Two LH peaks within 24 hours

[pineapple03]

Hi all

I had my LH surge yesterday around mid-day, then peak around 9pm yesterday, then overnight and this morning the LH levels went down as the tests were fainter than control line, but this afternoon at 4.30pm I did another test and I was shocked to see I had another peak even stronger than last night’s one

is it a double ovulation? Or is my ovulation still coming up as yesterday’s surge was irrelevant? We just DTD tonight just in case

Edited because I posted too early!

I think the latest, darkest line you had is the peak, and the first one was on the way to the peak. LH levels can be a bit lower when you test later at night or in the morning, because LH is highest in the morning, and takes a few hours to work its way through to the urine. My LH strips say if you test twice a day, to do it at 12 noon and 6 pm.

Sometimes there are two or more LH surges because the first one doesn't work to produce ovulation, and the body keeps trying. But within 24 hours, maybe it could all be part of the same surge.

Thank you!

My sister had told me that when 2 surges happen within 24 hours of each other, it could be that both ovaries ovulated, and that is how non identical twins happen lol 😆

I think that might be possible 😆 ! But not the only explanation? I thought generally even if both sides did each release an egg, they would be responding to the same LH surge so it would look basically the same on an OPK as a month where only one ovary releases an egg. I think it's also possible for one side to release 2 eggs, as another way of making non-identical twins.

In conclusion, who knows but can't hurt to keep DTD every other night? 😅Wishing you the best!
