Hello,
Is this a positive OPK?

I had an ectopic pregnancy on June 27th and had surgery. Had a 5 day bleed afterwards. Surely I can't be ovulating this quickly afterwards?

I'm terrified of falling pregnant so soon after the ectopic

Any advice is welcome xx

I'm sorry to hear about your MC. I'm not an expert on any of that, but I have done a fair bit of googling on the topic of OPKs. Apparently they can pick up HCG as well as LH, so it might be that you still have a little of that in your body from your pregnancy. It could also be a positive LH reading. If you have a cheapie pregnancy test you could try that and see if you're still showing a little HCG. Pregnancy tests don't pick up LH so it would rule that out.

Thank you @CycleGirl20
I was hoping my hcg levels have dropped as it's been 2 weeks, but probably not.
Let's hope my period comes soon and I can start ttc again xx

You were right - I took a pregnancy test and it's still very dark positive. Do you know how long it takes for hcg to go once you've had a mc/ectopic surgery?x
