Ovulation tests and pregnancy

[Sarahbelle25]

Does anyone know can ovulation tests actually pick up an early pregnancy? I think I might be pregnant, im currently on baby safe nitro and since I had ovulation tests at home I thought I'd see what happened. I know I ovulated almost two weeks ago for definite as I had all the right Signs at the time. So I'm now wondering why my first vue has given me a very pale pink line to say I'm ovulating when I'm actually due af on either Monday next week or Tuesday. Not sure if it's visible through the camera, but it's definitely there and it's a light pink line. It came up within two to three minutes of me taking the test,

That isn’t a positive ovulation test OP. For an ovulation test to be positive the test line needs to be darker than the control line, there is almost always 2 lines on ovulation tests. The one in the photo is negative.

Yes as the above poster said. Unlike a pregnancy test where sometimes, if early testing, you squint for a line - OPK’s will near always have some form of second line. When the test line is as bold and dark (or darker) than the control line you are ovulating.

And if you are pregnant you'll have a blazing second line - they do pick up HCG, and you'd get a strong result even in very early pregnancy.

Hi OP, this is what an OPK showing HCG looks like at 9DPO. The OPK is the blue one at the bottom, the pregnancy tests are above. The pregnancy tests were positive, though very faint, and the OPK was very visible.

As mentioned above, if the OPK were picking up HCG, it would be a lot darker. Hope the reference pic helps :). Best of luck.

As others have said ovulation tests pretty much always have a line.
A positive ovulation test is when the second line is as dark or darker than the control line. So having a faint second line is not a positive.
When I took an ovulation test when I was pregnant it was a blazing positive. The line was much darker than the control line.

Thank you all for your help, I appreciate it.
