First time using ovulation tests, not sure what is going on!?

Started off as expected but last 2 have been completely blank? Instructions say they should get darker and to DTD when the test line is as dark as or darker than the control line.

Had weird periods the last few months (had covid vax but only 4 weeks ago). One cycle was 5 weeks, then the next 3, then 4.5.

Any ideas? Ignorance was bliss, I am now googling early menopause 😫

Thinking about it today’s one is actually day 17, wrote the wrong day on it.

Are these the boots ones? I found them a bit crap. Just buy some clear blue ones and no squinting/guessing required.

Tesco. Ok! So expensive 😄 but probably worth it if at least to save the menopause panic.

You can get 20 of the pink clear blue OPKs online for about £25. Assuming you can get at least 4 cycles out of those they aren’t really that expensive. I only managed one cycle squinting at the lines before going to the CB ones! Your CD14 test does look reasonably dark - it’s possible you missed your peak. Are you testing in the afternoon and holding your urine before taking the tests? X
