Is this a + for ovulation? Please Help!

[Warsop87]

Hey ladies! I am currently on CD21 I believe and I had taken this ovulation test yesterday. I wanted to know if y'all think it is a + for ovulation... I tool one today as well and it's way lighter than yesterday.

I'd interpret that as a "yes". It's a little hard to tell but it looks pretty darn close, especially if your other symptoms line up.

My last period was 28 May. I'm supposed to start my next cycle 25 June. I've taken three pregnancy tests and all were -. I've been cramping off and on for almost 2 weeks now. I must be too early to test for HCG...

Sorry, meant to say "took" not tool...

I'm confused, did you confirm O and this is a second positive lh test? I'm not sure why you would be testing at CD 21 if you hadn't confirmed O. So trying to wrap my head around things. It looks positive to me, but I am not familiar with the brand. If it was lighter today, then I would think you Oed late which would also explain the negative pregnancy tests. I of it was from a pregnancy/hcg then it should be dark today as well and the hpt would have been positive.

No, I have taken three OPK tests within the past three days because I have been cramping over two weeks now. I have a bicournate uterus so I figured I'd take an ovulation test to see if I ovulate twice a month rather than once. I never checked around the 14th day though so I'm not sure if its.late ovulation or two ovulations?

The test I posted was an ovulation test. I took two hcg tests, one last night and this morning but both were negative. If I ovulated late and my period should be here around the 25th then when should I take an hcg test?

Gotcha thank you for the info. Just wasn't sure because some women try to use lh tests as hpts since they are cheaper. Gonna have to google that. I have a thing where I often O two eggs, but they release within a day of each other.

If you ovulated late turn your period will be late. Your ovulation date and length of your luteal phase determines your cycle length. Your lp is static, O day not. So I Oed last cycle on CD 11, and the cycle was 23 days long. This cycle I ovulated late (CD 18) so my cycle will be 30 days. So I would start testing 10 days from the positive opk (about 9dpo) because I am an early tester lol.

Have you considered temping? It really clears up a lot and is not as annoying as it sounds

I was thinking about it today actually. I may get one tomorrow just to see what it says.

Weird thing is though, I've been crampy for two weeks now off and on, dizzy, and a lot of discharge....

I love temping because you can't argue with it hehe. I'm a huge symptom spotter and it has broken my heart before because of my anxiety, but I can't argue with temps. A simple bbt thermometer would work. CVS sells them for like $11 near the pregnancy tests. You can get cheaper if you go online. But even if you start post O you can get a general idea especially since you have some opk data.
