Ovulation ?

[Chris.]

OKay so I've been charting my temps everyday and my chart has shown no sign of ovulating yet, and according to my temps and cervical mucus my best fertile days to conceive were 6 days before the 'forcasted' fertile times and ovulation date. And according to my temps and chart my most fertile time is 6th cycle day until the 10th cycle day. So since my chart hasn't shown that I've ovulated I also bought a ovulation kit and I just started taking them 3 days ago, and it wasn't darker than the control line and in the last 3 days it's gotten lighter and tonight it was almost barely there, so does that mean I've already possibly ovulated??? I'm so confused....

possibly. because the OPK tests for LH, and when the test line is darker or the same color as the reference line, that's when you're LH is highest and chances of ovulation are likely.

have you been looking at your CM (discharge) and stuff too?

Yeah my test line has was just a little lighter than the control line 3 days ago, then today it was just barely there...
And yep, I've been checking my CM as well, and according to that even I was most fertile on my 6th-10th cycle day...which I think is early isn't it? I'm just so confused as to when and if I ovulated....

My charts aren't even showing that I ovulated or anything, it's weird.

Its possible that you didn't ovulate...I know I dont every month. I'm no charting expert but I've used the opks a lot. Good luck!

I agree. Or that your a late ovulater. I have PCOS and after 9.5 years I did conceive my son. But it took fertility medication because I didn't ovulate. (probably coulda conceived earlier but I had no idea I wasnt ovulating) I found this out thru opk's and such.

Keep in mind not ALL women ovulate every single month. It can be normal to skip a month and not all women ovulate on day 14. Yours could be much later. I would keep temping. Temping is a very accurate way to determine if ovulation is happening. Just make sure you take your temp at the exact same time each morning before getting out of bed etc. You should immediatly pop that thermometer in your month upon waking before doing anything else.

G'luck to you

I think you may have either ovulated before you started using the OPK's, or you didn't ovulate this month
