Even though they are WTTC? Ive been tempted if im honest, just to see what my body does, but I bought some a while back and I simply couldnt be bothered, I would just forget and realise 4 days after ovulation that I should have tested!
 
I've started using the internet cheapies since having my implanon taken out although we aren't trying until december or febuary.
 
I don't use OPKs but I write down everything I'm seeing and how I feel. So I know roughly what's normal for me when I TTC.
 
I'm not using OPK's but I have already started to chart my cycles by temp reading so I have a good understanding of when things are happening (this is easier said than done since I am still waiting 6 months for AF after coming off BCP) Lol x
 
I have been using cheapie OPKs for the past couple of months but have never ever got a positive. I've started temping using Fertility Friend website this cycle so hoping that will be more helpful.

I have been using internet cheapies since i stopped the pill in august, I am just coming to the end of my 3nd cycle and have got a positive OPK every cycle so far, it always goes in line with my temp rise yay!
 
When i came off the pill i used OPKS as i was curious as to when i ovulated and that.

I am using internet cheapies while WTT (I also record other stuff like temperature). Mostly I get a faint line with these and one month I was lucky and got a dark line. Can't understand it as the people I buy from have the tests made for them and also supply them to the NHS. I do everything right, time of day, concentrated urine etc but still not a fantastic indicator. When we TTC I will switch to a clearblue for a more accurate reading as I am not 100% happy with the results of the cheap ones.
 
Im not using opk but am obsessed with charting my cycle so I know whats normal for me
 
If you don't want to chart, I don't think it's a bad idea...that way you can know if you're cycles are doing what they should.
