Advice on OPK

I have been using OPKs for the past 3 months and I never seem to get my peak. Any advice on this. I thought it was coming yesterday but didn't quite get there not this morning it's dropping.

Hi @HPmagic
I’ve read a lot and not all women have high LH levels, or get the surge the opk is trying to detect. It doesn’t mean you’re not ovulating though.

I would go by your darkest lines, so looks like CD17 is your peak

I’d recommend using the Clearblue digital tests next month though. They take the guess work out of it and a lot less stressful!

I got the same the first cycle I used them.

I have now figured out that my LH surge is best detected in the afternoon. So I normally test after 3pm 3/4 days before ovulation day.

Hope that helps x
