Hi . Im 35 first time trying for a baby. I have pcos and I'm still new to reading opks.
Are these tests looking like they are positive or getting positive? The high readings are from today. I did 2 tests this morning and one this afternoon. The low reading from yesterday and day before .

Last month I had a clear positive 1.92 super duper dark ,and fertile super stretchy cm

This month I got these opks this afternoon ..I've had pains around ovary since 25th for few days . No pain today or yesterday but was .. then got a higher reading on opk today.
Went from low to high today except my cm is not fertile mucus? There's not alot of it and it's clear with opaque cream bits but not stretchy. Won't stretch in the slightest bit.
I've been reading if you don't have ewcm it can be a sign your not ovulating properly . I do have pcos, and I'm ovulating quite late this month if i am. I'm on cycle day 30. Last cycle I ovulated day 20 peak. So quite a difference. My period was long this month like 10 days
It's usually only 5 or 6.

Anyone had any experience. Would you say I'm not ovulating then since I've no fertile cm?

Hiya
how long are your cycles? Your LH can surge before AF arrives so might be that?

@MrsSB2023 oh I've never heard of that but it could be a possibility @xMoonbabyx
Im currently in similar boat , I have pcos too so my cycle length really varies. I'm on cycle day 33 and had high today aswell but no ewcm , I had pain in ovary which i get with ovulation .. but then I've also had terrible period pains all week aswell which has confused me so the lh surge before period has me wondering

Looks like you'll be ovulating in the next few days, as those OPKs are definitely getting dark.

In regards to EWCM, I wouldn't worry too much about it. Not everyone gets EWCM and it doesn't mean you don't ovulate. It just might make it harder for the sperm to travel up and stay alive for as long.

@xMoonbabyx @MK85 how did you guys get on?

Also have PCOS, been seeing alot if people here using easy@home strips but apparently they're not so accurate for women with PCOS. How have they worked out for you?
