Question

Ovulation? How long will it show on the OPK?

I'm so confused about OPKs. Did one today, my first one ever, and it showed a line almost as dark as the control line, but I thought my ovulation was 2 days ago. So, should any lines come up AFTER ovulation is over?

There will always be some sort of line on LH tests as theres always LH to some degree, in ur system. What makes u think u O'd 2 days ago?

Okay, so there will always be some kind of a line. That helps. Mine was kinda dark though.

Cm isnt the most accurate, neither are opk's. Consider temping next cycle in combination with cm and opk's...together they can help u pinpoint a more accurate O date. But yeah, theres always LH in ur system and its pretty normal to have a surge (or dark opk's) in ur tww as well as right before af arrives. Keep bd'ing in case ur O wasnt when suspected.
Good luck! =))

OHhh!! and another thing I found intresting that not many ladies mentioned when I was getting positive OPK,s for 3 days my urine was looking abit darker and then when the lines got lighter over the days my urine was becoming lighter not sure if some ladies can spot this which i found intesting and i noticed it but everyones diffrent i guess, but just thought id mention this to you im just using cheapy OPK.s but the line has to be darker or the same colour to get a + OPK anyways GOOD LUCK !!! ;) xx

Thanks!!! The line got so much darker today! Darker than the control line! First I thought I looked at the test upside down lol I guess I was wrong about my early ovulation this month, it is actually today, on CD 14! It was my second OPK test !
