Ovulation help?

[Rosie2228]

hello, im Quite new to ovulation testing and this is my first month tracking! I’ve always had ovulation pain and the last few months have always known when my ovulation was. I’ve done tests on just that day and had a higher ovulation line then the test. I’ve never tracked before. I had ovulation pain yesterday, but don’t think it shows in my LH. I missed some tests due to working 12+ hour shifts but tests asap. Do you think I missed it or it’s coming? Before day 15 it was 0.1 so haven’t included those. Thanks

Just a note, I’ve used both brands and they’ve always shown the same number on the app. Just incase anyone thinks I’m mixing and matching :)

Been a while since I tracked but I remember with the first month it didn't tell me when my peak was until the tests started getting lighter because it doesn't know what's high lh for you until it's got the data if that makes sense?

From what I can see cycle day 18 is your highest, but it probably needs them to go right back down before it could tell you that was your peak

Is it normal for it to be low? It’s so confusing. Everyone I’ve seen Have 1.0+ for their peaks. I’m so worried theirs something wrong 🥲

Keep testing as ovulation pain often comes before ovulation.

I can't answer that sorry, I don't know how much is can vary person to person, or whether it can indicate an issue.

It may be that it's not your peak yet, your highest one yet and the subsequent 2 tests were all on cycle day 18 so could be just fluctuations or that your urine was more diluted 🤷‍♀️

I wouldn't stress about it at this point, it's your first month tracking. Just keep tracking and see what happens with your levels. If they stay fairly low maybe check with your gp whether that's normal? I don't like to recommend googling as it can cause more worry, but I'm sure you could find some information about lh testing online if you wanted to do that. Wishing you luck 😊

Thank you for the help both of you. 😊

My mam had several failed rounds of ivf and many ongoing fertility issues so it’s always been a worry.

This cycle I missed my peak. The highest I got was 0.9. My surge is very fast. I know I definitely ovulated as I had day 21 progesterone test which was 52.6. Anything over 30 shows a strong ovulation. Sometimes you will miss your peak if you have a fast surge so don’t panic too much and stressing can delay ovulation

you can also have more than one LH surge.

I would keep testing and make sure you have at least a 2-3 hour hold before taking a test
