Did you take a test on the 3rdMy app says I ovulated on Aug 2nd, but I’m so confused by these tests. The left one is Aug 2nd the right one is Aug 4th. Did I not ovulate yet? I also have a pain in my left hip, comes and goes but is there when I walk or cough. Please help me.

I didn’t because I ran out of them and didn’t make it to the store!Did you take a test on the 3rd
Okay, Thank you so much!I'd say start bd every 2 to 3 days and continue to test you could be close to your peak there could still be time x
I've never used that type but with the ones I have the test is positive only when the test strip is darker than (or equal to)the control. None of those look positive to me. Did you have a darker one before these?
So for example this month I got darker than control on cd13 and cd14, then a bit lighter on cd15. You take the first darkest day as peak and I will likely have ovulated on cd14.
Like pink says above dtd every 2nd day throughout the fertile window is your best bet, good luck!! X
Its possible you could've peaked within those days, but i would keep testing in case it should keep going down if you've already ovulated or get darker/test line match the control or go darker if not. My peak usually drops off very quickly but it does vary for everyone
Thanks so much for the response! I will keep testing. Is it best to test once a day at the same time?
Got it, thank you!I test at all random times but I've heard abround lunch time/early afternoon is good (as long as you aren't insanely hydrated and dilutes the pee). I test twice around or more when i can see it rising (i use one step off ebay so i dont feel bad using so many). I have tested an hour after a test got a peak, tested an hour after i got the peak and it had already turned negative by then. So within two hours i would've missed peak if i didn't test! Crazy. Now i seem to get a peak for around 24 hrs on tests (or very close to it).
Neither of those tests are positive, so going just by them I'd say you didn't ovulate yet. It's possible that you missed your surge, but I think it's better to keep on testing. As long as there are lines of that strength on your tests, just bd once every second day to be safe and you can up it to once a day for 2or3 days once you reach your peak. You can download the app PREMOM to help you read your tests if you want.
Best to test once a day around 2pm to 4pm. And if it gets really close to positive you can add a test at 9am (or just use second urine of the day).
It does look like you've missed your peak or its just delayed
