Positive opk twice in a month?!

Okay so, I ovulated (had all the symptoms and positive opk) cycle day 13. Kept checking on opks for a couple days after which were negative, then went on a couple of days away with husband so no testing.

Jump to today, I've decided to do another opk when I got home to check it was staying down and I've just got a blazing positive opk. I'm so confused 😭

Any insights?

I had a chemical recently. Got a static and assumed I had ovulated, confirmed with cheapy test. Then got another static 8 days later, confirmed with cheapy again and then got a positive digital HCG test 6 days later so I must have ovulated the first time! Not sure what the second surge was about!!

Oh interesting, maybe I should check for pregnancy in a week and then if not, next week. Sorry to hear about your chemical ❤️

Yes, I would definitely do that. Worth checking. Good luck.

Took a test this morning (9dpo) but looks bfn.

Took 2 more opks

Positive opk twice in a month?!

I dont want to be giving false hope but it does strike me, from what I have read, that quite a few ladies seem to have constant quite high LH after ovulation. I think I need something about it stimulating the corpus luteum to produce progesterone and then, if an embryo implants, HCG comes into play. Not sure whether the high LH could be a result of a high signal to the CL to start producing large quantities of progesterone because implantation is starting. Just another possibility, but...

Read not need

So if I look at first time I had a peak I'm 12dpo, took a test but bfn. But now I'm thinking maybe second ovulation might have been true ovulation which puts me at 5dpo or so. What a rollercoaster!

No sign of PMS or usual symptoms before AF

It is indeed. Have you checked LH today? I got a barely visible bfp at 12 dpo with my recent double surge chemical. It was really, really faint but all a bit of a mystery really. Yes, it’s looking like you may have ovulated on the second surge but ifvyourcLH is still high that seems odd. I just accidentally started another thread on this topic. Half the time I can’t remember what I’ve started/written them I haven’t!! 🥰

ThatGreenPlayer · 02/08/2024 19:42

Okay I maaaay have got the faintest of faint bfp on a cheapie tonight. Husband is convinced but has binned until we test again 😂 think if AF doesn't appear tomorrow (which is doesn't feel like it will) maybe I ovulated late like we think in which case it would be a 7dpo bfp...

Not too hopeful in case it's an indent though so time will tell!

I am crossing everything for you. So hard to tell with the tests when they are faint. Give it another couple of days and test again I suppose. All so stressful isnt it.

ThatGreenPlayer · 03/08/2024 07:36

Thank you, yeah it's the longest cycle of our life!

I bet it is too. It all goes to slowly!!

Carportforme · 09/08/2024 15:32

ThatGreenPlayer, how are you doing? Any definitive news yet? I am now well beyond the date my AF should have started based on Clear Blue Digital static smiley. They are, as a company, pretty insistent that their products are always right, but!! Not sure if I will be using them moving forwards. I'm not sure I trust them now.

ThatGreenPlayer · 10/08/2024 13:59

Looking life AF will come on time today or tomorrow, I'm starting to get cramps. So when it does I suppose mystery solved on when I actually ovulated! Another month, new opportunity ✨ have you taken a pregnancy test?

OP posts:
Carportforme · 10/08/2024 21:25

Ahhhh, as you say, new month, new opportunity. Still thinking of doing a test. I am now slightly overdue for AF if I ovulated on either surge! That said, I have absolutely no symptoms of AF or pregnancy and I have got symptoms quite early in in my previous lost pregnancies so I am none too hopeful on that score. I will let you know how it goes

BrodieKD · 11/08/2024 08:19

I've had similar this month. I got a static smile on CD8 and on CD16 🤷🏻‍♀️ CD8 was very early for me. I'm either 8dpo or 1dpo.

Carportforme · 11/08/2024 13:35

Well AF showed up this morning. Quite grateful that it has arrived so I can start again but that likely means I ovulated on the second surge, shown on the cheap strip test and not the one suggested by the expensive Clear Blue test!!

ThatGreenPlayer · 11/08/2024 15:02

AF showed up for me too this morning. Roll on the next month. Are you going to track again this month?

It's very annoying isnt it! I think you just have to hope they are the only surges!
