possible pcos and OPKs

lynn1216 · Apr 1st, 2012, 23:22 PM

Hello! I havent had a period since ending birth control in Oct., so its been almost 6 months and i know i should see a dr about but im hesitant lol
but anyways! On the 27 i tried using OPKs to just double check that i wasnt ovulating and the first one was a faint line, then it got strong and strong til on the 29th im pretty sure its positive! (pic posted)
then it stayed that dark for like a day, then yesterday it was light, and today theres pretty much no second line at all.

Did i ovulate? I heard that people with PCOS, ( my dr suggested i might have it, no tests have been done yet) get fake positive on OPKs, but do they naturally fade in and out like that?
ugh how do you know?!

I have heard before that PCOS can give false + OPKs. You may want to talk to a doctor or something about it to be sure though.
