So I'm due on my period like yesterday, i haven't come on and I've also had none of my usual signs that I'm coming on. I did an ovulation test which though isn't fully positive, it is almost. I did an ovulation test a week or so ago and it was completely negative, no second line. My question is, has anyone had this so close to their period due date? What happened? I'm new to this and me and my partner are trying to concieve. I have attached a picture below. I definitely haven't got my period date wrong as I am like clock work and I track it every month.

LH levels do vary throughout a cycle, mine is sometimes higher near period. Take a pregnancy test if you are late? X

Take a pregnancy test to rule it out. I don’t know about lh tests at that point, I stop testing once I get the peak and bbt confirms I ovulated.

I did, I took a pregnancy test. I had some faint last week but today it's negative (i think), I took an ovulation as I know with my 1st the ovulation was positive when I was pregnant but I'm more confused that the ovulation test has been negative (very faint or no line at all) until now but I'm now a day late 🙈🙈

LH which ovulation tests measure has a very similar molecular structure to HCG so it could be that you are pregnant, since you've done the test at this point in your cycle. It's not a reliable indicator though, you need to take a pregnancy test to be sure.

It's normal for LH levels to fluctuate. If you've had a negative pregnancy test you're not pregnant. I'm not sure where the confusion is?!

The confusion is due to having faint positive pregnancy tests last week - multiple may i add. I was mainly seeing if anyone else had experienced this and this is the best place I know of to ask! Isn't this what this app is for? To ask questions.

I haven't experienced it. Definitely worth doing another pregnancy test though, the last one might be a false negative.
It's a stressful time, all the testing and hormones everywhere. I hope you're okay.

Thank you, I'm okay I'm just very confused 🙈🙈 I'll update if my period comes and then it's starting again ❤️ we are early in TTC but it can be very overwhelming and confusing when tests come up positive faintly to then drop off to then get an almost positive ovulation test the day after my period is due 🙈
