Question

Anyone use dollar store new choice OPK? What was your progression?

I took a opk at 8 pm last night that was a faint line. I took it because I have EW CM and my cervix was soft and open. I am on cycle day 8 today.. I took one this morning.. you can see it in the ovulation test image gallery. It is almost the same color but not quite. The woman i called at the company said it does not have to be darker, just the same color. I have taken these in other cycles and had no line at all... I was wondering if anyone sees a steady progression when using these? Should I test tonight or tomorrow morning? If its pos tomorrow that means O in 24-48 according to the box. so cd 10 or 11? Because I would be O ing earlier would that mean a shorter cycle and I should expect AF earlier, around CD 23? THANKS!!

I should also add that I posted two pics, the first was a pic I took at about 3 min.. the second I took at about 8 min and its way darker. The box says read within 10 min. this is the image #127056 - Category: Ovulation Test - Posted by loulousi

I used OPK's that I got off of amazon. They are just dip strips and I am sure are the same quality as the dollar store ones. I tested two days prior to ovulating and it was clear they were negative. My first obvious positive was on Saturday and then again on Sunday. By Monday it was negative. I have also heard you should test in the afternoon for OPK's unlike HPT tests where you should in the morning. Since it's difficult to pinpoint your exact ovulation date, I went with Sunday to start my count since it does say within 12-48 hours. Hope this helps.

Good luck!

You need to test late morning and late afternoon...this way you can catch your surge! You can be positive in am and negative by pm...that is why you should test twice ;)
