No LH surge?

Hi all, I have been ttc for many, many months now, but only started using OPKs a few months ago, and have used the Premom app for the last two cycles.

My cycles are regular in length (30-33 days) and I am getting cervical mucus from around day 9-13. However my peak LH test has only reached 0.7 for the past two cycles. I will continue testing this month in case it rises again, but I’m wondering is it possible to still ovulate with such a low LH peak? Has anybody been able to get pregnant with such a low LH ‘surge’?

Yes me. My surges are really low compared to most. But my baseline is almost zero so the graph still shows a dramatic rise and fall mid cycle.

Your cycle is a bit longer than average - have you continued to test to day 20 or so any of your cycles to get a comprehensive picture? Also test several times a day when you see it rise - it could be that you do go higher but that your peak is really quick.

Yes, currently pregnant (early stages) and had similar readings. Keep testing though, CD 15 was early to stop. I have suspicions I ovulated later the cycle I conceived. No peaks but I must have ovulated. Good luck.

Definitely keep testing multiple times a day.

I got my BFP this month. My cycles are the same length as yours and on cycle day 19 I got high in the morning, then peak in the afternoon then low by late night time. The next morning it was low and stayed low.
LH peak can come and go very quick.

Thanks, yes I did wonder if I should have continued testing for longer last month. What has thrown me is that I am getting CM very early, from around day 9, and then the non-fertile discharge after that, so this seemed to fit with what I thought was my peak around day 13 last month, guess I’ll carry on testing and see.

@Emilie32 and @LemonBitter congratulations on your BFPs. That gives me hope!

Definitely test twice a day OP, morning and late afternoon. I've heard surges can be really quick for some!

Also when I conceived I had my positive on day 21 (I have 31/32 day cycles). The luteal phase can be shorter than 14 days xx
