About how many days after af ends will you get a positive ovulation test?

Textbook cycle O would be 14 days after start AF.

Yes totally depends - whatever your average cycle length is, take 2 weeks off and that’s your O date. I always had long cycles (36-40 days) and would ovulate between day 18 and 20. So it just depends on you personally, but the other poster was right that standard is day 14

It varies for everyone and sometimes cycle to cycle. I usually ovulated CD11 or CD12, but it varied between CD9-CD14. Try using OPKs from soon after af finishes, once they turn positive you should ovulate within a couple of days of the positive. But that varies too, some ovulate the same day, some two or even three days after and sometimes you have more than one day of positive OPKs. Only real way to know when you ovulate is by temping each cycle to get an idea of your usual pattern
