OPK concern....

[wishn2Bmom]

Sooooo, I'm going to post this in TTC as well I think, so sorry if any of you come across it twice

So I have recently concluded two cycles of IVF. Obviously it didn't work for me, so back to the grind. Before IVf I ovulated on a very early day 9/10 regularly. During the IVF cycles because of the drugs I didn't ovulate until day 20 and day 16. I know for some people their cycle can change after all of that, so I have decided to use OPKs for a few months. Today was cycle day 9 for me and i've been poas for a few days and they are showing a line, but BARELY. It's not getting darker either.

My question (after being long winded)- Have any of you used the "Answer" brand OPK and noticed them not working very well? Or even not as well as other grocery store brands?

I'm a little concerned maybe i'm jacked up now

a light line on opk is normal, but negative! you probaby havent ovulated yet or are not near ovulation yet. it is normal to have some progesterone in your body at lower levels. keep testing! when are you testing? i have heard mornings are inaccurate because you naturally have higher levels. no matter when i test i always have a slight line throughout my whole cycle!

Thanks for the input!

I've been testing in the evening, just like I always did before IVF cause I heard the same thing. I'm going to keep testing for at least another week, but I feel like i'm still on schedule for a day 10 ovulation (tomorrow) So there should be more of a line than that. Especially since i'm breaking out like always and i've got some EWCM..... hmmm mystery.

Maybe this brand is just crap.

If nothing ever shows i'm probably going to call the FS, but will be completely embarrassed if these one's just suck! Hence my checking with you knowledgeable ladies first
