Basically two different apps are telling me different ovulation dates.

According to one app the more reliable one I ovulated last Sunday 16.6.23. But I've had this ovulation test today, could I still be ovulating and the app is off a few days?

I'm soooo confused😭😭

Is this possible ?

That’s a negative ovulation test.

What even tho you can see faint line? Sorry it's my first time using these tests whilst TTC .

Unless the test line is as dark as, or darker than, the control line, it's a negative test. I didn't realise til I checked on here too at the time I was TTC.

I hope your TTC goes well Flowers

No worries!

They're expensive but I found the digital clearblue tests really helpful as they give a definitive answer (through flashing smiley faces on days you're fertile and static smiley faces on ovulation day) so remove the second guessing.

They really helped us with timings which as I'm sure you've realised are an absolute bloody minefield!

Also have a Google of the sperm meets egg method, which is also helpful.

Apps are useless. Use a clearblue

Those cheapie sticks are fine to use you just have to be testing twice per day from cycle day 8 to get a good idea of when you ovulate instead of trusting the app.

That test is negative BTW, you will always have a 2nd faint line on OV tests because we always have LH in our system, a positive is when the line is as dark as or darker than the first line. Have a Google and it will show you pictures
