Someone help me understand please.

Hey all
new to ttc baby no1

been using clear blue ovulation test (never done them before so I don’t really understand them) to track ovulation I didn’t ovulate when I thought I was going to I got a peak on the 12th last period was 20th April. Just did an ovulation test out of curiosity and it’s got a faint line. Haven’t had AF yet as I don’t know when I’m due on now as I ovulated later.

if someone could help me understand how they work I’d appreciate it :)

Ovulation tests always have a second line but the test is only positive if they are the same darkness or test line is darker than control line.

Do have you got an app that you record results on? The faint line should start getting darker each day till you reach peak ovulation then start fading again. We used an app and after 2 months we started seeing a pattern it also notified us when it was peak time. You can use charts and things but sometimes I struggled to tell if it was darker/lighter (also try to take pictures to compare in same place with same lighting)

Is this a digital ovulation test? If so it needs to be put into the reader.

It looks like my clearblue fertility monitor tests
