Can you ovulate twice in one month?

I have heard that ovulation can only happen once per cycle.
Can you get a pre ovulation happen afew days before? I have been tracking my cycle. Every month like clockwork, I'm getting cramps on cd9/10, and getting a faint positive ovulation test. I then get cramps again anywhere from dc14-cd18, and get a dark positive ovulation test.

What's going on with my body? I get a regular period that starts anywhere from cd25-cd28.

Generally no.

Ovulation tests test for lutenising hormone. It's normal to have some of that in your urine quite far before you ovulate as it increases in amount until you ovulate so there would be a line on earlier tests but they are not positive. What triggers ovulation is a surge of LH (measured by a much darker test, eg where the test line is darker than the control line).

No. From when i was reading the pregnancy boards here years ago 😂 the faint positive on ovulation tests don't equal ovulation. Its only when its very dark. If u test any other day it will always have faint positive , It aswell can show pregnancy 😂
