Pic - where was my peak?

Hi, this is my first month using strips and the app.
Does this look right? I'm not sure if the 'peak' it's highlighted is actually the peak... I can see the test line is darker than the control line but I think my second to last test is darker overall?
Any insights welcome this is all quite confusing when you don't know the ins and outs!

Hi lovely, your peak was on CD14 because you can see it then went down on the next day.
the time doesn’t matter :)
you are supposed to ovulate 24/48 hours after the peak. I tend to ovulate 12 hours later
so I always DTD on peak day and after peak day. I hope this helps xx

Hi @WF1990,I'm curious, how do you know exactly the time you ovulate?

WF1990 · 04/09/2025 20:35

I get ovulation pains each month , it’s not exact science but pretty telling :)

Hi all

I’m panicking a bit. I took evening primrose oil until today (my ovulation day), and I just found out I should have stopped before ovulation! I’m also taking mucinex. Really worried now…

Why are you worried? There's no evidence those things have an impact whatsoever on ovulation or likelihood of getting pregnant. Kindly, I think you need to take a step back and try to not get worried about little things such as these otherwise your TTC journey will be plagued with anxiety and overthinking.

I also get ovulation pain but that tends to last for a whole day so I couldn't tell precisely when I ovulate in that time period
