late tomorrow.

Advice appreciated.

Correction - this sentence should say "The tests around that one had a fainter TEST line than the CONTROL line so I discounted those."

Oh wow, really?! Did you test before your period was due? Yes I definitely will be getting a proper test.

@OhBabyBabyItsAWildWorld yes I got a really strong ovulation test a few days before period! Did a pregnancy test and had a faint line! Can sometimes indicate pregnancy! Do a test 🤞🏼

Update: took a preg test...well, took 4 tests and all positive! So, the ovulation tests definitely indicated pregnancy for me 2 days before I was due. I'm in shock. There are 2 lines on each of these tests...right?! Shock
