Hi everyone, I'm a bit confused with the easy at home opks.
There is a faint line (see photos attached) and it won't let me upload the photo for some reason!? Saying you're reading 0 there's definitely a line there.
I'm 10dpo and on cd22.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated?

Why are you testing for LH at 10DPO @GingerbreadTM ? At this point of the cycle I’d think you want to test for hCG

I can see a faint line but it’s to be expected, LH can be detected at any time in the urine

Hello! This is a negative OPK which is normal as you have already ovulated this month. For it to be positive the test line needs to be darker than the control line. I think we do always have a tiny bit of LH in our systems so I often get a feint line outside of my peak fertility days, especially if I test first thing.

I should've been more clearer sorry, I was rushing out for work.
Yes I appear to have ovulated on CD11 but was advised to keep going everyday to ensure that was definitely my ovulation date.
This is my first month using opks so was confused with a line this morning when I've been getting no lines for days.

And yes I know I can check for hcg before AF arrives 🤣

Thank you for the helpful comments xx

When I was first tracking I would always get a little line if I used FMU so started only testing in the afternoons - not sure if that helps. Crazy bodies! x

@lakejupiter I was up at 4am to use the bathroom so I was thinking a 3 hour hold and no fluids would've gave me a proper reading!
Crazy bodies is right 🙈 it's making mind go crazy too 🤯🤣
AF is due in 5days so at least I'll have another month to get it right hopefully 🤞🏼
Thank you xx
