OVULATION TESTS

[Jennboy]

I have pcos and I had a period 20th - 23rd of Jan. Starting testing CD10 and on CD13 got slightly darker lines (not as dark as the control line) could I have ovulated? I had the slight feeling near my right hip of cramping but no change in cervical mucus, picture isn't brilliant but it's clear to see the darker 2, so confused !!

Do you have regular periods? If not then ovulation tests often can cause false readings so take what they say with a pinch of salt - taking your temperature is more accurate (look at fertilityfriends) and looking for signs of ovulation.

I have been recently but they be not always been. Thank you! Will definitely have a look

Mine were anything from 2-11 days late and I was told anything over 2 days of your normal probably means you aren't ovulating (so you don't need to be a standard cycle, just what is normal for you)

That makes more sense, my periods use to be 1 ever 3/4 months for 7 to 14 days but since having the coil out it's been every month for 4/5 days, docs haven't been telling me anything
