Is this because of the cyst?

So ive opk’s and a preg, the faintest lines ever on all of them, done over the last 3 days, period was due today. Could this be because i have an ovarian cyst and its messing with my hormones? I know its normal for some women to get lines on opks all the time but ive done them on the day my period is due loads of times and i always get a total blank, never a line unless it the week before ovulation and then i get stronger lines then a positive then its back to a blank test. This month i had a positive ovulation on two days running!

Help ladies, wtf is my body doing 😫

I would wait and do another one tomorrow. Every day the line will get stronger if you are pregnant. Keeping fingers crossed for you!!

You can say that again! Good thing is the clinic were worried it would mess up my cycle and period was only a day late so hopefully still on track to start in jan 🤞🏼

Hey...Are they pregnancy tests or OPKs? If pregnancy tests a cyst doesn't produce the pregnancy hormone HCG and wouldn't influence test results. What cycle day are you? Do you track ovulation? x

Yes i do track ovulation and know i ovulated twice on day 20, but cysts can also affect that ive been told by thr dr. Im on day 32. Period usually comes on day 31 x

I often get lines on OPKs just before AF arrives, but if its positive on pregnancy tests a BFP is a BFP! x

Well guys top ones are preg tests bottom are opk, lines on all, but although the bleeding stopped earlier it just started again so i think the cyst has caused false positives 😱xx

I wouldn’t count the opk but I would do another pregnancy test tomorrow or next day
