Hi so for context its 4 days before my period and i took an ovulation test expecting it to be very faint but both lines are practically the same shade? Would this happen around the time your period is due please?

Hey OP, I commented on your other post too - these don't look positive for an ovulation test x

You can get a surge of LH just before your period so can get a stronger ovulation test. Here aren’t positive though so doesn’t indicate you’re ovulating.

No - you always have some level of the hormone the ovulation strips test for, so it’ll always show a line (even if very faint). Those aren’t positive lines, they need to be darker than the control line 🙂

Ovulation tests can detect pregnancy wayyyy before FRERs so if you're def not ovulating then it's likely to be pregnancy. This is how I found out I was!

Can you have a high surge straight after your period literally the day you finish?

tiffxxx · 10/01/2025 18:40

This is mine I don't know if you can see it but the first one is a little darker then the other

Two days before your period you’d expect a feint positive o pregnancy tests.
