Ovulation?

Hello so I started metformin last month, I've been having problems trying to track my ovulation. I've seen people have super dark ovulation tests and I've never gotten close to that. Does this look good so far? My ovulation was supposedly on Wednesday but I didn't have any positive tests saying that was correct.

Clearblue vs LH sticks

My Clearblue ovulation test says I’m having my peak, however my pregmate ovulation LH tests aren’t showing a dark test line. Clearblue ovulation test photo in comments. Has anyone else experienced this? Clearblue says it’s 99.9% accurate at detecting LH surge 🤷🏽‍♀️ I’m on cycle day 12

Ovulation strips

I’ve started taking conception pills and this month my ovulation muscus has increased massively and I have ovulation pains but not getting a peak. I got a peak last month but if I don’t get a peak today is this a concern to conceive?

Low fertility to peak

Hi, I’ve just started using the clear blue advanced ovulation tests. For the last two days I’ve tested twice a day (am & pm) and got the empty circle meaning low fertility. I’ve just tested this morning and I’ve got a static smiley face which means peak. So I didn’t get a flashing smiley face (high fertility) at a...

Will I ever ovulate!?

Miscarried last cycle and this is my last chance to try before my husband has to start radiation right after Christmas (and then we’re supposed to wait 4-6 months 😭), but I’m cycle day 16 or 19 today (19 days since miscarried, 16 days since something like a normal period started) and my LH tests are still all…

Is this a late ovulation?

My LH seems to keep upping & dipping, even though it’s low? Testing twice a day too. My original ovulation date was predicted on CD15 and now it’s guessing it’ll be CD18. I will keep testing to find my peak but is it normal to ovulate later in the cycle and fall pregnant? My cycles are between 27-30 days and CD1...

Cervical Checks

Has anyone had a cervical check yet? I'm 36 weeks and my doctor does a weekly cervical check starting tomorrow. I'm nervous.. is it painful? Does it feel much different from the annual routine when they feel your ovaries? Is anyone rejecting cervical checks until labor?
