Every day “low” OPK but I do get EWCM?

[SGC0]

I don’t know whether to believe my body or the Easy @ Home kits!

For two months now I have been doing the OPK, but all I get is “low” readings, between 0.17 and 0.4.

I have a regular 27/28 day cycle. On CD11 I get EWCM.

Am I ovulating or not?!

How often are you testing?

There's a good chance you are just missing your surge and that you are ovulating.

It's a good plan to test very frequently in the early days until you get a positive OPK and have a better idea of when it happens.

I'd suggest testing three times a day, morning, after lunch and evening (bumper pack of multiple one step internet cheapy OPKs good for this) from day 10 of your cycle up to day 16.

Once you've (hopefully) had a positive test you can narrow down the window of when you're testing.

Had I only tested in the mornings, I would have never got a positive OPK but once I'd discovered this I found I was ovulating almost like clockwork on the same day every month which made planning much easier.

Thanks @INeedNewShoes, I’m doing it once or sometimes twice a day. I can definitely increase this, what times do you aim for when you test?

I did something along the lines of

1. 7am or whenever I woke up

2. around lunchtime

3. 7pm ish

Wow @INeedNewShoes, I just tested and got 0.54 High - amazing! Thanks so much for the tip, I’ll do a third test before bed!
