Strange OPK

Hi all
I received this result on my OPK just now.
I only just finished my period on the 11th. Seems too soon/early to get such a result?
Would you say this is positive or pretty close?
I took it today BC I'm 10dpo and we are trying the SMEP x
Thanks in advance.

Hi OP. If you're are on about CD10 then your body could be gearing up to ovulate, so I would say that your OPK looks about right. Remember, some women naturally have higher levels of LH in their system so will always get a decent second line on an OPK (myself included).

I would say that your OPK is about 25-30% (but you can download an app called Premom which allows you to take pictures of the OPK and will give you a more accurate percentage). Once the OPK is 100% or over then you may ovulate in the 12-36 hours after. But not all LH surges lead to ovulation, the only way to be sure you have ovulated is by tracking your temperature, or by getting blood tests done.

My advice would be to start testing several times a day now (maybe again early afternoon and in the early evening) to try and catch your peak. And... start DTD every other day to ensure you cover any ovulation that might occur.

@Kay00

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply! I found it strange because last month I only got a positive OPK CD20! I'm only CD 10 now. I'll def start testing twice a day and pray for the best.
Last month I didn't start seeing a build up of lines till very close to ovulation! Strange
Thanks for letting me know about the App Premom, I have now downloaded it.

Thank you again! X
