Ovulation testers and other methods

Hey all, I’m after some advice really. I’ve never managed to get a peak on my ovulation tests, even when I managed to conceive 2 years ago. I’ve tried cheapies, clear blue and now I’m on easy @ home. I’ve tried checking cervix (which seems more reliable to me) and my temping on my Apple Watch, haven’t had a clear indication as of yet for 2/3 months.

can anybody recommend any other methods? Or any one and the same boat? I feel as I must ovulate late in my cycle and a few days later have a period as that’s the only time I’ve noticed changes on temping.

How are you using them? I found the easy@home really good and used with the premom app. You need to make sure you aren’t using fmu, testing in the afternoon is best. Also try to test the same time each day. When approaching your fertile window test a few times a day to catch the peak. Some people only have a few hours where they peak.

your cervix moves throughout your cycle for a variety of reasons so it’s not an accurate way to track ovulation. Try checking Everyday throughout a cycle incase you ovulate earlier or later than expected

I only found out a few days ago that you weren’t supposed to use FMU which I have always been doing and only once a day, I’ve since started testing a few times day and trying to hold my urine and not drink alot (which k struggle with as I’m always drinking fluids). Oh really, only a few hours!! I did not know that. Perhaps I’m always missing it then.
